Libyan rebel commander admits his fighters have al-Qaeda links

[JBeukema]

In an interview with the Italian newspaper Il Sole 24 Ore, Mr al-Hasidi admitted that he had recruited "around 25" men from the Derna area in eastern Libya to fight against coalition troops in Iraq. Some of them, he said, are "today are on the front lines in Adjabiya".

Mr al-Hasidi insisted his fighters "are patriots and good Muslims, not terrorists," but added that the "members of al-Qaeda are also good Muslims and are fighting against the invader".

No way this can backfire, right?

Yep. Doesn't surprise me in the least. Just the most recent proof of something I've been saying for many years.....

"THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA DOES NOT HAVE ANY TRUE ALLIES OR FRIENDS OUTSIDE OF OUR OWN BORDERS."

Blow Back...It's coming. You just can't bomb & kill and think there wont be a price to pay at some point. We will pay. It's inevitable. Aggressive Foreign Interventionism is a Lose/Lose proposition for this Nation.

Not even those whose asses we HAVE kicked. Definitely not those whose asses we've bailed out in the past.

True. However, the alternative is not something that your beloved Doctor Paul is willing to implement.... TRUE ISOLATIONISM and NATIONALISM.

Thats why intervention in these ass-backwards countries is absurd. There are no freedom fightrers nor is it a fight for democracy. In these coountries its always about replacing and evil bad guy for another evil bad guy. Fcukk them all........best let them kill each other off.........

If Isolationism & Nationalism means ending these Foreign Interventions and caring about Americans again,than i say lets go for it. Personally,i've always said the terms 'Isolationism' & 'Protectionism' are incredibly over-used and convenient labels. This country needs more Isolationism. I'm completely sick of the Globalists/Internationalists. And I think most Americans agree with me. It's time for a dramatic change in our Foreign Policy.

It has to be 'our bad guy', now Obama wants it to be 'their bad guy', are we meant to be surprised if a decade later the President wants it to be 'our bad guy' again? People seem to forget Saddam Hussein, the Shah, and Pinochet were all US and western supported bad guys.

 

[Mad Scientist]

Impeach Obama.

 

[LibocalypseNow]

It really is amazing that so many Americans really do believe they can go around the World Bombing & Killing yet don't have to pay a price for that. 911? There will be many more 911's if this ridiculous Foreign Policy continues. Blow Back...It is coming. Don't kid yourself.

No,Free Trade is fine. Just as long as American Citizens see some benefits. Surely we can enjoy Free Trade and good relations with the World without bombing & killing or screwing Americans? I think this is not only possible but it's also the right way to go. There is nothing preventing us from having good relations with the entire World. If we just let go of this stupid Foreign Policy,it can happen. Time for big changes.

Nope. Not until we have a system in place that protects AMERICAN BUSINESS from cheap foreign goods and forces companies that want to do business here to have their headquarters, labor, and manufacturing here.

I'm not sure what part of.... WE HAVE NO FRIENDS OUTSIDE OUR BORDERS you are missing.

lol! Yea our Foreign Policy really is pretty messed up. Aggresive Foreign Interventionism is just wrong. Now we just need to convince the Socialists/Progressives & Neocons that it's so wrong. Thanks for your wise assessment.

I WILL make one slight revision to this.... "Aggressive Foreign Interventionism that is not in direct response to an attack on the United States is just wrong."

So far as I'm concerned, the moment that someone from a foreign nation makes an attack (of any type) on the United States, any/all forms of Aggressive, Violent response are completely and totally legitimate.

When you prop up repressive regimes to support your interests, you eventually pay a price
