Oil, baby. Oil. Not ours. Theirs…
“This chart shows every energy and oil installation in Libya, offshore and on. Every one of them is a European-owned entity. This is no more a humanitarian mission than a mission to save the animals and the pets of Libya. This is about European energy, pure and simple.” – Rush Limbaugh, Facebook

Notice how much of the map is covered by orange (Russian company). Yet, I don’t see Russia on the list of countries helping to overthrow Qaddafi.
Could it be that they understand something that we don’t? (Or, that we DO, but are going forward anyway??) Could it be that the Russians are standing firm against Islamist expansionism (led by the Muslim Brotherhood), while the US is playing along with our European allies in the appeasement game? Hmmmmmmmmm.
Russia found out what happens when you let Muslims get a toe-hold in government: the Chechen uprising.
Sadly, we are learning that same lesson … at the White House level.
