I personally think it had to be done. It's for the best of the Libyan people in the long run. I just hope the US doesn't go overboard like normal and think they have to land ground troops and trying to control everything with them. That's when I could see the people slashing back.

wow this is the third Islamic country the West has attacked in the last 10 years

there is just so much other points to make so much shit to say, but just that one fact i cant get out of my head, 3 in 10 years, wow..


i personally think the west waited until the rebels were absolutely desperate and willing to negotiate anything.... west coming in like, "lookie here rebels you're between a rock and a hard place, we'll help ya, but dem oil fields.... "

shitty thing is once the west gains control of oil and gas fields, companies will move in and sell off the product to china or somewhere else more record profits for them, while we'll still be stuck with the same gas prices, fcksicle!

How does implementing a no fly zone affect Libya? So does that mean before, you could fly through that zone? Did the allies implement that or did Libya do that?

TIA

It basically means that if any Libyan military jet takes off, they are subjected to a sidewinder missile up their ass.

i heard that the libyan government exploded a plane on top of London which gave debris bigger than the city itself! Killed hundreds of people

edit: This was way back then.

Wish Gaddafi would give himself some respect and step aside like Mubarak.
