The uprisings in the Middle East and Africa appear to bode well for the rise of Democracy and the hope for greater peace in the region. Peaceful dissent is necessary to inform government of the dissatisfaction of the populace. That is the basis of a Democracy.
Libya, however is entrenched by the insane megalomaniac Qaddafi who has no qualms about committing genocide against his own people. Genocide can not be tolerated in any part of the world. The United States must take aggressive action to stop it by whatever means required. Obama cannot waffle on this issue. Congress needs to put pressure on the President to get this done.
