I actually agree more with Juan Cole. Do you honestly believe, with all the Egypt's military has been through, they were going to effectively evacuate half of Libya? Do you think they really want all those refugees?

You intervene when your intervention has a chance of success, not to be consistent.

We only intervene if we have other interests or stand to gain something. We use these positive reasons for intervening in something as a reasonable screen, but ultimately, we just do what the fuck we want and don't care about shit.

ie: Burma, Ivory Coast, Bahrain, Yemen, Sudan... >> ^JAPR:
