Remember Muammar Gaddafi? He was the 'evil' dictator who ruled Libya from 1969 to 2011. The USA, aided by NATO forces deposed and killed him in 2011. Our actions brought great peace and stability to that land. And if you believe that, I have a bridge in New York City that you may be interested in buying - cash and small bills please.
While looking for something else, I ran into this: Recollections of my life: Gaddafi, Sri Lanka Sunday Times, Apr 17, 2011
For 40 years, or was it longer, I can't remember, I did all I could to give people houses, hospitals, schools, and when they were hungry, I gave them food. I even made Benghazi into farmland from the desert.
I helped my brothers and sisters from Africa with money for the African Union; I did all I could to help people understand the concept of real democracy, where people's committees ran our country. But that was never enough, as some told me, even people who had 10-room homes, new suits and furniture, were never satisfied. As selfish as they were they wanted more, and they told Americans and other visitors they needed "democracy" and "freedom," never realizing it was a cut-throat system, where the biggest dog eats the rest.
But they were enchanted with those words, never realizing that in America, there was no free medicine, no free hospitals, no free housing, no free education and no free food, except when people had to beg or go to long lines to get soup.
No, no matter what I did, it was never enough for some, but for others, they knew I was the son of Gamal Abdel Nasser, the only true Arab and Muslim leader we've had since Salah'a'Deen, when he claimed the Suez Canal for his people, as I claimed Libya, for my people. It was his footsteps I tried to follow, to keep my people free from colonial domination -- from thieves who would steal from us...
Now, I am under attack by the biggest force in military history. My little African son, Obama, wants to kill me, to take away the freedom of our country, to take away our free housing, our free medicine, our free education, our free food, and replace it with American style thievery, called "capitalism."
Emphasis mine.
How is Benghazi now Mr. President? How happy are the Libyan people? Is this your great legacy Mr. President? Wasn't Hillary the Secretary of State when Benghazi blew up and Ambassador Stevens was murdered?
