Palin was the first national Republican to call for a no-fly zone - LONG before the UN approved a no-fly zone and LONG before Obama committed to a no-fly zone.

Yes, Palin called for a NFZ long before the UN and Obama agreed to it and long before Gaddafi beat back the opposition.

The opposition? You mean the al-Qaeda fighters, right?

"You know Abdel-Hakim al-Hasidi is the rebel commander, how? "

This man is not unknown to European journalist, or to western intelligence agency. He heads a group called the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG) which goes back to the mid-90s. Their ties to al-Qaeda, even before this latest adventure, are well documented. Of course, all this was in the article - and several others from the last several weeks - that you must not have bothered to read.

Incidentally, you might notice that the interview was done with an Italian newspapers. Libya, as I'm sure you are aware, was an Italian colony for much of the 20th Century. Many Libyans speak Italian, and there a cultural connection that continues to exist with parts of Libya and Italy.
