That's the problem with Band-Aid foreign policy. Reagan blew up one of his kids, but failed to pull the trigger on Daffy, (probably to keep oil prices stable).

Look how that worked out...

If I were a pilot ordered to bomb my fellow citizens I would not defect because as soon as you defect you not only lose your wings you end up unemployed.
If the economy was better then yes I'd defect but in this job market y'all better stay off the streets

Guided munitions are great and all but I don't think they were good enough in 1986 to selectively kill only certain members of a family running from the same house.

Fuck 'em.

You've got to remember that frequently those "spontaneous shows of support" are government organized, in places like Libya.

I know, this is why I'm conflicted.

I need to know which of the protesters was shouting "Death To America" before they decided to shout "Death To Kadafi", before I can decide which ones to feel sorry for.

If what I've been told is anything to go by, feel sorry for most of the ones who don't work in the government. Government workers are frequently handed signs and then trucked out, to show "spontaneous support for the government."
