Libya

Now that the war in Libya is winding down it has been revealed that the NATO countries real motive was regime change and not just protecting innocent civilians and the reason for this is oil.
And this is what the information manager at the rebel-controlled Arabian Gulf Oil Company, Libya's largest oil producer, had to say about who it now intends to trade with: "We don't have a problem with Western countries like the Italians, French and UK companies. But we may have some political issues with Russia, China and Brazil." Those last three countries weren't involved in the NATO mission in Libya.
The US will get no oil from Libya but recall that many said the reason the US went into Iraq was to get oil.
Those who claim that the U.S. invaded Iraq in 2003 to get control of the country's giant oil reserves will be left scratching their heads by the results of last weekend's auction of Iraqi oil contracts: Not a single U.S. company secured a deal in the auction of contracts that will shape the Iraqi oil industry for the next couple of decades. Two of the most lucrative of the multi-billion-dollar oil contracts went to two countries which bitterly opposed the U.S. invasion — Russia and China — while even Total Oil of France, which led the charge to deny international approval for the war at the U.N. Security Council in 2003, won a bigger stake than the Americans in the most recent auction. "[The distribution of oil contracts] certainly answers the theory that the war was for the benefit of big U.S. oil interests," says Alex Munton, Middle East oil analyst for the energy consultancy Wood Mackenzie, whose clients include major U.S. companies. "That has not been demonstrated by what has happened this week."

This is similar to what happened after WW11 where Russia took half of Europe and the US took a cemetery in France to bury the dead. In addition the US spent time, money and energy rebuilding Europe and Japan. How many times in history has that happened.
The US can rightfully be blamed for mistakes in foreign policy but we have some things honorably.
What are your thoughts on how Libya is working out and what do you think should be done in Syria as they kill innocent people
