Originally posted by generalissimoHuh? I opposed intervention in Libya from the start and hardly consider the current rabble in some sort of charge as "cuddly democracy advocates and guardians of freedom". I have no idea how you came up with that.
In no way was I implying that the Gadhafi regime was preferable to the current state of affairs, my point was merely that there is a possibility that the rebels will not turn out to be the cuddly democracy advocates and guardians of freedom No1 and rwingett think they are.
The cold-blooded extra-judicial killing of Gadhafi is, in my opinion, lamenta ...[text shortened]... and a poor reflection of the new government's stance on proper procedures and the rule of law.
But I certainly oppose any thought of Western invasion to impose a government we think is proper for the Libyans.
