UN approved the no-fly zone...

I have been fine with the united states just sitting back on this one. Now i don't know what to think.

We do find ourselves in a pretty awkward situation now. We've been telling Gaddafi that he's got to go, and now there's a cease fire. Does Gaddafi still have to go? Or are we content with the cease fire and just turn the other cheek while Libya goes back to "the good old days"?

Did the resolution say anything about ousting him? Such a cluster . Wish we could just mind our own ing business for awhile.

Clinton reminding us me her true colors on this one too. You could practically hear her panties getting wet over the possibility of a military intervention.

yep, Hillary is real hard-ass hawk, I guess trying to prove her NatSec credentials as not being soft on enemies.

meh, as opposed to the yellow discharge on Rummy, and Rovvy's collective panties.

Also, what I was reading this morning seems to think that the military thinks that a no fly zone will not be enough to turn the tide. If its not going to be enough and Qadaffi wins anyway, what the was the point other than making us look stupid as ?

A simple no fly zone would not do it, although I am not entirely convinced.

From what I heard they were contemplating a *bit* more than that.

Qadaffi backed off to try and buy some time and peace.

I think his hold on power is far more tenuous than is widely assumed. He has some loyalty from his army, but many will fight only so long as they get paid, and that is not the kind of solid loyalty that stands up very long under fire.
