No one is confused by your obvious obfuscation. It was the vote to authorize President Bush to use military force in Iraq.
Only Barry, his followers, and Democrats could somehow stretch authorization for the use of military force in IRAQ into approval for Barry to pimp out our military to Al Qaeda, help them kill the leader of a sovereign nation who was helping the Coalition fight terrorists in northern Africa, take his country for their own, and as authorization to commit what the UN considers an International War crime - invading a sovereign nation (Syria) without the specific request or consent of either the leader of that nation or government.
I wonder if Obama's Agency Directors referenced the authorization to use the military in Iraq on their criminal FISA warrants, too...
Everyone says the Libya intervention was a failure. They’re wrong.
Critics erroneously compare Libya today to any number of false ideals, but this is not the correct way to evaluate the success or failure of the intervention. To do that, we should compare Libya today to what Libya would have looked like
if we hadn’t intervened. By that standard, the Libya intervention was successful: The country is better off today than it would have been had the international community allowed dictator Muammar Qaddafi to continue his rampage across the country.
Critics further assert that the intervention caused, created, or somehow led to civil war. In fact, the civil war had already started before the intervention began. As for today’s chaos, violence, and general instability, these are more plausibly tied not to the original intervention but to the international community’s failures
after intervention.
The very fact that the Libya intervention and its legacy have been either distorted or misunderstood is itself evidence of a warped foreign policy discourse in the U.S., where anything short of success—in this case, Libya quickly becoming a stable, relatively democratic country—is viewed as a failure.
NATO INTERVENED TO PROTECT CIVILIANS, NOT TO SET UP A DEMOCRACY
