War in Lybia Escalates Above and Beyond: More rationalization By USA

THE DOCTOR IS IN _______________

LAS VEGAS- Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

It is now 03/26/2011 and the United States is still taking the lead in attacks on Libya even after president Obama said he was going to stand down. So much for his word. In addition, it is reported that the U.S. and the so-called coalition is planning to funnel arms to the Libyan rebels.

First, the reasoning for the Libyan attack was to only enforce a no-fly zone. That was ridiculous because Libya only has a very small amount of planes in their military asset inventory. It took almost nothing to have warplanes from a number of nations wipe out Libya's air force in a matter of hours. It was like using snow plow to kill a bug. Now the escalation is to arm the rebels and send in military personnel to train the rebels on how to use the weapons. Can you see how a government(s) can rationalize their views on what they want to accomplish?

Remember we, the United States supported Gadhafi for decades just like we did with Saddam in Iraq. We even supplied Saddam with weapons to use against his people but when the relationship sours the U.S. finds a way to rationalize regime change and then destroy the offending country by mass bombings and missle attacks . You can bet the United States is still playing a very active role in this war on Libya even though the the administration says it is stepping aside.

Tens of millions of dollars are being poured in this fiasco with Obama using the excuse that we are protecting the Libyan people. If that were the case why isn't Obama and his cohorts bombing and using military force against Syria? The government of Syria is presently slaughtering more people there on an every day basis that Gadahfi has done to date. Will Obama use military against the other Arab countries in the region that are now killing their people in the streets?

My view of this inappropriate, unwarranted war in Libya is: [ politics, oil, and to keep the American peoples mind off of all of the domestic problems ] that Obama and the administration fail to address. War is always a good excuse to divert one's attention from other matters. President George Bush did it and now Obama is playing the same ol' song. Anyone for a one term president? - And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.
