When the United Nations passes a resolution calling for protection of civilians in Libya, the first to respond to the call is Colonel Gaddafi.

He calls for a cease-fire, thus trumping any action that may have had some legality under the UN resolution (e.g. no-fly-zone, military invasion) as he is already safe-guarding his citizens.

African Union, Arab League demands have now been met.

All that is left is the naked greed of the European countries that want to get their hands on his oil. Iraq Phase 3.

I see that the British press, which last night were headlining Gaddafi's cease-fire, have done a complete U-turn in less than 12 hours, now saying that the rebels are claiming the cease-fire is being breached, that Cameron is pushing on with war-plans, so on.

And did anyone see the little article a couple of days ago, where Gaddafi's son says that they will release all the papers showing that it was Libyan (i.e. Gaddafi) money that got Sarkozy elected. No wonder the dwarf is screaming for blood. I hear he's wearing Pampers nowadays.

Wait for the next turn of the wheel.

As he is still fighting and about to be attacked for that, maybe he is not all that clever.

He should have waited until next year. No more British planes left by then...........

Gadaffi also said that the protesters were all drug addled lunatics and everybody in his country loves him. Whatever Gadaffi says has the value of approximately zero.

But yeah, it'd all be a bit different if there was oil there

In a similar vein, I have to say I just love this guy, Nigel Farage's YouTube clips.

Nothing new to examine. Invented boogieman of the month club. Scenarios aren't picked-up on commonly, are they? Dumbing down is easy when one doesn't have much to work with.

So far the French-enforced no-fly zone has one casualty, evidently a rebel MiG 23

How might the beloved coalition split-up the occupation time when the times comes....??

It took a while for Mubarak to draw the critisism of the West.

President Ali Abdullah Saleh (of Yemen), who is doing the same sort of thing, shooting people that protest his 32 year grip on power will not quickly become boogieman of the month....he's got the blessing of the US.

Instead of saying "We can not stand by while innocent civilians are killed" as was said about Libya, BO will skirt the issue because they want him to remain in corrupt power, killing his citizens.

When the citizens support al Qaeda - like many do in Yemen - let them get shot.

Ahhhhh, I see.

So when the president of the USA justifies leading the advance to bomb Libya by saying "We can't stand by and let innocent civilian be killed", what he actually meant was "We can let innocent civilians get killed if they don't hold with the same philosophies as us, and no matter if some that DO hold the same ideas but just want to get rid of a corrupt leader get killed in the melee...allowable collateral damage."."????

They've long been on the payroll.....like many throughout contemporary history. It's much to easy for the ruling class - social engineering is easy when you don't have much to work with.
