I can see where a poly sci major might argue it coincidence, but I am a scientist, and I cannot deny that there must be some generating cause. Can you name one that makes more sense that Iraq?
Food prices, the revolution next door in Tunisia, and the protests next door in Egypt, to name three.

As you should know, science makes it impossible to say that Bush's invasion of Iraq had no effect in Libya. I just think you and club are wildly overstating the case.
