    Actually, only 11 of the 22 Arab League nations were present to vote on the Libya intervention, 6 of which were GCC members - aka America’s gulf monarchy allies. So it’s not like there was universal consensus independent of US interests.

    No, you're right, Sam. War criminals shouldn't have a megaphone. When Merv Griffin weirdly found himself interviewing Albert Speer, fresh from prison and busily reinventing himself, he was so dumbfounded that he didn't even know where to start. Jon Stewart has fewer excuses.

    • @Mantriox
      @Mantriox Před rokem +7

      To be fair, Speer was even more on the nose about it. When asked if it was because of his apostasy and good personality that he wasn't sentenced to life he responded "well, if it was, I must be thankful". Because they are shielded by the institution that is the United States, the fact that Hillary Clinton et al. are war criminals is actually obscured, and so they are obligated to behave as if they weren't war criminals. This allows them to trick stupid people. Speer did not have this luxury, being associated with what is popularly known as the most evil and criminal regime to have ever existed

      Except Sam is WRONG. The UN mandate was ALL MEANS NECESSARY which includes eliminating Qadhafi.
      The Security Council today effectively authorized the use of force in Libya to protect civilians from attack, specifically in the eastern city of Benghazi, which Colonel Muammar Al-Qadhafi has reportedly said he will storm tonight to end a revolt against his regime.
      Acting under Chapter VII of the UN Charter, which provides for the use of force if needed, the Council adopted a resolution by 10 votes to zero, with five abstentions, authorizing Member States “to take all necessary measures… to protect civilians and civilian populated areas under threat of attack in the Libyan Arab Jamhariya, including Benghazi, while excluding an occupation force.”
      The abstentions included China and Russia, which have the power of veto, as well as Brazil, Germany and India. [Sam claimed Russia and China were in agreement when they were not]
      Expressing grave concern at the deteriorating situation, the escalation of violence, and the heavy civilian casualties, the Council established a no-fly zone, banning all flights - except those for humanitarian purposes - in Libyan airspace in order to help protect civilians. It specifically calls on Arab League states to cooperate with other Member States in taking the necessary measures.
      The Arab League last weekend requested the Council to impose a no-fly zone after Mr. Qadhafi was reported to have used warplanes, warships, tanks and artillery to seize back cities taken over in what started out a month ago as mass protests by peaceful civilians seeking an end to his 41-year rule.

    Jon understands theses issues well enough, yet he doesn't give adequate pushback to powerful people spewing lies. Likewise, Jon has shown that he can give adequate pushback to bigoted nonsense and lies when it comes to low level politicians, but when it comes to people with huge influence and reach like Dave Chappelle, he just provides excuses and cover.

      I agree that, in a perfect world, Jon shoulda pushed back a lot more in this one, but that would have had him pushing back on literally every sentence. I feel he was riding the line and he knew it. He still got them to talk. I would have loved to see an on-screen annotation with some corrections, at least... but I applaud Jon's in-the-moment sense of when pushing would cause the subject to be less talkative.
      @ his take on Dave Chapelle, Jon's a comedian and the conversation was moving towards censoring comedy. Jon's just never going to jump on that with both feet, so he gave a lukewarm take.

Bush debating President George W. Bush.

    After coming to power in Libya, the RCC government of Gaddafi initiated a process of directing funds toward providing education, health care and housing for all. Public education in the country became free and primary education compulsory for both sexes. Medical care became available to the public at no cost, but providing housing for all was a task the RCC government was unable to complete.[2] Under Gaddafi, per capita income in the country rose to more than US$11,000, the 5th highest in Africa.
    During the 1980s and 1990s, Gaddafi, in alliance with the Eastern Bloc and Fidel Castro's Cuba, openly supported rebel movements like Nelson Mandela's African National Congress, Yasser Arafat's Palestine Liberation Organization, the Provisional Irish Republican Army and the Polisario Front (Western Sahara).
