The U.S. spent hundreds of billions liberating Afghanistan only to have President Karzai call U.S. soldiers occupiers. It has spent tens of billions propping up Pakistan’s military only to have the Pakistanis conspire with the Taliban and al-Qaeda to kill U.S. soldiers.
Now the Libyan rebels who begged (and are still begging) for help in liberating their country have just rejected a U.S. request to extradite Megrahi – the Lockerbie bomber who killed hundreds of Americans and is reportedly really on his death bed this time.
WTF! The U.S. must have “sucker” emblazoned on the Stars and Stripes … in the native language of these impudent beggars.
Obama should tell them that if they don’t hand over Megrahi within 48 hours some of those smart NATO bombs now landing on Gaddafi’s forces will become very dumb indeed….
Don’t forget though that it was the UK that betrayed its “special relationship” with the U.S. by handing over Megrahi to Libya in exchange for oil in the first place.
