Not so clear since they are also talking about arming the rebels and at the
same time firing on the rebels if they attack civilians.

 

We are cops in Libya.  Nothing more.

We had a clear goal.  Stop a slaughter by G in Libya.  But like Iraq, the
rest of the objectives are fuzzy.  Bring Freedom maybe?  But then, I am not
in real support of this current event(though I appreciate the fuller
coalition that came together around this one).
