In this weeks episode, Logan and Matt touch base and lament the 10 year anniversary of the US led NATO bombing campaign of Libya. Since it is a lesser known adventure of "Obama's Wars", this episode explores why we went into Libya, and why it is just another example of the failures of American foreign policy. Logan and Matt also show has Libya is a failed state now, with open-air slave markets, and is suffering from a refugee crisis that is claiming thousands of lives every year.
