Hillary is threatening about how ‘nothing is off the table’ in Libya, even as the rebels say they don’t want outside help. But protestations of the provincials on the ground has never deterred the US from doing something spectacularily stupid and ill-advised.

What’s that I hear in the background? Why it’s Billy Bragg singing, it’s all about the price of oil. Imagine that.
