I love how the conservatives are trying to freak everyone out about Iran having a US drone.

This is such a non issue it's insane. Just more government bs to make us hate/fear Iran instead of the mountain of actual problems we face.

The Libyan Civil War was part of “a series of tumultuous events in North Africa and the Middle East” (Cottle, 2011, p. 1) in the beginning of 2011. The uprisings spread across numerous countries but Cottle argues they were all unified under the same ideologies; “They called for an end to corruption, improved living conditions, democracy and the protection of human rights” (Ibid). The Libyan Civil War began on the 15th February 2011 with civilian uprisings in Benghazi following the arrest of human rights activist Fethi Tarbel; by the 24th February anti-government militias had taken control of the coastal town of Misrata, the civil war continued to be fought between the pro Gadaffi forces and the anti-government militias until March 17th when the UN Security Council voted to authorize a no-fly zone over Libya and begin a military intervention against Gadaffi (Reuters, 2011).

Does that sound right?
