Fun thing is, Qaddafi was taken down mostly by Euro countries. US didn't care at first and stepped in relatively late in the game.

- barry-cotter 9y agoIt was mostly European countries that wanted to do it. That doesn't mean they did it. Just googling "Libya no fly zone" looking at the headlines and dates will tell that story. It had to be a NATO operation so it needed active US support and it couldn't have gotten UN Security Council Resolution in support without the US.
- Tyrek 9y agoSure, but that doesn't change the messaging - nukes are good for defending national sovereignty.
