Foxnew.com has an article about a recent White House meeting that discussed an estimated 20,000 shoulder-fired heat-seeking missiles capable of bringing down commercial airliners being missing from Libya's arsenal. Before Obama decided to intervene in the Libyan uprising, Qaddafi was as quiet as the proverbial church mouse. Why? Because President Reagan had his palace bombed and literally blew him off the commode. Now that Qaddafi is gone and looting and black market sales are going strong, there a very good possibility that some of those 20,000 missiles will find their way to the U.S. and be used to bring down commercial passenger jets.
Before folks start trying to compare Libya with Iraq or Afghanistan, forget it. With Qaddafi in power, Libya wasn't about to do anything to provoke an attack from the U.S. He very narrowly survived the first attack from us and he had no stomach for another. Every time it thundered he ducked. But now he's gone and Libya is becoming a weapons bazaar for terrorists.
Man am I glad we got into that fight!
