What is strange about this story is that nobody knows who the hell are these rebels and what they want to do once they are in power! Are they democrats? I don't really think so. My opinion is that they are a radical muslim group... so in terms of what would be better for the US, it would be better to let Kadafi stay in power, he's more or less friendly to the west, unlike for what it seens, the next group that is coming (the rebels)... Nobody knows what these rebels are, but I guess they are radical muslims... And will be much more hostile to the West than Kadafi is...

Y'know....I'd be willing to bet that Ike had similar thoughts in '59 and Kennedy even campaigned on stuff like this in '60. Ollie North and the Reagan administration went through these same type of maneuvers in the 80's. Clinton pulled similar shit in the 90's. Bush could have done the same thing in 2003 but opted for a somewhat more direct approach.

This kind of crap is nothing new and it never really works out well for any of the parties involved but that sure hasn't stopped anyone.
