Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Re: Gaddafi Where have al theBillions Gone?

i believe jaye has it right, and the other issues are distractions, in
fact, virtually lies.
there is an oppressive state, the people are being treated as sheep, the
ruler enriches himself. he slaughters his sheep to keep in power. it
couldn't be uglier.
but it is; he is practically insane, and cloaks his exploitation in
baloney. al qaeda and drugs! how can you listen to this maniac?
and we are supposed to listen to what he says?
it is simple enough: either we support the people of the nation who are
in revolt, or we dupe ourselves and support a tyrant
