There are few conflicts which are fought between orcs and white knights. Important for the intervention in Libya are questions such as whether there will have been some net gain in human suffering averted, and if there is a way out at some point (a mere delay is pointless).
So, Nato countries may as well have supported Gaddafi. War over quicker, much less human suffering. I thought the intervention happened because rebel government was democratic and it, oh dear, turned out to be full of self-proclaimed leaders who want to be Gaddafi instead of Gaddafi...

Your ability to find excuses is truly astonishing...
