Why is Dictatorship necessary?
Apparently some regions have retained the civilized standards of frightened children running in fear of an ancient god who threatens and demands slaughter for every transgression. That would be ISIS, n'est pas?

If they keep this up ISIS will wear out their welcome with local populations. "Liberators" to oppressors.

Libya, today, suffers from a perverted defecation of hatred in the stool that is ISIS. Perhaps some will remember their history to better appreciate the opinions they read from various sources.
"In September 2004 the United States lifted economic sanctions leveled against the Gaddafi regime in response to its most egregious act of terror — the destruction of Pan 103 in December 1988. The Bush administration restored full diplomatic relations two years later. It is hard, looking at the bloodshed in Libya today, to reconcile the Bush administration’s rapprochement with Gaddafi with American values."

So, before embracing a certainty that ignores the reality of Libya's innocent victims; perhaps a better appreciation of previous failures will help balance the fanciful blame that ignores ISIS as the cancer that attacks the People of Libya.

Libya is a jihadist hellhole now. Thanks to work of Obama and Cameron, supporting their Bengazi "freedom fighters" without ever bothering to check who these guys are.
So, are Obama and Cameron still bragging about their Libya democracy bulding campaign? Strangely, our critical media seem to have completely forgotten recent history.

Hey don't leave Sarkozy out willi. Pour little guy is feeling most left out there. Especially as from a commercial point of view as he failed to peddle any obsolete Dassault jets on the back of the conflict.

Take the world map of the untapped oil provinces. Take the world map of the zone controlled by western-created ISIS. They superimpose each other. For the dummy: Step 1) create and grow a threat in the zone of interest Step 2) ask your "monster" to do horrible things such as using chemical weapon on people, killing minorities, hostage and behead (japanese) innocent guys. Step 3) the West intervene to save the free world from those horrible creatures Step 4) bah, let's take the oil and let's reconstruct.

Do we need to agree with such silly things in order to have a conversation with you?

I'd rather have ISIS in charge than Gaddafi. At least now it is clear who needs to be bombed and maybe that is everyone in the country. Democracy is coming for you, Burning Bush, whether you like it or not.
