We as Americans need to turn away from focusing on events like this and instead put all this anger and fake surprise into getting our troops and America out of these wars. We desperately need to let our leaders know that we want them to help US in USA first. Worrying about the “legalnicity” of the foreign policies we have been following doesn’t address the issues in the US. Why do we focus on anything except the problems in the USA? Legal redress for our action oustside the USA first? Uh-Uh, no way. What about the corporate terrorists inside the USA – the people and institutions that created the recession/depression who have been bailed out and then rewarded themselves with giant bonuses (bone us’s?, bone the US?) It’s time we demand that someone pull the plug on these wars and throw all those resources into helping the plight of the US economy instead!
Well said, Ted. I was disturbed by the reaction of Americans to Qaddafi’s murder. And of course by Hillary’s laugh (on I think CBS) about it. Tell that to a typical Democrat, and they’ll say — “What? You support Qaddafi? He violated human rights.” Yet, when NATO violates human rights, it is no big deal, apparently
