President Clinton recognizes Libyan Rebel “Government”

Posted on July 15, 2011 by Fred Stiening

So it’s official now.

Let the looting of the Libyan treasury begin in earnest.   That’ll keep Greece afloat for at least a few months.

    Was it intentional to refer to her as President?

    The sometimes reliable Israeli news site Debka.com has this take on what is happening in Libya:

      You noticed 😉

      I think that article is very accurate. How much of a role Russia is going to play is yet to be seen. Turkey has a lot at stake and wants a seat at the table. Italy did break off it’s support for NATO, the French aircraft carrier is about ready for the scrap heap, it’s summer now and the desert is hot… The English government is in turmoil, the US Congress doesn’t support this, and the world is two weeks away from economic collapse.

      Now comes the bad part. If you attack an enemy unprovoked and you prove that you didn’t have the ability to beat him up and knock him out, prepare to get your ass whooped. Don’t start a fight you can’t afford to lose.

    Yeah, I liked the “President” reference …I think it’s pretty clear that Obama is a Domestic President only. Mrs Clinton wears the big boy pants for Foreign Affairs. 🙂
