Remember when Libya’s rebel forces sodomized Colonel Qadhafi and then paraded his beaten and bloodied body through the streets of Sirte en route to his public execution? That would have been an excellent time for America to reassess its strategic alliance with the so-called liberators of Libya.
For seven months, remember, a U.S.-led bombing campaign had been smashing Qadhafi’s forces. And with America’s indiscriminate bombardment from above, the Islamists on the ground were able to round up Qadhafi loyalists, including many civilians, and conduct mass beatings and killings.
