It’s a question we seem to be asking more and more often. What’s next? This time we ask it of Libya. What’s next for Libya? With Kaddafi dead, one of his sons dead as well and another son’s whereabouts unknown…What’s next?

After 42 years of brutal rule, Kaddafi met a brutal end last week at the hands of Libyan Rebels in his hometown of Sirte.

Kadaffi, from what we know, was making a run for it in a convoy of some 75 vehicles when on the outskirts of town, a French Fighter jet and an American drone opened fire. Neither the French nor we knew Kadaffi was in that convoy and while many vehicles and those inside them were destroyed, Kaddafi’s vehicle was not.

With rebels in hot pursuit, Kaddafi bailed out and ran on foot diving in to a culvert, a sewer pipe with a loyalist. That’s where the rebels found him. From reports, the loyalist was yelling, apparently thinking those who were approaching were fellow loyalists, “The Master is here!” That is apparently when a rebel fighter fired into the pipe wounding Kaddafi then dragged him out while Kaddafi, who have vowed to fight to the last drop of blood started begging not to be killed.

That rebel fighter, wearing a New York Yankees baseball cap, disarmed the dictator of his golden gun and what happened over the next several minutes is somewhat unclear. There was shouting, chanting, gunfire, and Kaddafi, still alive for the moment, was paraded, pushed, shoved, beaten with shoes, hair pulled and roughed up from one vehicle to another, his shirt soaked in blood. Moments later, Kaddafi was dead of a gunshot to the head.

Now, in the nearby town of Mizrata, the body of the brutal dictator who ordered bombings, terror and the deaths of his own people over 42 years is on display…in the freezer section of a grocery market.

The United Nations and their High Commissioner for Human Rights, Rupert Colville, has the gall to demand an investigation as to how, exactly Gaddafi died.

Seriously, who the hell cares?

Was he caught in a sudden crossfire between rebels and loyalists? Was he shot by his own supporters? Was he executed by the rebels?

What does it matter? WHY does it matter? Who the hell cares?

He’s dead. He’s been stripped to the waist so those filing through the frozen falafel, ice cream and dead dictator aisle can see the bullet holes in his chest and head.

Kaddafi got exactly what he deserved and it couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.

But…what’s next?

8 months of civil kinetic action have left the country in a bad way. There are some 20 thousand missing shoulder fired missiles, destroyed buildings, roads, airfields and homes not to mention thousands of wounded and no clear leader.

There IS the National Transitional Council which will declare Liberation tomorrow and whose acting Prime Minister, Mahoud Jibril says he will step down as soon as that declaration is made. There will be, or so we’re told, democratic elections sometime in a few months, to pick new leaders and form a new government.

We should in no way, despite our willingness to aid the Libyans, believe that this new government, this new democracy, will in any way look like a western democracy. That would be folly.

Libya, just like Egypt, now has a vacuum where a dictator used to be and in that part of the world, any vacuum whether created by attrition or by force, becomes a prime target for the Muslim Brotherhood and has we are now seeing in Egypt, it’s NOT a good thing.

Egypt is a mess.

Obama made it clear that the Muslim Brotherhood should have a seat at the Egypt table in forming a new government and what has been taking place since is a disaster. Iranian war ships steaming through the Suez Canal. The 30 plus year peace between Egypt and Israel hanging by a thread. Coptic Christians been beaten, shot and run down by military tanks in the streets of Cairo while the Brotherhood tightens their grip on the government. To see the video of the post Obama Egypt, please click here.

The Obama administration told us, though we knew better, that the Muslim Brotherhood was benign and not a threat, when in fact, the Brotherhood is HAMAS by a different name.

The MB hold in Egypt was made possible by a vacuum and supported by Obama.

Now, in Libya, we have a vacuum supported by Obama.

The rebels, who remain vastly an unknown entity, have been removing those shoulder fired weapons from stockpiles and it is now believed that many of those could already be in Gaza where they could, in the wrong hands, be used against Israeli planes both military and commercial.

If Egypt is any sort of road map, what lies in store for Libya could well be more of the same. Those who fought for freedom and democracy in Libya could, after the celebrating ends, find themselves right back in the same old hole being brutalized by another regime.

When you step back and look at the big picture, the image isn’t pretty.

In Iran, an uprising of the people was ignored by Obama and the anti western regime remains in place. In Egypt, an uprising by the people is backed by Obama and the regime changes to an anti western mindset. In Libya, a popular uprising gets backed by Obama and waiting in the wings is the same organization which now has considerable power in Egypt.

In Iraq, Obama has made it clear that ALL troops will be removed by the end of this year which will, and we all know it, create a vacuum in that country.

Obama is moving to pull all troops from Afghanistan as soon as possible and guess what will occur there? Yep…another vacuum.

When you face the reality that the Muslim Brotherhood IS Hamas, the outlook for Israel is not a good one. Clearly, elements of a fractured al Qaeda will try to stake claims on various empty corners of the region but it is the MB which has the most in depth organization and therefore it will be the MB which steps in and Israel, as long as Obama is in the white house, can’t count on any substantive support from the U.S. leaving them, though certainly capable, on their own.

With another brutal dictator on ice in the region, the Obama doctrine continues to assist in the creation of vacuums where the Muslim Brotherhood stands ready to fill them.

A liberal friend told me the other day, “Craig what will it be? 1 or 2 days before a Cheney declares it was policies of theirs that got Kadaffi? The PRESIDENT got it just right on this one with a already too spread thin military. Of course you will never get proper credit where credit is due!”

So, in response to my liberal/socialist friend Todd…

It’s been more than 2 days now so please, PLEASE provide evidence of any Cheney stating it was THEIR policy that got Kaddafi in the comment box below this post. ALSO…if Obama “got it just right on this one…” it would have to follow that helping to create a vacuum for the MB, as he did in Egypt and allowing tens of thousands of surface to air shoulder fired missiles to disappear are things for which YOU, Todd, feel Obama should receive credit.

It says a great deal about the liberal/socialist mindset when things that lead to the brutal murder of Christians and the replacement of one brutal regime being replaced by another are things for which PROPER CREDIT is due…doesn’t it?

Patriots, you too should feel free to use the comment box below.
