8. All deaths are the responsibility of the interventionists
There wasn't much of a revolt, and it was about to be crushed--probably with VERY little loss of life--when the western powers intervened. Those who tug on heartstrings to justify this violation of sovereignty in a very complex society are responsible for EVERY DEATH SINCE MARCH 19TH.

It's their guilt. It's their responsibility. The forthcoming keenings of "oh, how could anyone expect this..." are pathetic self-serving excuses.

At the time of the UN intervention, somewhere around 100 deaths had occurred, and virtually none of the protests where they happened were non-violent.

Now we're faced with the second act of a revolution, which history shows to be rather messy, and if it comes to a boil, it will do so in the middle of an election where the opposition can use it as an issue.

Once again, though, I proclaim that I don't know what's about to happen, unlike the chirping champions of certainty.
