Rebels were shown in armored vehicles since day one. Of course, they should have painted some really obvious identifiers on them, kinda like the guys who paint “COW” in orange spraypaint on their cows during deer season...
NATO = Not alert thinking organized
I’d have trouble calling it friendly fire since I suspect the so called “rebels” are just more mohamamadmen doing their usual
post Friday prayer killing. Either way...friendly fire isn’t.
The Brits are probably lacking SNIPR pods, the ones that make ground features very clear even for zoomies at 15,000 feet.
These are just ordinary, downtrodden women and children with tanks, yearning for their freedom. Nothing to see here. We have a second amendment ourselves.
“NATO jets attacked a rebel convoy between these two towns Thursday, killing at least five fighters and destroying or damaging a number of armored vehicles.”
Accidentally?
This is a dogs breakfast by any standard. Thank you Obama the un-leader.
Don’t feel bad.
Our State Dept. had no idea the Muslim Brotherhood might take over Egypt.
Well at least we don’t have to worry about Sadr causing us any trouble in Iraq.
I feel safe knowing we have smart people running this administration.
Maybe Gadhafi will let the rebels capture more tanks so NATO will destroy the rebels for him?
NATO seems to be incompetent to their present task so to speak?
So much for intelligence gathering capabilities of NATO. Real first class organization.
Hey i didn’t know that most Vietnamese wore black pajamas either. ;>)
ya and they said, they would paint the tops of their vehicles pink so NATO would be able to distinguish between them and Libyan regulars... duh... now everybody will have pink hoods.
I suppose they didn’t know that the “rebels” were AlQaeda either...
Do they know they have Terrorists?
lol.
Our intelligence is that good??
The Benghazi rebels were reported to have taken tanks from captured army bases weeks ago.
It may also be posible the job was not “botched”. Could it be some people in the military see things a little differently than Obama? Just wondering.
I knew. I saw it on Fox News
The rebels were shown on TV riding a tank and shooting into the air since nearly day 1
Has anyone told NATO about turkeys not being able to fly, yet?
Cannot be!
Obama and the other administration enablers of militant Islam assure us that the rebels are just freedom loving students, distraught housewives and frustrated shop owners, fighting a brutal regime armed with nothing more than #2 pencils, cooking pots and straw brooms.
