Not that difficult.
– Ghaddafi is terrorizing his own people, no doubt. Libya without him would be similar to Tunisia. But given the fact that his rule is pretty much secular, it still could be even worse.
– Pretty much all West wants Lybian gas, no doubt, as well. But it’s not so crucial because their stocks are limited, that is why it took so long
– Libyan rebels surely want to have the money from the gas contracts flowing elsewehre than just in Ghaddafi’s pocket. Whether they would be willing to really make things moving or just fill theior own pockets, remains open
Now, if rebels should prevail in the end, given the fact that it required western military intervention to achieve that, they would be pretty much in the vassal position towards the west. These airstrikes are not cheap and somone will have to pay the bill one day.

I’m not speaking virtually, I happened to be to be in Sarajevo during crisis 20 years ago. There were sick people shelling the city, there were another sick people defending it and lastly third party (so called UN) came with their own interest. Now I hear, people is starving while somebody somewhere “fat”, became “fatter”. They had free education, health, freedom…now they are talked that they lived under terror of Tito’s regime ?!? and they are free at last.
One has to have Michael Moore’s consciousness to see things around us.
