Because the rest of the world could not contain the threat from Khadafi to his people without the US bases in Europe???

Precisely.
Europe was incapable of dealing with the Balkans. A mess in their own back yard. No... they had to protest to get us into that one. So yes, you are correct. The remainder of the world can't get it done without us.

FARRAKHAN: "I warn my brother do you let these wicked demons move you in a direction that will absolutely ruin your future with your people in Africa and throughout the world...Why don't you organize a group of respected Americans and ask for a meeting with Qaddafi, you can't order him to step down and get out, who the hell do you think you are?

Yes... for that flick it does... I've watched it many times and the last minutes of the then joint chiefs is incredibly funny, as is Dr. Strangelove's battle with himself, and his final line was off the charts hilarious... Mein Fuehrer... I can walk. Now, for my usage it refers to the "humanitarian bombs" were are delivering to Libya. You see, I'm not constrained by old usages.
Dr. Strangelove's battle with himself is similar to the Libs and their new found love of the bomb, and war.

if you're going to try and be clever and insult your President, you could at least try to get it right.
it's 'that one'.
You have yet to prove that liberals like nuclear warfare or nuclear weapons. And now add to that list war.
lol... I've explained my usage, you prefer to ignore. That's ok. perhaps using a larger font will help. Does this help with comprehension, and do i need to repost my clarifications of "libs learning to love the bomb" again? please advise.

LOL... their bombing was an act of war... you do not need a slip of paper to make it so. Their strike was pre-emptive. America is in War No. 3.
And will you admit to the class that casus belli is the justification for war; the selling of it to the public to gain support.
Don't argue with him, the man makes a mockery of politics and debate. He lives in his own world right now, he's so confident and sure of himself he won't listen to anyone.
You're awfully quiet about casus belli.Conservatives really are slow, huh?
The bombing was an ACT OF WAR. We were not in a STATE OF WAR with Japan when they bombed us. Instead of spewing your asinine and inane comments, why don't you actually think of what the difference is between the two?
Here, I'll dumb it down even more for you. Were we at war with Iran during the Iran-Iraq War? No. Yet, we destroyed oil platforms, gunboats and speedboats. They planted mines throughout the Persian Gulf and damaged one of our frigates. Yet we were not in a STATE OF WAR.
We could not say we didn't have a part in it. If you aid and abet a dictator in genocide, do you not bear some responsibility?
That's quite a serious charge. Exactly how did the United States 'aid and abet' Saddam Hussein in genocide?
We don't know if the corrupt government we helped set up there can even stand on its own after our occupation forces are withdrawn that are propping it up, much less what kind of government will be in place after their civil war. I think the ones that didn't think this through were the ones that planned the invasion of a country that was of no threat to us.
It's clear you're now meandering off in another direction entirely. You alleged that an apology was sought by the Iraqi people and now you can't support that claim.
Are you now withdrawing it?
When the Japanese attacked us, were we in a state of war with them? Absolutely not.The Japanese committed an act of war. What on earth are you talking about??
Wow... It's awesome reading comments that are completely ignorant of relevance. Go learn the difference between an act of war and a state of war and how they each apply to international conventions (ie - THE LAWS OF WAR).And I can assure you that if another country were to start shooting our planes out of the air in any nation on earth, well, that'd be an act of war as well.

This is Rummy selling him the WMD to do it.
What in God's name are you talking about?
It was a people's revolution, everyone was involved.
What the hell is wrong with you?

The Libyan War of 2011
March 19, 2011 | 2333 GMT
Red Alert: The Libya Situation and How Wars Begin
By George Friedman
The Libyan war has now begun. It pits a coalition of European powers plus the United States, a handful of Arab states and rebels in Libya against the Libyan government. The long-term goal, unspoken but well understood, is regime change — displacing the government of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi and replacing it with a new regime built around the rebels.

That's two people shaking hands!!! How is that aiding and abetting genocide?
Do Leftists seriously believe that when world leaders greet each other they share each other's philosophies?
I suppose you felt Richard Nixon was a Communist and Maoist because he was similarly greeted on his visit to China. And you'll never believe who FD Roosevelt was pictured beside in Yalta!
You guys can be comical!
Err, no. By your lofty logic, when Pearl Harbor was bombed, America was at war with Japan. We weren't at war with Japan on December 7, 1941. We were at war with Japan on December 8, 1941.
Learn what the terms state of war means in context of numerous international conventions. Aggression is not always war. It is casus belli for war.
Were we at war with Iran during the Iran-Iraq War?
I'ma just gonna say one thing here.
This is a brick wall but here goes anyway.
Tomahawk missiles and air strikes < Full fledged invasion and regime change. 5000 American deaths. 32 500 American wounded.
Just saying.
The Left has really moderated their quagmire predictions.
Prior to the invasion of Iraq they were predicting 250,000 American deaths.
