A war of words has erupted between the U.S. and Britain after the U.K. government claimed Muammar Gaddafi is a legitimate target for assassination. U.K. government officials said killing the Libyan leader would be legal if it prevented civilian deaths as laid out in a U.N. resolution. But U.S. defence secretary Robert Gates hit back at the suggestion, saying it would be 'unwise' to target the Libyan leader and that the bombing campaign should stick to the 'U.N. mandate'. The infighting comes as a heated meeting of NATO ambassadors yesterday failed to resolve whether the 28-nation alliance should run the operation to enforce a U.N.-mandated no-fly zone, diplomats said.

This is unbelievable.

This is what happens when you have a president that phones it in.

I am in charge.”


Obama's Two Degrees of Separation … Gaddafi
"It was no accident that terrorist President Gaddafi
of Libya referred incessantly to Obama as his son"

"Obama's ties to Libya, Gaddafi, conspiracy exposed,
Gaddafi financed Farrakhan, Nation of Islam....
the truth about why Obama’s was silent for so long
about the unrest in Libya, (especially in comparison to Egypt)
and his kid-glove treatment of Gaddafi is exposed. "


"Connecting the dots of Obama’s actions "


"..why President Obama has been mum on the subject of Libya
Obama's spiritual leader, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, has been tied to Gaddafi. "

Funny, when W was President, the “who’s in charge?” question just wasn’t asked.

Seeing the fact that all acts taken so far are illegal per the war powers act, I would say the general is wise to keep his rear out of a war crimes trial.

Kadafy is the supreme commander in Libya. He is thus a legitimate target. But the hell of it is, we should not be in Libya at all. I truly think that this is Obama’s “Wag the Dog.” If it is not Wag the Dog, the man is a fool or worse.

Kill Daffy, then get oput and let those people sort this mess out themselves.

By the way Obama isn’t about to spoil his vacation over a little thing like a war.

When he gets back he has to get ready to go to Ireland for another vacation.

When the British and the French get on a team, you know there is going to be squabbling and dischord. A sure recipe for confusion.

Whoever is in charge, they drove oil prices up. Way to go.

Norway is holding their fighters on the ground in Malta until the question of “who the hell is in charge here?” is made clear.
