ALL of the countries we attacked were better off BEFORE we did so. Iraq had the highest standard of living of any Arab state. Libya had free housing, college, and healthcare. That's better than we've got. Gaddafi was working on a water pipeline to make the country food self-sufficient. MILLIONS of people have died, or been forced into exile as refugees, which has cost our allies in Europe billion$ to deal with, while thousands more have lost their lives in transit. Anyone who says our intentions were good should remember what the road to hell is paved with. We've indebted our children, and their children for over $3 TRILLION to pay for this slaughter, and only made our country LESS safe in the process while causing vast suffering abroad. What goes around WILL come around. Only a fool asks why Muslims hate us. Our actions are why they hate us.
