Good deeds? Some political insiders are saying that we're getting into Libya to contest Chinese influence on the oil interests in the area. It's for energy and money again. Otherwise why aren't we in Syria? The Syrians are being trampled by the dictator, and in many ways that country is more ready for Western-style democracy than Libya is. Very few political acts are for moral good. Most are eyeing a payoff somewhere.

By the way, are we supposed to be talking about stuff like this? I thought the policy was no politics on Equipped.
