You don't think that Libya rejoining the civilized world is a major accomplishment? How could you not? There's been a huge victory without the US even firing a shot. The guy is dismantling all of his WMD programs, etc. I'm sure that Khadafi being able to sell oil to the US was a motivating factor, but I don't think it mattered that much to him. There were plenty of other countries willing to import from Libya beforehand (France, China, etc.)
