What’s your point here? Nobody disputes that at the time of NATO involvement the rebels were losing, badly. They’d been routed, pushed back all the way to Benghazi with loyalist forces entering the city. The fact that Younis had defected a month earlier didn’t do anything to prevent an imminent civilian massacre, NATO did.

As I’ve repeatedly stated, I think there are more economic reasons for the intervention than humanitarian ones. And we do not exactly have a good record sponsoring the “rebels” against the “bad guys.”
