A future similar incident is US how ground actions will initiate.

Especially when we have a female pilot taken, sitting on qaddafi's lap on a live cnn broadcast with boulf blitzer straighting quadfers robes and telling the bitch to suck it up before going live.

This was likely a technical incident, or will necessarily be related as such.

We need to get out of this particular theater, there is nothing there for us but liability and embarrassment.

do you think the rebels would treat a female pilot any better?

In Iraq female pilots had both arms and legs broken (maybe on ejection) and were repeatedly raped.

I’m not standing up for Obozo (he is in way over his head and could have solved this with minimal air strikes a week ago) but the scenario you paint would almost certainly be solved by some special forces action, which is technically ground action but wouldonly last until they had recovered the prisoner and put her on a helicopter. Jessicea Lynch, only more involved.
