The Obama administration said it was just trying to protect civilians. Its actions reveal it was looking for regime change.
Because the ruler was colonel gadaffi who wanted to strengthen co-operation between arab countries. He also played a major hand in the African union. Though he wasn’t the best person in the world but amongst dictators he was surely among the best as during his tenure libya’s living standard was fairly good compared to African countries.
He supported revolutionaries all around middle east which undermined American influence, wanted to strengthen arab co-operation but also wanted to be its leader. The Arabs uniting or undermining American hegemony is not something that was taken lightly back then.
Morover i think Obama thought he could do it better than Bush and it would turn out in his favour. He literally started pumping money into any anti establishment groups willing to fight Gadaffi most of them were much worse than Gadaffi. This situation on the ground was total chaos, This groups flushed with weapons fought the revolution for political means and ended up destroying the country. This new Hillary- Obama doctrine failed very badly and thats why Bengazi happened.
Introduction
The story dates to the early 1950s, when the U.S. Air Force, in response to the North Korean invasion that started the Korean War, bombed and napalmed cities, towns and villages across the North. It was mostly easy pickings for the Air Force, whose B-29s faced little or no opposition on many missions.
The Iranian military, with the support and financial assistance of the United States government, overthrows the government of Premier Mohammad Mosaddeq and reinstates the Shah of Iran. Iran remained a solid Cold War ally of the United States until a revolution ended the Shah’s rule in 1979.
