Deciding when it is appropriate to bomb another country is a very touchy subject for me. It seems like bombing other countries has never helped the USA. As for the current issue in Libya I can’t help but wonder if the real reason we are getting involved is because of their oil. I would like to have faith in our country and hope that we really are just trying to help the rebels and protect innocent citizens. If it is true that all we want to do is help these people and we are in fact saving thousands of lives, then I guess I would say we were doing the right thing. And that is it possibly the right thing to do. I believe that the only appropriate time to attack another country is only to save innocent lives. But I just don’t know if bombing other countries will save citizens. But I definitely hope we are doing the right thing and hope this doesn’t turn out like Iraq.
This clip is an interesting video of the members the UN discussing their decision to bomb Libya.
