But a half a world away, NATO members voiced confusion and exasperation about who’s in charge of the campaign

They are waiting for Obama to tweet some sort of response from Brazil.

This is great......we have a CIC that doesn’t know what the hell he is doing when it comes to prosecuting a war. Humanitarian assistance my ass. You don’t launch over 120 missles for humanitarian assistance. You don’t tell the world that a dictator has to go and then don’t take him out. You don’t enter a conflict with your allies and then don’t figure out what they are going to do or who is going to take over.

I heard a top of the hour news report that said QDaffy was violating the the NO FLY ZONE by continuing his ground attacks on rebels.

I don’t think he’s attacking with planes. What exactly is it we are telling them? Stop flying? Stop shooting? What?

The two competing factions are France and Italy.

France wants to be in command because it wants operational freedom to hunt down Qaddafi fast, on the ground, dig him out, ugly or not. France has had it with Libya's illegals, wants revenge on Qaddafi for the war in Chad, and wants economic control of the future united Libya because of its oil and uranium deposits in the S of Libya.

Italy wants NATO to run the show, knowing that would bureaucratize and drag out the war and search for Qaddafi. Why? Because that would hasten the partition of Libya with Italy controlling the E half that has the oil & refineries they desperately want to control.

Libya used to be a colony of Italy and they want it back to have a presence on both sides of the Med. The French have much more influence in the W half of Libya via Tunisia and Algeria, but the W half has little oil.

As Obama ignores the Constitution and supports the One World Government destiny he and Susan Powers are crafting for the UN, they have illegally committed US Forces without the involvment of Congress, instead relying on a “P2P” fabricated authority for the UN giving them a power to protect populations that they were never given by their charter.

Its all about establishing a precedent that P2P exists. Once used and then used again, the leftists will claim it was always there and should be there, soverign nations be damned.

This is exactly why we take the lead ... when we have a leader.

A leader: - leads (community organizers go on vacation)

- has a defined objective (you never know what non-leaders really have in mind)

- has a game plan (non-leaders allow others to dictate the game plan)

- has an articulated end game (community organizers change their end game based their voting base)

Guys, this ain't rocket science-

Possible Outcomes:

Qaddafi wins (Most likely outcome): Very bad, comes back with vengeance and purges people in own country, might lash out as in the 80s, will definitely have a more adversarial approach with US particularly but also France, UK etc. *** Most probable: very Bad.

Rebels win (Less likely outcome): Outcome uncertain in so far that we don't just get another strong arm rise to power there who's just as repressive and ruthless as Qaddafi. Possible that a more dangerous leader with a more hostile and ideologically based view rises to power (unlikely). But what is the likelihood that a free democratic pro West open and transparent society comes from this if we already preemptive stated that we will NOT commit ground troops? Very, very unlikely. *** Most probable: bad.

Seriously, what is the scenario in the victory of either side and what is it's likelihood that something good comes of this? So, the question is really if this will be very bad or just bad.

The question is not “who’s in charge” but “who’s to blame.”
