From the Halls of Montezuma, To the Shores Of Tripoli

Anybody ever paid any attention to this?  In 1801 America sent it's naval fleet to Tripoli (Libya) to put down regimes that were capturing whites aboard ships, and enslaving them.  Muslims holding Christians as slaves. 

The craziest thing is that Thomas Jefferson is always seen as slave owner/pushed slavery all this shit, but in reality he ended it in Libya.
