En tout cas, heureusement que l'OTAN est venu pour pacifier la Libye en 2011.
Pas que je regrette Kadhafi, hein!
Mais l'intention humanitaire de l'intervention militaire de 2011 n'est pas vraiment atteinte, puisque les civils continue de souffrir d'une guerre civile quasi permanente depuis.

The real lesson of Libya is that when a state is narrowly targeting rebels, the international community needs to refrain from launching a military campaign on humanitarian grounds to help the militants. Western audiences should also beware cynical rebels who exaggerate not only the state’s violence but their own popular support, too. Even where a regime is highly flawed, as Qaddafi’s was, chances are that intervention will only fuel civil war—destabilizing the country, endangering civilians, and paving the way for extremists. The prudent path is to promote peaceful reform of the type that Qaddafi’s son Saif was pursuing.
