You don't even have the integrity to acknowledge the differences between this and Iraq. When GHWB declared an open-ended no fly zone over Iraqi kurdistan (which ended up lasting over a decade) he did it to protect civilians. It was the right thing to do because he prevented a massacre. Obama clearly didn't want to get the US involved in another conflict, and still doesn't, but he was left no choice when it was either that or a slaughter in Benghazi. There are good political reasons why the US shouldn't be leading this. I'm glad it's not our war alone, like Iraq was. I hope we don't get further involved, although I doubt that is really possible. I expect there will be special forces on the ground before long help the rebels win tis thing.
