I can't help thinking the US will help install a temporary coalition government or the troops/tribes that do take over mess it all up even more.

The US haven't really wanted to have much to do with the whole episode.....don't think they want another I-raq!

The air cover has been more of a British/French initiative (stop Gadaffi Duck bombing civilians and let them get on with it). Kind of gives them less to blame us for.

Will he humiliate himself by being found hiding in a basket full or oranges in a street market or something similar? He has to go a bit to outdo Sadam on that point.

Let's hope the west is now willing to guide and not interfere as Liya attempts to reinvent itself. Good luck to their people I say.

Why did we 'help out' again?

Its what we said this morning. The only reason any country is bothered is because of all that oily stuff.

Now then, I'm off to catch up on more important(personal) goings on in Cyprus.

38 yrs later, last week, and people are still waiting for an answer

In principle i'm behind it, just think it may get a bit messy now.

It isn't like were are stealing oil off them is it. The people of libya get what they want, and we get a more reliable source of oil.

Thats if it transition goes well.
