Obama on Libya

So Obama said:  "But we can’t stand idly by when a tyrant tells his people that there will be no mercy.”"  In fact, one of the most cruel and threatening speech was delivered two days ago by the Saudi King although it was ignored by the Western press.  He made clear and categorical threats and even warned against criticizing the clerics.  And when Saudi foreign minister threatened to "cut off any finger that extends to the kingdom" there was not one response from any Western capital.
