State Department Admits Libya has Become a Terrorist Safe Haven

I wonder whose fault that was. Must be the guy who kept boasting how he had beaten Al Qaeda and saved Detroit.

The State Department’s latest report on global terrorism, released Wednesday, lists Libya as a terrorist safe-haven for the second year in a row.

Two years? It’s like something happened very recently to turn Libya into a terrorist safe haven. Can’t be anything Bush did. He was painting dogs at the time.

“With a weak government possessing very few tools to exert control throughout its territory, Libya has become a terrorist safe haven and its transit routes are used by various terrorist groups, notably in the southwest and northeast,” says the 2013 Country Reports on Terrorism, released on Wednesday, April 30.

Three years ago, on March 19, 2011, President Obama unilaterally “authorized” the U.S. military to “begin a limited military action in Libya” to “protect Libyan civilians.” He said by intervening in Libya’s civil war, he was acting “in the interests of the United States and the world.”

The only time Obama has ever acted in the interests of the United States was when he resigned from the Senate.

Unfortunately he then took a step that was drastically against the interests of the United States by occupying the White House instead.
