$1:

in Libya, a country beset by a civil war and mounting Islamic terrorism.

Or, as some of like to call it. Another Obama administration foreign policy success story.

Although, I do wonder if the coalition is going to welcome us with open arms given our little temper tantrum a few countries over.

[Canadian_Mind]

I'm not sure if I feel this is a good idea or not. On one hand, this is one of the countries we decided to fuck with and cause this situation in the first place. On the other hand, I'm concerned this is going to set a precedent where we are chasing ISIS all over the world.

That said, perhaps we should be willing to counter ISIS wherever they appear, as without the original interventions they probably would have never formed in the first place.

I think this is going to become quite comical if the Liberals end up getting us involved in more conflicts than the Conservatives did. Would certainly cement the notion that peacekeeping isn't what the world needs right now.

Funny. I thought the Liberals were pussies, which is why they were ending the bombing in Syria. You'd think the right would be cheering this move, which could only be bettered by sending ground troops to Syria. Now that would really prove we're not pussies.

Back to Libya.

Like we haven't made a complete and total mess of the country already, we have to go back for more.

Just how stupid can this new government get ?

[andyt]

So intervene in Syria, but stay out of Lybia?

[Guy_Fawkes]

Too many unanswered questions for me to give any fucks.

[BartSimpson]

Stay the hell out of Libya. There's no reason why you folks should clean up Obama's mess.

I could care less if Canada took part in one of these overseas schmozzes ever again. I don't need to see any of our guys getting killed in places where their sacrifice makes absolutely zero difference, and I certainly don't want them killed because of some half-assed policy some politicians strung together at some NATO or G8 wine-and-cheeser.
