On Friday, President Obama opened a fourth front in the war against ISIS.
You probably didn't notice because neither the news media nor Congress cared. Bombing countries is simply what this administration does.
It didn't consult Congress beforehand and it didn't consult the internationally recognised government of Libya either.

Libya's internationally recognised government Saturday condemned a US air strike west of Tripoli believed to have killed a top Islamic State group operative and dozens of others the previous day.
In a statement, the government, based in the far east of the country, denounced the raid targeting an IS training camp in Sabratha, saying it was not coordinated with the authorities and was "a clear and flagrant violation of sovereignty of the Libyan state".

Sovereignty is for people with small militaries, not the United States.
We violated Pakistan's sovereignty with our drone strikes and no one in Washington cared.
We violated Syria's sovereignty with our bombing and no one in Washington cared.
We are simply above that.

Not only are we above international law, we are even above our own laws.

The Administration claimed that its authority came from the 2001 authorization to use military force against al-Qaeda in retaliation for the attacks of 9/11. But ISIS did not even exist on 9/11. How can the 2001 authorization be twisted to include bombing Libya in 2016?

Constitutional laws are so 20th Century.

49 people were killed. No biggie. Do we know who all those people are? Of course not.
Well, that's not totally true. We know who two of those people were. They were hostages.

Two Serbian nationals held hostage in Libya since November were among those killed in Friday's air strikes by US warplanes, the Serbian government says.

Serbia was in the process of trying to secure their release. I guess we saved them the trouble.

Italy has agreed to host our drone assassination missions against Libya, so we can expect lots more bombing in the near future.

The Italians granted permission for the drones to be used only defensively, to protect U.S. special-operations forces in Libya, the officials said.

Oh, yeah. There will be boots on the ground too.

The good thing is that bombing will fix Libya for good. Just like we fixed Libya for good five years ago. Boy, I hope you like sequels.

Just as there was no al Qaeda or ISIS to attack in Iraq until the U.S. bombed its government, there was no ISIS in Libya until NATO bombed it. Now the U.S. is about to seize on the effects of its own bombing campaign in Libya to justify an entirely new bombing campaign in that same country. The New York Times editorial page, which supported the original bombing of Libya, yesterday labeled plans for the new bombing campaign “deeply troubling,” explaining: “A new military intervention in Libya would represent a significant progression of a war that could easily spread to other countries on the continent.” In particular, “this significant escalation is being planned without a meaningful debate in Congress about the merits and risks of a military campaign that is expected to include airstrikes and raids by elite American troops” (the original Libya bombing not only took place without Congressional approval, but was ordered by Obama after Congress rejected such authorization).

That's OK. I'm sure that doing more of what we've already done will fix what we helped cause to happen in the first place.
