Why?


If you even have to ask, you are not given an answer.

What on earth is that supposed to mean.

Speak up, boy.


he is saying every civilian is a Unlawful Combatant basically, but said statement can only apply to the Rebels

Also, RAF has engaged, and was the longest British air mission since the Falklands

The UN is considering the rebels civilians. Their efforts are solely against the non-rebel military.

(This isn't a rebuttal of your statement, it's a clarification for others.)

Another update from CNN's liveblog about Benghazi:
[9:10 p.m. ET, 3:10 a.m. in Libya] Benghazi remains eerily quiet but tense after a day of fights between Gadhafi supporters and opposition fighters, CNN's Arwa Damon reports.

Anti-Gadhafi forces in Benghazi were buoyed by the international intervention but still expect more to come from Gadhafi.

"This is not yet a victory for them. They expect Gadhafi forces to carry something out again, they do not think this is over," she said. "People do not take Gadhafi's threats lightly. They have learned from four decades of his rule. They expect him to plan some kind of maneuver."

I fear that the Yemenease president may be using Libya as cover to take out the rebellion in Yemen before it begins. I really hope the UN doesn't hesitate to go into Yemen if things turn bad.

I'm hoping that Yemen's president will get overthrown soon.

So let me see if I have this down. Right now, there are some nations trying to liberate Libya from this dude Gaddafi because his government is illegal. Is that right, or am I missing something? Sorry, I've not been in the mood lately for these types of events. They're just annoying.

Like, the Loyalists (From what I understand are with Gaddafi) attacked a hospital? That's not cool man.

Yeah if that's true it's pretty gross. I'm going to check out those Aljazeera links now to get a better idea of what is going on over in Libya.

Yeah those are the ones that I was referring to. However, I was only able to get a hold of their blog via the links in the OP. There's only videos if the blog updates with one. The most recent one I see is the one about the US discussing their role in Libya.
