Iran won’t — Gaddafi has been in power a long time, and has pissed off a lot of people. And Iranian proxies incited the riots that have been going on since about January throughout n Africa and various parts of the Near East. Lebanon — which is run by Iran’s proxy, the Hizbollah — wanted the no-fly zone, and want closure over a (Shiite, need I say it) mullah who disappeared in Libya thirty years ago.
Iran might use the no-fly zone as a good time to start playing its trumps, but I don’t think they’re quite ready. Having the French and US further distracted with the no-fly (and I think it’s obvious it would be the US, primarily) in Libya would open the opportunities Iran has to strike. But as I said, they’re not quite ready yet.

Now the Kuwaiti navy is moving to Bahrain,
just too many places for things to get out
of hand.
