Some would think otherwise. How about cutting aid to countries who send mercs?

LSE head quits over Gaddafi scandal
A deepening row over the London School of Economics and its dealings with the Gaddafi regime has claimed the career of the university's director. Sir Howard Davies resigned after fresh revelations that the institution had been involved in a deal worth £2.2m to train hundreds of young Libyans to become part of the country's future elite.
An independent inquiry headed by Lord Woolf, a former lord chief justice, will examine the LSE's relationship with Libya and with Muammar Gaddafi's son Saif al-Islam. It will also establish guidelines for international donations to the university.

22 Milliarden in Österreich? - Nur kleiner Teil gesperrt
Ein Vertrauter des Clans und hochrangiger Manager soll sich vor rund eineinhalb Wochen nach Wien abgesetzt haben. Mustafa Zarti, der Vizechef des libyschen Staatsfonds Libyan Investment Authority (LIA), besitze einen österreichischen Pass, berichtete die „Presse“ (Donnerstag-Ausgabe) vorab unter Berufung auf einen ehemaligen Vertrauten Al-Gaddafis.
Nur kleiner Teil gesperrt?
Der Clan habe allein in Österreich rund 30 Milliarden Dollar (21,7 Mrd. Euro) veranlagt, schätzt der von der „Presse“ zitierte Insider. Damit beträf die am Dienstag durch die Oesterreichische Nationalbank (OeNB) erfolgte Sperre von möglichen österreichischen Konten Al-Gaddafis, seiner Familienmitglieder und Vertrauten nur einen Bruchteil des tatsächlichen Vermögens des Al-Gaddafi-Clans hierzulande. In Österreich liege der Großteil des Al-Gaddafi-Geldes offenbar in Stiftungen, hieß es.

Gaddafi warns 'thousands' will die
To Libya now and Colonel Moamar Gaddafi ramped up his threats in another speech overnight, this one warning that he would arm the population and that thousands would die if the West intervened to support the uprising against him.
At the same time his military forces launched an attack aimed at retaking some of the opposition-held ground in the east of the country.
