Libya is turning into a crazy situation for all parties involved. Republicans and democrats are both up in arms and are taking typical partisan sides. One thing is clear is that we are setting a dangerous precedent with the handling of this situation. Why does the US have the right to intervene in certain governments suppression of protests and not others? I do not like Gadhafis regime over the people of Libya but I do not think that the US should be taking sides in these matters. This posses no threat to our safety as a nation.
The people in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia have had protests only to be broken up by police with guns. Should we also go into these nations and protect these protesters from aggression by the government?
