US Sends Marines to Italy as Libya Tensions Mount. US ambassador hauled in over al-Libi raid

 Protesters burn an American flag and shout anti-American slogans denouncing the violation of Libya's sovereignty in the abduction of Abu Anas al-Libi, in the center of Benghazi, Libya, Oct. 7, 2013.

The US' capture of Abu Anas al-Libi is turning into a full-blown diplomatic incident. Libya's government has summoned the US ambassador for questioning over what it terms the "kidnapping" of the alleged al-Qaeda operative, CNN reports. The US, meanwhile, sees the situation as perilous enough that it has moved 200 marines from Spain to Italy, so they'll be ready to respond should the US diplomatic mission in Libya come under fire.

    This administration is chopping at the bit to start another war in the middle east and here at home. Unbelievable.

      They won't be satisfied until they have one in every country.
