I don't think they could take our planes down.  

But I do like the euro countries  dealing with it instead of the USA.  

And kc, you gotta admit, those same people who ar asking for our help will turn on us the second they get power.

That is a possibility. 
Abandon every hope...

You keep saying NATO should help but you've yet to give a single intelligible reason as to why. It's a people's revolution, which means that outside forces should stay out of it.

You're salivating at the bit because you want to see another dictator deposed in the hopes that your Utopian view of the world will come to fruition.

It's just stunning that Mr. Anti-imperialism is advocating the invasion of another sovereign state to help some Bedouin Libyans, even when polling shows they pretty much universally hate us.

Libya is not our problem and it's not strategically vital to us. We're not the only country in NATO. How about someone else pulls their weight for a change?

But it's not like the Europeans care about the people. They care about the OIL.

The Euro countries can't because they don't have the military capabilities. We are Europe's military these days. Which, to be honest, is complete bullshit given that having us act as their guardian allows them to have little to no defense spending.

The EU has 600 million more people than the US. They should have their own military. Of course, any increase in military spending would pretty much destroy the already bankrupt Euro-zone countries so it'll never happen.

Yeah, my gut reaction was for the USA to stay out of it.  On paper it seems like a good Thing to do, (intervine) but as you eluded to, they'll just hate us the same.  Fuck em.

We need to get out of wars, not into more.

Libya was a peoples revolution, i supported US intervention with NATO.  Not alone.  Nice try to trip me up though.   ;)


Huh?


What do you think was going on in Iraq?  Do you actually know the history?  Do you know who we were protecting with no-fly zones?  Hint:  many of them were rebels or helping the rebellion as well as those caught in the middle. 

The Iraqi people attempted to rise up against that dictatorial douchebag and paid dearly for it.

If you're supporting Libya on the grounds of "people's revolution" then argument against Iraq simply makes no sense.

Well then the no fly zone in Iraq didn't do much?
