To those of you who think that Americans are being slaughtered wholesale
by international terrorists, an interesting statistic: out of 928 people
killed by international terrorist action in the year preceding the
bombing of Libya, 23 were American.
 
This does not seem to me to justify any claim that the USA were "forced"
to take action, unless of course you value one American life at about 39
other lives.
