Couldn't care less. Deficate on them too for good measure. Have you seen what the locals do to the corpses of marines? Now thats barbaric. When you allow your children to pull them to pieces and batter them with sticks and stones all while chanting "Allah Akbhar".
When we're condemning a country for their actions to the point of war, we can't just turn around and start acting like them.
This. It would almost be like bombing a country because its regime was violently cracking down democratically-minded protesters, then turning round and doing the same thing to your own citizens...
...
OH WAIT :/
Can we get a raincheck on occupy protesters comparing themselves to the Libyan rebels, is there a lever that says 'pull in case of entitlement or persecution complex' that just causes people to think about what their actually saying, can we at least look into one?
differances
Motivation
-Libya-wanted democratic elections to occur
-Occupy-were pissed that people weren't voting the way that they want
Conditions
-Libya-a country ruled by a dictator who had no intention of stepping down, where any dissent is crushed mercilessly
-Occupy-The western world, where leaders change depending on the vote and any dissent is met with acclaim in roughly half the population depending on the slant of the dissent
The Violent crackdown (most notable incident)
-Occupy- the cop who maced a group of university protesters
-Libya- the murder of thousands of unarmed civilians with a massive toll on infrastructure
Achievements
-Libya- brought down the government
-occupy- mildly inconvenianced city workers and police, broke a few windows
