You mean Libya that was bombarded by France and other European militaries with relatively small US involvement? The same Libya that bombed planes[0][1], killed people in front of embassies[2], helped prop up monsters like Idi-Amin[2], waged war against Chad[4] and Egypt[5] and suggested breaking up Switzerland because dictators son brutalized his servants[6]?

The country which was in midst of protests which their government, dictatorial btw, decided to violently suppress?[7]

Yeah, nice guy all around that Gaddaffi. Oils the only reason anybody would want him gone.
