patra_is_here Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 Well, since almost everyone on this website is an expert in foreign policy and military strategy, I suspect we'll have a real great debate on our hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes or no? No debate. It is a simple question.I never asked for members to voice their opinions. A simple Yes or No will suffice.

Fanta Posted October 10, 2012 Report Share Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) To those members who say no, why do you say the embassy still would not have been attacked? Honestly, it's a bit of a moot point because even if Ghaddafi was still in power, it's very likely the attack would have been carried out - reason I say this is because it was around September 11th, which would lead me to believe that it would have happened regardless. If it was around say, June or something, then my answer might be different. Edited October 10, 2012 by Fanta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it was around say, June or something, then my answer might be different. Justin, I feel that I have to refute your above reply to keep with the objective of this post as strictly Yes or NO. Very simply, Ghaddafi detested the Muslim Brotherhood, Taliban and El Quaeda almost as much as Western European and American citizens that had their heads screwed on straight who read and understood world history who raised alarm at "THE ARAB SPRING" and the Muslim Brotherhood being the main motivating force behind it. Ghaddafi's government freely traded radical/terroist intelligence with western intelligence agancies. Altho he was a despot and did a lot of despicable things, he knew that he had to keep the radicals in Libya suppressed because if they took over Libya, or got in a place of power, his goose was cooked. If Ghaddafi had not been deposed and killed, he would have kept the radicals suppressed if not killed and the Libya American Consulate 9/11/12 debacle would not have happened. During the Arab Spring Debacle you and others preached the praises of the Muslim Brotherhood and their supposedly or should I say "propogandist" quest for democracy in the Mid East here on SQC. Well, you now see the results of the radical Muslim Brotherhood/El Quaeda and their splinter groups supposed quest for democracy everywhere in the Mid-East. Justin, I consider you a friend but enough is ENOUGH!!!! Bill strictly asked for a Yes or No. So Keep it at that before you dig the hole deeper that you dug during the Arab Spring and it's consequental results. For What It's Worth.

Obama didn't step aside and allow a revolution... he took sides and aided radical Muslim insurgents in overthrowing their government.

Threedoor Posted October 12, 2012 Report Share Posted October 12, 2012 WAR it's strange how quickly they are forgotten , by those that didn't fight in them . Truth there, I joined the Navy at the start of the first gulf war and got out a month after the 9/11 attacks. When a country aids another countries revolution it should not expect gratitude from the victors. Look what happened in France after they helped us in the American Revolution. Us not paying back our war debt was one of the economic pressures that brought down the French Royal family. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
