Hillary sees Gaddafi's ouster as feather in her cap but it unleashed terror
Hillary Clinton still sees the 2011 Libyan regime change as a feather in her cap as Secretary of State, but the violent ouster of Muammar Gaddafi turned Libya into a badlands for Islamic terrorists who have spread their killing sprees far and wide, just as Gaddafi warned

Since Gaddafis fall in 2011, Libya has exported thousands of its own extremists to support jihad in other countries. In Syria, one group of Libyan supporters of ISIS went by the name of Katibat al-Battar al Libi. One of its leaders was none other than Abdelhamid Abaaoud, the suspected organizer of the recent Paris attacks.

With the release of Hillary Clintons emails, we now know that she had learned from an adviser that France was stoking the uprising to impose a new government of Libya to favor French firms and national interests, particularly regarding the oil industry in Libya. France used humanitarian flights to shuttle executives from leading oil, construction and aerospace firms into the country to negotiate with the opposition so they could profit from the new order.
To this day, Clinton remains unapologetic about her strong advocacy of U.S. intervention. Yet Libya has become a lawless land fought over by 1,700 armed groups and militias. At least a third of the countrys population has been affected by the fighting and lacks adequate access to health services, according to the United Nations.
Libya today in spite of the expectations we had at the time of the revolution its much, much worse, one Mideast expert told PBS Frontline. Criminality is skyrocketing. Insecurity is pervasive. There are no jobs. Its hard to get food and electricity. Theres fighting, theres fear.
I see very few bright spots.
