Who exactly are the Libyan rebels? Do we have any clue who exactly we're trying to help here?
   
Or is it just that they are not Ghaddafi? I've found precious little on them. Are they even Libyans?

Any info is welcome. Thanks.

1. Don't ask me
   
I have no freakin' clue who they are.

52. Perhaps Osama bin Laden and his friends, but you are the first to ask.
   
Don't bring up details when we have an evil dictator to eradicate.

2. My guess is that they're just people who want democratic rights
   
just like the protesters in Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, Yemen etc etc.

8. We know what happened in neighboring countries like Tunisia and Egypt
   
and is happening in Bahrain and Yemen.

These people are tired of One Party States and want more freedom.

Just wait until they get the Hope & Change they want in the form of the Muslim Brotherhood or worse.

Freedom?  What does the virtuous muslim want with decadent western christian freedom?  The freedom they want is to impose archaic and evil laws and customs on each other.  They want the feedom to rape and oppress women.  They want the freedom to kill gays.  They want the freedom to attack Israel and anyone else who dares to not knuckle under the enlightenment. 

I might be wrong.  The sun may also rise from the western horizon into a green sky tomorrow.

Carter lost Iran to radicals and the world suffered under a reign of terror.
Obama lost the entire Arab world to radicals...who can tell how many will die as a result?

all the evil men in the world love weak presidents.

Hi5.

A modification to the great Reagan statement. "No country was ever lost to islamic dictatorships because the USA was too strong."

I'm sure we'll all find out when the throwbacks take over. :wink:
Sad, really sad.

Don't forget that our jug-eared Kenyan president doesn't necessarily see radical islamists as bad guys.

Yeah, that's the really sad part.
Almost like he's on "their" side. Oh wait,....... :-)

The left considers islamists just another comrade in arms seeking the overthrow the USA.
Just as they won`t admit that communism destroys almost all it touches they refuse to believe their heads will be sawn off quickly as any other.
