Lets not forget we are a member of NATO, and while I find it hard to believe there was absolutely nothing we could do what about our allies? Are the rats claiming all of NATO (including the USA) could do nothing?

Gates who was SoD under Bush and Obama said he would not send fighter aircraft either since lots of anti-air weapons are present. Didn't we send aircraft before? When those weapons were in the hands of the people we were fighting? But now there presents denies us air cover? How effective is a shoulder fired missile against an F16?

I heard that this morning and could not believe my ears. Again. All the money he has bled from the federal budget in his time for the military and NOW he tells us we can’t fly an F-16 through LIBYAN anti-air????

Where did the money go?
