It disgusts me, media in general.

There are several other warlords and tyrants in Africa and South West Asia that would make Gaddafi look like a feeble kitten, yet we live in ignorant bliss.

QFT.

We do still have the issue of Somalia. I mean, at least Libya has a somewhat civilized government, albeit corrupt. Somalia is an anarchist state whose people trade blood for money, and all that happens when they pull a stunt or kill some foreign nationals is they get a week or two of media attention at best before they're brushed under the rug.

Actually that's probably what will happen with Libya as well unless Gaddafi does something that the UN might truly give a damn about, but it's kind of hard for him to do anything of that calibre with the forces of multiple nations breathing down his neck.

Not enough oil in those countries.
