Feel free to send me messages, please be willing to wait 6-8 years for a reply.

1-7 hours if you at least tried to make it readable.

Immediately if you are Yax, Telec, or legendary.

Never if you are mythic, you guys smell funny.

I was honestly expecting this crisis to spread a little further. maybe even to china.


But, i guess i will just have to hope the rebels in Libya can overcome this split in opinion and keep focused on what matters right now.

In Libya, rebel fighters have now encircled the Gaddafi stronghold containing 500 enemy fighters in the western mountains. They hope to take it soon. And the National Transitional Council has appointed Suleiman Mahmud al-Obeidi as the "interim chief of staff [of the rebel armed forces] until further decisions are made", according to Mahmud Shammam, an NTC spokesman.

On Topic: Gaddafi is a raving lunatic. He's reached the qualification line for being bat[REDACTED] insane, and killed it for getting in his way.
And why aren't we helping in Syria? The Chinese need to damn well shut up and back the hell off. I just lost a relative there.
(Very loosely related, but still... he was my great-grandmother's daughter's son-in-law's kid. If that gave you a headache, you're not alone.)

Oh crap.

This isn't going to end well, Israel needs stability at the moment, otherwise the Palestinians are going to eat the country alive.

China gives me a damn headache. The only do things when it benefits themselves.

Off-topic:Trolls can't troll this thread since their little uneducated minds can't comprehend a single thing posted in this thread.

China have every right to choose their stance, but can anyone inform me if they are preventing others to intervene?

Fair enough, as for them preventing others from intervening...They're just taking a political stance right now. No military blockades or anything along the line.


Weren't they threatening to go to war with the rest of NATO if we intervened in Syria?

That site is full of bull-blam!-. Stop spreading false information.
Of course it is, I was using the stie as an example. Kinda like a little lesson on the various methods of propaganda.

Then say that instead of posting some retarded webpage and going "look here!". Some people will believe that.

Theres a bunch of reasons this isnt over yet. Firstly, the weather. That sounds stupid i know, but in a bad day, both sides can get about 3 hours of fighting. I heard that in a news report anyway. Metal can burn hands in the sort of heat you get in Libya, so fighting is fiercest in the early morning

On the bright side though, rebel commander Areesh Aafi says that rebels are very close to Ziltan and have hooked up with rebels from Ziltan, a city near Tripoli. When Ziltan is taken, the road to Tripoli is basically clear
