e; do you think that, despite every possible expert opinion available disagreeing with this, the libya intervention has made libya or the world safer?

Define expert opinion. Would the world be safer without the Libya intervention?

Would the world be safer with a Libya conflict the size of the Syrian one? Which has created 2 million Refugees. Destabilized the middle east, created fertile breeding grounds for terrorism worldwide?

The Libyan conflict turning into a full torn civil war would of destabilized Egypt, Algeria, and potentially Morocco. Would have created a massive refugee and humanitarian crisis that was imminently greater to Europe than the Syrian one. Libya is much closer to Europe then Syria. You can reach Italy, France and Spain by boat. They are very close by. Imagine millions of people trying to cross the Mediterranean during a 6 year civil war like the Syrian one and how that would of affected politics .

The Libya conflict as it was handled saw little bloodshed, and minimal refugees.

Let us not forget Kosovo and the Balkans. When Europe denied and Balked at the idea of Bill Clinton intervening to prevent the genocide of Muslims. Muslims were not "part of european culture" and did not deserve protection from genocide he was told by the leaders of England, France, and Spain.

So, it doesn't really matter if you intervene and something bad happens any time later you'll be called names.

If you don't intervene and something much worse happens you'll be called imperialist.

Well I know which war did not cause a massive 6 year civil war or refugee crisis.

If you ask me Obama and the west should of intervened in Syria and killed Bashar Al-Assad earlier.

He asked Congress to give him the power to do that and they did not. They have blood on their hands of every man, women, and child killed in this genocide of a immoral war against the poorest of the poor. And every leftist who avoids intervention due to "imperialism" has that same blood on your hands.

If we are to be the moral leaders of the world we can not stand by idly and allow women and children to be massacred by powerful fascist sycophants no matter where on earth it is.

And that's why europeans are a bunch of cucks and pussies. Because they are unwillign to ever intervene to save peoples lives due to fear of blowback. gently caress you. gently caress Al-Assad. gently caress Putin. And gently caress any leftist who enables his bullshit. To the ends of the god damned earth.

ISeeCuckedPeople posted:

I do challenge the points it's raised. I challenge the idea that Gaddafi was taken out because he didn't want to use dollars for his money. I challenge the idea that Gaddafi would not have massacred tens of thousands of his own citizens just as we have seen other rich arab nationalists do throughout the history of the Middle East. Just as we have seen in Syria.

The article comes off as a leftist defending Gaddafi. But Gaddafi is no leftist. He is equal to what Chavez and Maduro are in Venezuela. Corrupt Kings; who use the money made off oil to benefit their family and friends while killing anyone who opposes them. They're dictators, they don't give two fucks about the poor, or your class struggle. They just want power.

The left lets itself be lead by Putin and his power hungry Fascist comrades straight into the barrel of the gun with the pied-piper tale of " modern imperialism" and "Yankee Gringos de Mierda."

The saddest thing is that you let it work.

And don't worry mate. If Putin had you standing between him and a million dollars of power he'd kill you with his loving bare hands.

Amnesty International looked into the claims of massacres and so on in Libya during the uprising and found little evidence for them, certainly not enough to suggest Sirte was going to be a ghost town after it was retaken: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/amnesty-questions-claim-that-gaddafi-ordered-rape-as-weapon-of-war-2302037.html

I mean if it had become Gaddafi against a proper insurgency rather than an army then maybe it would have been very bloody like Syria but at the time when the claims were made they seem to be exaggerated in a way which encouraged intervention and I think it's okay to point that out and be a little skeptical about them.

Agreeing about him being a poo poo dictator and the nonsense about currency being a motive for anything.

Edit: Was it Sirte? Honestly can't remember.

If America and Europe are to be a shining city upon the hill, a bastion of multiculturalism and acceptance they must prevent death and genocide by insane dicators and hate world wide.

That means Libya, that Means Syria, that means Kosovo, that means Rwanda, that means Darfur. Europe and the United States bears the blood of these innocent on their hands as do their voters be the left or the right - and they will until the day they die. When you do die, you will be placed before God Almighty and judged for your action and inaction upon these events.

To be clear on what a loving stupid set of opinions "bombing libya was good" contains,

"According to journalist Barbara Slavin, reporting for Al Monitor on August 5, 2014, Tunisian President Moncef Marzouki stated that two million Libyans, or one third of the pre NATO intervention population of Libya, have taken refuge in Tunisia.[4]"
