Not sure what do you mean by Nonsense, are you saying current state of Iraq and Libya is ok. This is what Australian Traveller Govt site says about Egypt Kidnapping is a risk for travellers in Egypt. Violent crime can happen. Take extra care if you're a women and alone. Terrorists have attacked places popular with tourists in recent years. https://www.smartraveller.gov.au/destinations/africa/egypt https://www.smartraveller.gov.au/destinations/africa/egypt

  So I was saying that the US is responsible for their destruction, and you thought that I think it is ok?

    Gaddafi was not a friend of the US, Saddam was but then he changed. Why do you think US wont do anything? and you conveniently ignored my point about Egypt

  You implied that the west keeping the devil dictator is better than having a revolution and for people to chose their own destiny. Even if it looks like a warzone now, assuming those people are left alone to decide their future, they will go back to peace and prosperity instead of having someone millions miles away decide what they eat, think and see.

    > Even if it looks like a warzone now So you are just going to ignore the hundreds of thousands of people getting killed in the warzone? Is that the price for freedom and peace?

      Yes it is. Do you think democracy and freedom comes out of nothing? Check the french revolution, history of the UK and other democracies. There is always blood before things go back to be better.

        So if you were in living in a warzone, would you be ok for you and your family to be killed as a price for freedom. I dont think so, its easy to say that when your life is not on the line.
