Obama has himself in a very very bad spot...
If Kahdaffy goes...Libya is a failed state...because most of the "rebels" are Jihadi...which by the way is exactly why NATO and the US won't arm them with heavy weapons...and these "rebels" could never rule the tribes in the West of Libya who are loyal to Kahdaffy..."even if" they win....
If Kahdaffy stays Obama get his nose rubbed in it...just in time for the 2012 election...
This is what comes from interfering in the internal affairs of another state... When the Libyans want Kahdaffy gone...he will go...just like what happen in Egypt...people find a way to change leaders if they really want to... Yes there will always be malcontents...and "curve balls"...the world is full of them... But we shouldn't make major policy moves based on the opinions of guys called "Curveball..."
What if another nation said to Americans... Obama has to go...and we are going to bomb you until he's gone...? How would that work out...?
Obama has made Khadaffy into a hero for standing up to NATO bombing... And Obama has promised to arm the Western Libyan Jihadi...which he will not do...
Hillary and the Kitchen Cabinet...made a mess over the weekend.... that Obama has to clean up... Very likely this will become a humanitarian catastrophe before its over...and the US will be on the hook to "make it right"....ie more "nation building"...
