Greg, as an interesting piece of trivia Obama likes to use the phrase “let me be clear about…”. And of course Nixon was famous for “Let me make this perfectly clear…”. So yes I’m willing to bet he has secret wars going on in Libya and elsewhere.

As a side note Caroline Glick had an interesting column on the situation in Syria. Her site is:

I agree with Milos – “Cindy” (McCain??) should go over with an Ak-47 and join the rebels.

Those who want to improve people’s souls should preach, not pass moral prohibitions (WAR on Drugs). Those who wish to liberate and democratize primative lands should go over and do so (WAR on Libya = “Kinetic Military Action”). Those who want to “help the poor” are free to do so (WAR on poverty). It is the collectivist compulsion of the whole country that is repulsive.

Will Obama pull a Nixon and run a secret war or secret missions in Libya? Of course, I’m referring to Nixons secret bombing campaigns in Cambodia and Laos. Am i way off base here?

So what will the Law of Unintended Consequences yield after going down this road?

Ah I remember the dark days of 2004 and 2005 when “Cindy”s and people like her were everywhere, assaulting reasonable, calm speech and discussion everywhere

This common equivocation of Globo-Cop with Patriotism by sillies like Cindy is obnoxious. I wish you would have deleted it and spared your readers another lesson in the deplorable state of political discourse.
I am happy there are a few citizens left with your courage and tenacity. Someone show Cindy the door, she was just leaving. Or should be…

It looks like Cindy may have some anger issues. I hope it’s not because of her having family members caught up in the vice-grip of US vs the world. Our President has made the worst mistake a sitting president could ever make. He told the recognized head of another country to step down and give his country to ?. The President of Libya told him, not only ‘No’, but ‘Hell NO’ President Obama now has to back up his threat. The CIA normally takes a troop with them (Black Ops) to do the dirty work. What do you bet there aren’t already ‘troops on the ground’ in Libya?

Is Cindy’s last name “McCain” by any chance? That would explain a lot!

By reaching a settlement with Ghadaffi in 2004 the US has forfeited any further claims in relation to the Lockerbie bombing for all eternity. Digging Lockerbie up now as a pretext for war is not only illegal, it’s also deeply immoral.

Still if Cindy is so itching for a fight how about we give her an AK47 with a ticket to Benghazi? Seeing how the war is going for them, the “rebels” are going to need all the help they could get.

Libyan forces will never defeat NATO Forces and can’t win the war against NATO forces so they should be withdraw their forces.

“Cindy” has a partially correct notion about Pan Am 103 – that is, if Libya was criminally liable for the attack in 1988, it would be a casus belli. But considering that the US has taken financial settlement, sent ambassadors, and allowed 22 years to intervene, it is absurd to bring it up NOW as a casus belli any more than the actions of the Bey of Tripoli in 1801 (which Jefferson and Congress responded to) would serve as a casus belli for 2011.

Even more absurd is to go to war to stop events that MIGHT happen in the future that were not happening such as Saddam Hussein’s mushroom clouds and Libya’s “genocide”. Heck, Paraguay MIGHT attack us in the year 2478 so that provides us an excuse to bomb it today!!

The American people are only about 50% in favor of this war which is amazing considering how they usually are 90% at the beginning of a war (only to recognize the idiocy later on) – so, in that sense, they are more non-interventionist than the media/punditry/politicians that are exercising their global “leadership” of the EMPIRE towards bankruptcy.

“Cindy” is pathetic, however, to equate WARMONGERING with PATRIOTISM.
