bpwallace49 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 I sincerely hope that we do NOT get involved in any ground operations and stick to supporting other NATO actions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebellab Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Will we ever see Allied/US troops on the ground or just air strikes? The good news is there is we are not the only ones this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seahawks21 Posted March 19, 2011 Share Posted March 19, 2011 Obama has seemed very reluctant from the outset to get involved, hoping the rebels could overwhelm the military, causing this to take care of itself. There won't be any need for troops on the ground. Just a handful of well placed tactical aerial attacks to even the playing field a bit, and some medical supplies and possibly a few weapons, and the rebels take over pretty easily. The No Fly Zone in itself might be enough, but just a little help could end this thing really quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope yer right American forces launch cruise missiles on Libya's air defenses, clearing the way for European and other planes to enforce a no-fly zone to ground Qaddafi's air force and cripple his ability to inflict further violence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEC=UGA Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 (edited) Great, Obama helping Al Queda terrorists take over a country with the backing of 10 members of the UN Security Council. This should end well... ETA: I wonder if his daddy had something against Libyans? Edited March 21, 2011 by SEC=UGA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ursa Majoris Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Arab League - "Yes, you need to do this to protect the people because all that hardware we've bought from you isn't enough for us to do it ourselves plus we're a bunch of useless lazy turds" Arab League - "You've gone too far, someone got killed wah wah wah" F 'em all, let them stew in their own juice.

Perchoutofwater Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Will we ever see Allied/US troops on the ground or just air strikes? The good news is there is we are not the only ones this time. We had plenty of support in the beginning of Iraq and Afghanistan as well. The problem is the longer things take the less support there is both internationally as well as here at home. Arab League - "Yes, you need to do this to protect the people because all that hardware we've bought from you isn't enough for us to do it ourselves plus we're a bunch of useless lazy turds" Arab League - "You've gone too far, someone got killed wah wah wah" F 'em all, let them stew in their own juice. I agree as well. I don't understand why it took so long for this decision to be made, but I think it is the right decision given the circumstances.

Ursa Majoris Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 What's wrong, Charlie Brown? I just don't think we should have got involved in this. We had plenty of support in the beginning of Iraq and Afghanistan as well. The problem is the longer things take the less support there is both internationally as well as here at home. I agree as well. I don't understand why it took so long for this decision to be made, but I think it is the right decision given the circumstances. I disagree about the Iraq support. Other than the UK and a bunch of bit players hoping for US handouts, it was pretty much non-existent. And IMO it's the wrong decision. Why can't the Saudis and the rest of the oil bastards do this? How come the Great Satan and the little European Satans have to do it? Are the Saudis at least going to fork over the cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Like Soup Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Why doesn't the UN go it alone once in a while without the US leading the charge and getting the added benefit of us looking like the ahole aggressors? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeeR Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 F 'em all, let them stew in their own juice. We may not agree often but to that. I have been so sick of us sticking our nose where it doesn't belong for so long it's beyond belief. I think Obama might have broken the record for cruise missile strikes by a Nobel Peace Price winner. lol And frankly if this were Bush I guarantee the hard-core liberal anti-Bushies would be all over mr war monger all about oil blah blah blah. fn stupid. Just like Bush's massive buildup and thinking he could install democracy in the Middle East was stupid. These loons are determined to kick the f outta each other, as they have been since the beginning of time. For us to try and stop it only gets our guys killed and them pissed at us.

We can't go back and see what the coalition would have been without the WMD threat, but I'm thinking it would be a lot less. This latest action was taken to prevent Gadhafi from brutally wiping out a portion of the Libyan population which I think many agree that it is what Gadhafi had not only promised but had begun to carry out.
