A Few Quick Libyan Updates

Posted on February 21, 2011 by Lawrence Person

Before I hit the hay:

  • Some of Moammar Gadhafi’s own diplomats are disowning him.
  • Two Libyan pilots have evidently defected to Malta rather than attack civilians.
  • Gadhafi himself says he hasn’t fled the country.
  • You know who Gadhafi says is behind the protests, don’t you? That’s right: the Jews. Man those guys get around. With all this protest-leading, when do the Elders of Zion have time to sleep?
  • Pretty much everyone in America (with the possible exception of the Obama State Department) supports toppling Gadhafi. Unfortunately, so do the Islamists.
  • Including the spiritual leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, Yusuf al-Qaradawi.
  • Ace of Spades asks: should we intervene militarily?
