Bin Laden's assassination has set off a clamoring call for Qaddafi to meet the same fate. Its an assassination windfall. Its interesting because if the quotes in the below linked CS Monitor article are accurate, Libyans have far more freedom of expression than Americans do. If you were to get out there and start clamoring for the assassination of your president, you would get a visit from the FBI. We just don't do that except if you are in one of the many fringe wings of the GOP, then we make exceptions and call it patriotic...
CS Monitor:
If US killed Osama bin Laden, ask Libyans, why not assassinate Qaddafi?
“America must do something to kill this man, because he is killing all the people of Libya..."
“Kill, kill Qaddafi!”
“Qaddafi wants to kill all Libyans.”
“No matter how accurate they are, bombs kill civilians. They are immoral..."
