    You people are not too blind as to not agree that if Libya is to be invaded then Saudi Arabia and Yemen should be too? But of course they will not, because Saudi Arabia and Yemen are America's puppet nations. So as long as they don't cross their boundary's than can get off just fine with killing unarmed protesters comparatively to Libya killing armed protesters.

    It's geopolitics. Makes sense to me.

    So your arguement against interviening in Libya is that we're not attacking Saudi Arabia and Yemen? According to your arguement we should assault them too. Of course if we did you'd flip out.

    And incase you haven't noticed, Yemen is a hotbed for anti-American Terrorism and Obama bowed to the King of Saudi Arabia. I don't think they're American Puppets.

    Great News. The former minister of justice held hostage by the Rebels was just set free by Gaddafi's special forces.

    No I am merely pointing out the fact that you barley hear anything about these nations killing their civilians, showing America's hypocrisy, if this was really about Humanitarianism they would be invading these two nations also.

    One nation at a time. Besides, America isn't a big contender in Libya, so I don't know what your ranting about America for. Go insult the French, they're blowing the hell out of the country.

    The diffrience is that Libya is in civil war and we can only deal with one nation at a time.

    America or any NATO nation will never invade Yemen or Saudi Arabia. America put the Saudi monarchy in power for fucks sakes.

    Again, the UN has no right to be part of any civil war.

    And before anyone gives me that crap about genocide, take into account the anti-Gaddafi forces killing African immigrants.

    British Imperialism and American Imperialism are one in the same.

    Immigrants or Mercenaries?

    Certainly there are some rebel groups more extreme than others, but that's the beauty of democracy. The extreams don't win the elections, the middle ground does as it best suits the nation's intrests. Only in times of crisis does an extremist take over.

    However, this cannot be said for Dictatorship or Monarchy where apsolute power is inherited.

    America sets up Puppet Governments while Brittian sets up colonies. Take Cuba for example. The British would have annexed it but America set up a semi-puppet there. Although this went back and forth and now Cuba is isolated from America.

    And that is from Al Jazzeera, an Anti-Gaddafi media outlet from the beginning.

    I cannot defend the actions of individuals. However, that is what this is. Individual action. It is almost like saying the KKK means all white americans are racists, or if you know about the resedential school program in Canada, all Canadians want to rape First Nations children.

    However, as with all of these issues, including the one you brough up, it should be talked about more so and the Government in Bengazi should adress this. Though, it may not be on the tops on anyone's minds. (also, I do know this is credable because the source is a credable news agency, not the guy talking in the video. next time, give me the Al-Jazera link or CNN or other credable news agencies. Russia today is a good alternative, but it is usually crap as it is clearly Anti-American.)
