Libya

[asmn]

UK can not afford the side and watch for what happens in Libya

[Shady]

why cant we? ~~~~ libya, wtf has it got to do with us if they want to kill each other?

[smirnoff_rules]

straight to the point

if we like it all not, they are all mad over there in the Arab states

[asmn]

shadyback This actually you're right

[Shady]

shadyback This actually you're right

of course i am.. stick around and you'll get used to it

[flyingpig]

Shadyback - it was harsh - but dead right!

[Shady]

ok then no probs.. oh wait.. i signed something so I'm not about to loose my pension rights on here

can you pm me then?
sorry mate, had to say it ;

[xant14]

you need to check mate, no invasion has taken place.. there are no boots on the ground..

The Arab league and UN have called for a no fly zone..

Would you want to fly about policing that when there are Ground Based Air Defense active..?

Or do you think its a good idea to neutralise any potential threats first ???

~~~~ing no fly zone!!! err, what part of a no fly zone is throwing tomahawks at Gaddaffis palace?

[cbk]

Goddaffi should pretend he is a Jew that way he wont get bomb.

Israeil manages to bomb shit out of everyone, bulldoze houses, capture boats, kill whoever they like break UN resolution, starve the palestinians now't said to them.

As the topic says, let?s stick with Libya issues only.

[steppenwolf]

As the latest news says the rebels are killing opponents of their own people, I mean the civilians. Who is not with them, they are against them. Not just Gadaffi supporters but also those who just want to stay out. And now, it seems a very tough job to learn that people democracy and meaning of human rights. Looks like the revolution will collapse inside.

By the way, if Gadaffi is expelled I am afraid who will replace him as better. For West it could only be some marionette. Let`s not forget that 30% of the people in south Libya are still tribes with chief as leader. They don't care about Gadaffi, revolution, politics or anyone else. Would you pick some of them as the next president of Libya? Hursh...

[xant14]

exactly, Gadaffi aint playing ball with the west, so they think they can send someone in who will.. but if they do as good a job as they did with Iraq.. then we gonna have another ~~~~ed up country that no one can manage... At least Gadaffi is able to control it.. As Saddam was...
Look at the ~~~~ed up state of Iraq now... and did it stop the threat of terrorism? a ten fold increase I would say.

Not only that.. I used to enjoy travelling about, now it is unsafe as we are tarred with the same brush as Obama and Cameron.

[steppenwolf]

That is right Xant. I think NATO actions are just to make a support for rebels. It is not the fact, but my feeling says that the intelligence service have done their job to provoke rebels for revolution. They are well armed and dangerous. The only goal is to get people in charge of Libya that will obey to them.

It is 21th century. There is no more occupying new lands with just bombing and invasion. The best way to occupy is to make them kill each other. That is a modern war politics as it happened in Iraq, Yugoslavia(Croatia, Bosnia), Serbia(Kosovo)... and now in Libya.

agree with shady we stick our neck into to many problems let these countries run themselves it has nothing to do with us same as iraq bosnia wherever

we have to jump in on everything that has nothing to do with us


why did we wait until now to sort gaddaffi out same with saddam we cosy up one week the next they must be destroyed

airstrikes will cost innocent lives and are inefective to establish control you need to send in troops you cant do all thats needed from 10,000 feet

it could rumble on for ages makes you wonder how a country so skint and demanding so many cuts in budget feels like it can go to war on a country that is of no harm to us

sorry not a war a "no fly zone" put it this way if gaddafi was bombing us i think we would see it as a war yes we are going for targets as did germany in world war II

we are ruled as a country by a few men in suits only they know the real reasons behind such things the army,the raf and the navy are just pawns in a game of chess and if you think any different you are deluded

we have no business in the issues of any other country unless they are a direct threat to ourselves and i cant even think of a single genuine reason why we feel the need to join in bullying other countries with our chums accross the pond

the only 1 reason which has been said is oil but surely that is not why we are there? surely it must be just to help them poor libyans that cameron and obama feel so sorry for

Absolutely well said on all points..
Reason they aren't sending foot soldiers in is because they will lose the sympathy vote from the gullible sun readers when the body bags start coming home.

Cameron, the man just out of nappies with no charisma, wants to have a war, because in the past it has made leaders look like hero's... pre- wiki leak eras where truth was harder to obtain that is.

?2 million a day for this shite... dunno why Cameron didn't just suck Gaddaffis cock like they do the Saudi Sheiks, Woulda left a better taste in his mouth than this 'War' is gonna.
