Those rebels are extremists and believed to be supported by Al Qaeda.

Key words, "believed to be". Would you agree we need more intel?

Qadaffi is a KNOWN terrorist. Why keep a known terrorist who has done terrorist acts against Americans all over the world if you're going to start a military action anyway?

Are you actually arguing that we should support Qadaffi over the rebels, without any real intel as to who they are?

I would agree that we needed more intel before we started doing sorties for people we had not yet positively identified as friend or foe and is believed to be Al Qaeda.

Yes would agree most definitely

No, I'm actually arguing that we not do sorties for those suspected of being supported by Al Qaeda before we know who they really are.
