Why Libya? II

The Libya mystery continues, now John McCain is urging support for the rebels. Why? In my first blog on Libya I postulated that it was Obama's war and now McCain is getting into it??? It does not make any sense for him to jump in.

We do not know who the rebels are.

We do not know who their leader is. Further, McCain's statement that they are not al-quida is not convincing. How could he know that when he has been there only a few days?

What is accomplished by removing Qaddafi? Will the next strongman be better? How much money will we spend to aid in his removal? Will we get a better deal on oil? If not, why not?

We got no better deal on oil when we saved Kuait. No better deal on oil when we supplied freedom to Iraq. We are paying in money, goods, armaments and blood. Why do we not get a better deal?
Where is the exit strategy for ceasing to help the rebels in Libya? Our drones are being sent to Libya, are merely arming al-quida to have better weapons to use against us? I want to know these things and the media seems only interested in sending people to review the fighting, even if a few of them get killed. I need a full report on why we are there. It is Obama's job to tell us this.
