Weekly Address: President Obama Says the


Mission in Libya is Succeeding
WASHINGTON – In his weekly address, President Obama told the American people that the
military mission in Libya is succeeding even as responsibility is transferred to our NATO allies
and partners. Qaddafi’s air defenses have been taken out, his forces are no longer advancing
across the country, and in places like Benghazi, his forces have been pushed back.  Every
American can be proud of the lives we have saved and of the service of our men and women in
uniform who once again have stood up for our interests and our ideals.

Remarks of President Barack Obama


Washington D.C.
March 26, 2011

Last week, when I ordered our armed forces to help protect the Libyan people from the brutality
of Moammar Qaddafi, I pledged to keep the American people fully informed.  Since then, I’ve
spoken about the limited scope and specific purpose of this mission. Today, I can report that
thanks to our brave men and women in uniform, we’ve made important progress.

As Commander in Chief, I face no greater decision than sending our military men and women
into harm’s way.  And the United States should not—and cannot—intervene every time there’s a
crisis somewhere in the world.

But I firmly believe that when innocent people are being brutalized; when someone like Qaddafi
threatens a bloodbath that could destabilize an entire region; and when the international
community is prepared to come together to save many thousands of lives—then it’s in our
national interest to act.  And it’s our responsibility.  This is one of those times.

Our military mission in Libya is clear and focused.  Along with our allies and partners, we’re
enforcing the mandate of the United Nations Security Council.  We’re protecting the Libyan
people from Qaddafi’s forces.  And we’ve put in place a no fly zone and other measures to
prevent further atrocities.

We’re succeeding in our mission.  We’ve taken out Libya’s air defenses.  Qaddafi’s forces are no
longer advancing across Libya.  In places like Benghazi, a city of some 700,000 that Qaddafi
threatened to show “no mercy,” his forces have been pushed back.  So make no mistake, because
we acted quickly, a humanitarian catastrophe has been avoided and the lives of countless
civilians—innocent men, women and children—have been saved.

As I pledged at the outset, the role of American forces has been limited. We are not putting any
ground forces into Libya. Our military has provided unique capabilities at the beginning, but this
is now a broad, international effort. Our allies and partners are enforcing the no fly zone over
Libya and the arms embargo at sea.  Key Arab partners like Qatar and the United Arab Emirates
have committed aircraft.  And as agreed this week, responsibility for this operation is being
transferred from the United States to our NATO allies and partners.

This is how the international community should work—more nations, not just the United States,
bearing the responsibility and cost of upholding peace and security.

This military effort is part of our larger strategy to support the Libyan people and hold the
Qaddafi regime accountable.  Together with the international community, we’re delivering
urgent humanitarian assistance.  We’re offering support to the Libyan opposition.  We’ve frozen
tens of billions of dollars of Qaddafi’s assets that can help meet the needs and aspirations of the
Libyan people.  And every day, the pressure on Qaddafi and his regime is increasing.     

Our message is clear and unwavering.  Qaddafi’s attacks against civilians must stop.  His forces
must pull back.  Humanitarian assistance must be allowed to reach those in need.  Those
responsible for violence must be held accountable.  Moammar Qaddafi has lost the confidence of
his people and the legitimacy to rule, and the aspirations of the Libyan people must be realized.

In recent days, we’ve heard the voices of Libyans expressing their gratitude for this mission.
“You saved our lives,” said one Libyan.  Said another, “Today, there is hope.”

Every American can be proud of the lives we’ve saved in Libya and of the service of our men
and women in uniform who once again have stood up for our interests and our ideals.  And
people in Libya and around the world are seeing that the United States of America stands with
those who hope for a future where they can determine their own destiny.

When the poet Propertius heard the anticipatory excitement about
Virgil’s forthcoming Aeneid, he hailed the news: ‘something is

rooms gathered round him, poem would Romans expect when they heard that Virgil was
Echephron, Stratius, Perseus, composing an epic about Aeneas? (Aeneid, like the title Odyssey,
Aretus, and Thrasymedes; the sixth announces itself as a poem about a hero—the man whom Virgil
son was Pisistratus, himself introduces in his

Now, the very concept of leadership implies the


proposition that individuals can make a difference.
This proposition has never been universally accepted.
From classical times to the present day, eminent
thinkers have regarded individuals as no more than the
agents and pawns of larger forces, whether the
gods and goddesses of the ancient world or, in the
modern era, race, class, nation, the dialectic, the will of
the people, the spirit of the times, history itself.
Against such forces, the individual dwindles into
insignificance.

As you enter the temple that they name the


Parthenon, all the sculptures you see on what is called the
pediment refer to the birth of Athena, those on the rear
pediment represent the contest for the land between
Athena and Poseidon. The statue itself is made of ivory
and gold. On the middle of her helmet is placed a likeness
of the Sphinx—the tale of the Sphinx I will give
when I come to my description of Boeotia—and on either
side of the helmet are griffins in relief. These griffins, Aristeas
of Proconnesus says in his poem, fight for the gold
with the Arimaspi beyond the Issedones. The gold which
the griffins guard, he says, comes out of the earth; the
Arimaspi are men all born with one eye; griffins are
beasts like lions, but with the beak and wings of an eagle.
I will say no more about the griffins. The statue of
Athena is upright, with a tunic reaching to the feet, and

holds a statue of Victory about four cubits high, and in
Washington D.C. the other hand a spear; at her feet lies a shield and near
March 26, 2011 the spear is a serpent. This serpent would be Erichthonius.
On the pedestal is the birth of Pandora in relief. Hesiod
and others have sung how this Pandora was the first
woman; before Pandora was born there was as yet no
womankind. The only portrait statue I remember seeing
here is one of the emperor Hadrian, and at the entrance
one of Iphicrates, who accomplished many remarkable
achievements.

But I firmly believe that when innocent people are being brutalized; when someone like Qaddafi
threatens a bloodbath that could destabilize an entire region; and when the international
community is prepared to come together to save many thousands of lives—then it’s in our
national interest to act. 
The first Christian meeting places were private houses and it was
only when the religious ritual became more formalized that a
special building was needed. It was probably to divorce themselves
from the old religions that the forms of the “pagan” Greek and
Roman temples were not [immediately] utilized for Christian
worship.

And it’s our responsibility.  This is one of those times. Caesar readily grants them pardon, and receives their excuse, at the request of
the Aedui, because he thought that the summer season was one for an
impending war, not for an investigation. Having imposed one hundred
hostages, he delivers these to the Aedui to be held in charge by them. To the
same place the Carnutes send embassadors and hostages, employing as their
mediators the Remi, under whose protection they were: they receive the same
answers. Caesar concludes the council and imposes a levy of cavalry on the
states.

enforcing the mandate of the United Nations Security Council.

We’re succeeding in our mission.  We’ve taken out Libya’s air defenses.  Qaddafi’s forces are
no longer advancing across Libya.  In places like Benghazi, a city of some 700,000 that Qaddafi
threatened to show “no mercy,” his forces have been pushed back.  So make no mistake, because
we acted quickly, a humanitarian catastrophe has been avoided and the lives of countless
civilians—innocent men, women and children—have been saved.

is now a broad, international effort.

From 1918 until 31 December 1992, Slovakia and the Czech


Republic were partners in the larger nation of Czechoslovakia.
Hungary had ruled Slovakia from the tenth century until 1918
when the Slovaks joined with the Czechs and other local
groups to form Czechoslovakia. In mid-1992, Czech and
Slovak leaders decided to split Czechoslovakia into two
nations, one for Czechs and one for Slovaks; and on 1 January
1993, the Czech Republic and Slovakia were created to
replace Czechoslovakia.

This is how the international community should work—more nations, not just the United States,
bearing the responsibility and cost of upholding peace and security.

major power east of Babylon. the sacred books of the Hebrews, and those of the Indians. The Indian
books announce only peace and gentleness; they forbid the killing of
animals: the Hebrew books speak only of killing, of the massacre of
men and beasts; everything is slaughtered in the name of the Lord; it
is quite another order of things.

This military effort is part of our larger strategy to support the Libyan people and hold the
Qaddafi regime accountable. 
The new centralized imperial form of government was gradually to take shape, with its marked
emphasis on the roles of scholars and officials, and with the Confucian doctrine suitably applied to the
exigencies of the new regime (see LU for brief discussion of Confucius). This general pattern persisted
over the next two millennia. It was also during Han that the empire expanded over most of the area of
present-day China, overland contacts with the civilizations of the West (including
Rome) were first recorded, and tremendous progress was made in the arts, science, technology and
commerce.

We’ve frozen tens of billions of dollars of Qaddafi’s assets that can help meet the needs and
aspirations of the Libyan people. 

They are said there to learn by heart a great number of verses; accordingly
some remain in the course of training twenty years. Nor do they regard it
lawful to commit these to writing, though in almost all other matters, in
their public and private transactions, they use Greek characters. That
practice they seem to me to have adopted for two reasons; because they
neither desire their doctrines to be divulged among the mass of the people,
nor those who learn, to devote themselves the less to the efforts of
memory, relying on writing; since it generally occurs to most men, that, in
their dependence on writing, they relax their diligence in learning
thoroughly, and their employment of the memory.

And every day, the pressure on Qaddafi and his regime is increasing.  

More dangerous to Christendom, however, was the increasing power of the Turks, a nomadic people from central
Asia. Originally pagan, the Turks converted to Islam, and in the course of the eleventh century, under the leadership
of the Salj‰q family, they conquered Khurasan, Persia, Iraq, and Armenia and effectively established a protectorate
over the ‘Abb¢sid caliphate in Baghdad. The weakness of the Byzantines became evident when they were defeated
by the Salj‰qs at the battle of Mantzikert in 1071.
This defeat deprived the Byzantine Empire of some of its richest recruiting grounds for the army, and it was
followed by the loss of Syria, Palestine, and most of Asia Minor. It was unlikely that the empire could recover its
losses without assistance from the West.
  

Our message is clear and unwavering.  Qaddafi’s attacks against civilians must stop.  His forces
must pull back.  Humanitarian assistance must be allowed to reach those in need.  Those
responsible for violence must be held accountable. 
Whether he obtained his skill from battles in
youth, or whether he acquired it slowly as
the years passed, Cyrus was now a
commander with a fine strategic sense.

Moammar Qaddafi has lost the confidence of his people and the legitimacy to rule, and the
aspirations of the Libyan people must be realized.

WASHINGTON – In his weekly address, President Obama told the American people that the
military mission in Libya is succeeding even as responsibility is transferred to our NATO allies
and partners.

Every government, let its form be what it may, contains within itself a
principle common to all, which is, that of a sovereign power, or a power
over which there is no control, and which controls all others: and as it is
impossible to construct a form of government in which this power does
not exist, so there must of necessity be a place, if it may be so called, for
it to exist in.
In despotic monarchies this power is lodged in a single person, or
sovereign. His will is law; which he declares, alters or revokes as he
pleases, without being accountable to any power for so doing. Therefore,
the only modes of redress, in countries so governed, are by petition or
insurrection. And this is the reason we so frequently hear of insurrections
in despotic governments; for as there are but two modes of redress, this is
one of them.
Perhaps it may be said that as the united ressistance of the people is able,
by force, to control the will of the sovereign, that therefore, the
controlling power lodges in them;
but it must be understood that I am speaking of such powers only as are
constituent parts of the government, not of those powers which are
externally applied to resist and overturn it.

Qaddafi’s air defenses have been taken out, his forces are no longer advancing across the
country, and in places like Benghazi, his forces have been pushed back.  Every American can be
proud of the lives we have saved and of the service of our men and women in uniform who once
