History repeats itself

2011 - Ousting Gaddafi not immediate goal: US
Published Updated

2011 - Ousting Gaddafi not immediate goal: US
1991 - Ousting Saddam not immediate goal: US
2003 - 'We should have taken out Saddam when we invaded Iraq in 1991.' announced George Bush.
Let us wait for another twelve years for a future president of the US to say about Gaddafi what the Bush said about Saddam. History repeats itself in an ugly way, when it comes to the Muslim world and its tyrant dictators. Won't we, the Muslims, ever learn from history?
