What a rag of an article, the Libyan civil war destabilized Libya not the NATO intervention

I mean, maybe if they had left Gadaffi use the army to quash his opponents, it would have kept Libya stable? I think that's what the dudes who wrote the article would have wanted.

Canada is an international resource extraction company fighting an politico-economic proxy war with China.

Everything seems congruent with that strategy.

Far left bordering on extreme left with mostly factual reporting.

LMAO mediabiasfactcheck. If you still use that site you honestly deserve whatever incoherent political philosophy it gives you

Anything to say about the post's actual content?

What is your issue with the site? That it looks mostly at the source as a whole and not the specific story?

It's funny that extremists dismiss MBFC but can't produce a single, credible alternative. It's like being fact checked triggers them but they know that any "fact checking" they try to do will also be fact checked further enraging them. Sorry I triggered you.

EDIT: OC made a salient argument that we can't counter. DOWNVOTE AND RUN AWAY!
