Or does Libya remind you of Jagged Alliance 2?

Sure it does.

We just need the laptop-guy and rebels may yet win.

Kevin Butler will awesome your face off.

Is it just me or didn't Colonel Mohammar Khaddafi like fake his death in like 1988?

 

I mean i thought he was dead but obviously isn't.

Lets call Osama and the Mujahedin for some international intervention, they can like solve it with who faked his death most times contest.

The Arab League has called on the UN to authorise a no-fly zone. Britain, France, America and Australia back a no-fly zone. NATO/EU will likely support one soon since the Arab League has thrown their weight behind it.

 

UN approval is not required for a no-fly zone - with Arab League support, NATO has the trigger of international and multilateral support it was waiting for to act.

Everyone's going to be in favour of a no fly zone until we accidentally - and inevitably - hit some residential civilian target.

 

I utterly fail to see why we should risk pilots taking part in an action which will be abandoned long before it does any good just so Independent readers can ignore the fundamental contradictions in their worldview.

Yeah, OK mate, I think that's utterly cynical and a fundamental misreading of the situation.

That was kind of my point. My analysis is that the rebels are losing because they are fundamentally and inescapably disorganised. A no-fly zone at best reduces the 'war' to 2 dimensions, and the rebels still can't pass muster.

 

Incidentally, it's gratifying to see one of the world's largest exporters of oil and gas blocking UN resolutions to intervene. I'm not a naif who complains when oil is a power factor, but it's one in the eye for those who claim only the US is guilty of doing it.
