An unconstitutional humanitarian effort turned regime change ends in the murder of a foreign leader.

This whole thing was unlawful from the begining. If one still believes the U.S. constitution is the law of the land that is. And if not then well anything goes, the end justifies the means.

It's always better to murder our enemy outright than have him stand trial and take the chance he might provide proof of our own countless crimes against humanity.

Hmm, right, is Georgia not a sovereign nation since the dissolution of the USSR?

Correcto-mundo. But I was talking about Libya not Georgia.
