W.Post: Kill More Libyans
The Washington Post has an editorial today fretting that the Obama administration has not killed enough Libyans. The Post warns that U.S. killing of more Libyans is the best way to assure a bright future for Libya. OK, that’s not verbatim – but this is: “The dangers of the military stalemate for the United States increase with each day it lasts. The greater the disorder in Libya, the greater the chance that extremist forces, including al-Qaeda, will push aside the pro-Western figures who now lead the opposition.”
Thus, the U.S. needs to kill more Libyan troops to assure the triumph of moderates in Libya.
For the Post, the bottom line is: “The longer the fighting continues, the more harm will come to civilians.”
So the best way to protect civilians is to blow hell out of the country in the next few hours.
This is the same editorial page that continues insisting that George W. Bush did not deceive Americans regarding the Iraq war.

RE: "The Washington Post has an editorial today fretting that the Obama administration has not killed enough Libyans." – James Bovard
MY SNARK: The Weymouths have turned the Washington Post into yet another necon rag; much like what Marty Peretz did to the New Republic several decades ago.
Fred Hiatt has become the Post's equivalent of Marty "Macho Man" Peretz and suffers from the delusion that he is the Grand Poobah of "Freedonia"!

The 'Washington Postal' certainly does luvva luvva LUVVA that war crap. Of course and it just may be that, the 'Washington Postal' doesn't have any of their precious little ones on the line. It's really easy to send those "sons and daughters" off to fight and die when it's someone else's sons and daughters.
Say and thinking about the 'Washington Postal', how's old Admiral Tommy 'mongering' Ricks doing these fine days? Can we all say, 'counter-pseudo-intelligent'?

Once again, it simply rips the mind apart to think that people still actually pay for the "pleasure" of being force fed verbal diarrhea from a discredited partisan rag like the WaPo. Even more nauseating is the idea that the Weymouths, Hiatts, et al. get paid to spew out this sewage.

True. I also remember the Sunday edition's coupons knocking an average of at least $40.00 a month off of our household grocery bill and the unread newsprint making great padding for my cat's litter box.

Ed Shultz…Juan Cole…Rachel Maddow….Obama ass kissers….formerly Kerry ass kissers.. and before that Clinton ass kissers.
Gimme a break. These people are progressive in the same way colo-rectal cancer is progressive. And don't call them "sellouts". They never had anything to sell, except maybe Cole, who became totally pussified when Hymie kept him out of Yale and now likes to see himself on TV with the rest of the morons.
The "progressives" who perform under the big tent exist solely to legitimize the right wing and provide a foil and sparring partner for the "debate" that goes on between the two, as if it were to be taken seriously. All these effers are on the same side–

There you have it in writting.., this has been the Neo – Cons, Bush, Cheney, Rove, Paul Wolfowitz agendas from the year 2000.., use as much force as you can, kill as many as you can. This is Neo Fascism in writting.

Juan Cole has contributed other articles to AntiWar in the past that revealed that he is in fact an imperialist. His comments about the poor majority in Latin America have been racist.

I disagree with your point that the W. Post is partisan. Your precious Dems are the current warmongers. They increased troops in Afghanistan and refused to shut down Gitmo. Sounds a lot like the Neo Con Republicans to me. DO YOU GET IT YET? There is not a dimes worth of difference between the 2. RON PAUL is the only viable and electable alternative. Dems are overwhelmed with their Socialists who support war and Republicans are overwhelmed with Neo-Cons war hawks who bow to social programs. DO YOU GET IT YET? NATIONAL SOCIALISM is both parties agenda.

The native population of libya is primarily arab or a mixture of arab berber ethnicities, with a small minority of berber speaking tribal groups and small black African groups like tuareg and tebu tribes can be found in southern libya, which are nomadic. Thanks a lot.
