Sen. McCain: Share What You Know About Libya

Written by David Frum on Friday April 22, 2011

Sen. McCain is urging recognition of the anti-Qaddafi rebels as Libya's legitimate government. But his call would hold more weight if he explained why he's convinced they aren't inspired by or beholden to radical Islamists.

Sen. John McCain in Libya urges recognition of the anti-Qaddafi rebels as the country's legitimate government. I assume he has had more extensive discussions with the rebels than most of us. It would be a real service if he would sit down for a detailed interview with somebody knowledgeable to tell what he knows about the rebels and detail the reasons for his confidence that the rebels are not inspired by or beholden to radical Islamism.
