re: #55 Lidane

There are two BIG problems, though —

1. We’re already in the middle of two wars. Getting involved in a third — and make no mistake, attacking Libya would quickly escalate into a war — is a bad idea.

2. We can’t intervene, because that would just fuel Gadafi’s contention that these protests and uprisings are fueled by outsiders. The Libyan people have to fight this battle themselves.

Thus, the problem that arises when we look at history and say, “Never again!” is that it usually just ends up meaning we’re never going to bother to get involved again.
