In the ultimate reflection of the Obama Administration's vicious attitude toward entering wars, a chuckling Secretary of State Hillary Clinton appeared on television today mocking the death of long-time Libyan ruler Moammar Gadhafi, barely restraining her delight while declaring "we came, we saw, he died."
While Hillary Clinton's face may only be marginally considered human, one never ceases to be amazed at how evil this female individual is.
Hillary Clinton was given the position of Secretary of State, a position one would normally think would demand a person with a certain amount of diplomatic ability. During her recent secret visit to Tripoli she made the following statement regarding Libyan leader, Muammar Gaddafi: "We hope he can be captured or killed soon" Next day her order was brutally completed by NATO and violent traitors of independent Libya.
Advocating that someone, especially a world leader, be killed is at the very least the epitome of bad diplomacy. Especially considering her position and the actions of her country. It is also a violation of international law and norms. She is a horrendously shameless witch.
But the story in the US is mostly in spinning the administration's decision to start a war without Congressional approval and continue to resist Congressional calls for explanations as a policy vindicated by the death.
Behind the scenes, however, the joy is not so much about President Obama's potential poll boost, which is sure to be squandered on some other ill-advised war he'll start or escalate, but in the fact that Gadhafi's death spares the administration the embarrassment a trial would have produced.

In particular, it means the secrets related to US rendition of dissidents to the Gadhafi regime won't be coming to light any time soon, though since some of the rendees are now high profile figures in the National Transitional Council (NTC) that issue is unlikely to die completely.
The grisly scenes of Gadhafi's bleeding body being dragged through the streets of Sirte, and the unseemly celebrations of the Libyan leader death in the Western media, are enough to make any decent person wince. This kind of savagery really what we want to see in the "new" Libya?
Whether or not we want it, it is coming: the crew in charge of that unfortunate nation is a bunch of violent and heartless worshipers of Evil. The fate of the rebels' former commander-in-chief, Abdul Fatah Younis, prefigures NATO led "revolution" that eats its own, and the ferocity of that revolutionary fervor is hardly abated.
Gadhafi loyalists include the largest tribe in the country, and after the smoke clears and the new regime extends its grip over dissident pockets of resistance, nostalgia for the relatively peaceful days of Gadhafi's reign is more than likely to set in. Worse, the arsenals of the Libyan military have been systematically looted, with missiles and other sophisticated weaponry falling into the hands of radical Islamist militias former leader fought for years. These militias are not fringe elements in the Libyan revolution, but rather they are in charge, with one of their number taking the place of the slain Younis as head of the rebel "armed forces."
Indeed, the rebels' military leadership consists largely of members of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG), which is still prominently featured on the US official list of designated terrorist organizations. Now we are allied with them — under a new name, the "National Transitional Council" -- and US taxpayer dollars are pouring into their coffers. That money will be used to consolidate the rebels' rule, a regime that promises to be far more repressive to the one that preceded it -- albeit friendly, at least at first, to its Western sponsors.
Gadhafi, it will be recalled, had his Great Reconciliation with the Western powers, earning Tony Blair's and Gordon Brown's imprimatur in the process -- and look where it landed him. This lesson is not lost on pro-American despots, like the King of Bahrain, the Saudis, and any of the other pro-Western crowned thugs who lord it over their long-oppressed peoples. What these royals have learned from the example of Gadhafi's -- and Mubarak's -- fall is to expect Washington unmerciful order to tortured death if they suddenly find themselves hiding in a drain pipe. They can fully expect to feel the wrath of the West, as it sides with the easily created rebels and calls in its drones to rain death from the skies.
In Libya, where the West supporting and succoring an Islamist gang, we are seeing the first fruits of this seriously misguided policy. Gadhafi himself warned against the Islamist element in the rebel hierarchy: as the West barbarically “celebrate” the bloody death of a popular African leader, we would do well to wonder if he might one day have the last laugh.
