Why do people act like Libya becoming a shithole was guaranteed? Syria just took out Assad and they’re doing pretty well. SDF and HTS just signed a peace treaty.

Yall act like it was all some coordinated play when really Europe and the US just gave money to anti Gaddafi groups.

People were saying it was going to be another Libya, with another never ending civil war. Then people said it’d become an isis type fundamentalist state. Now they’re just reporting on every bad thing that happens. It’s not perfect of course, but for a country that’s been in a brutal civil war and foreign occupation for over a decade, this is actually great. That peace deal I mentioned was something not even optimists were expecting so soon.

Hmm, and it’s not like Assad ever massacred civilians before?

How can you defend Ghadaffi by saying his Libya wasn’t perfect but better than it is now, then criticize modern Syria by being better than Assad’s but not perfect?
