Why didn't America just do the thing that would have worked, though? America is either stupid or evil. Pick one.

Hey, America can do both don't underestimate us.

It was a war, trials and such are hard as gently caress to do when you fighting. I mean sometimes it works out but most the time it won't and you just have to accept that. You can also just wallow in your unrealistic fantasies tho, if you really want too.

Wait so it is a unrealistic fantasy that the US could have adopted a different strategy than it did? Moreover, even if you say that there could be other solution, there is the whole other issue of what happened in Libya when the dust settled. Libya has been crumbling for years and there doesn't seem to be a clear plan at this point to put it back together.

Yes there were to options, limited interference or staying out completely anything more involved is a fantasy.

As far as I know, intervention is still viewed rather positively in Libya. You could be talking about other countries I guess, but who cares what they think.

Well if you have any proof post it, instead of the always lame common sense argument.

I don't accept the default assumption of liberal warmongers that people love being bombed by foreign powers with disastrous results until it's proven otherwise. Call that "common sense" if you must.

Lol I didn't think you did.
