I hope NATO doesn’t talk Barry into sending ground troops in at this point. We should have stayed out of this deal and let it play out. At this point we definitly should stay out of it.

To all

The main problem is the NATO nations with the exception of the US, are simply “parade ground” military forces. Meaning they look good for coronations, visiting heads-of-state festivals but not much else. UK, France and Italy's bombing efforts have been so ineffective and inaccurate they are as likely to hit the rebels they support as hit Quadaffi’s forces. If they weren't going to land ground forces and remove Quadaffi that way, they shouldn't have bothered. And everyone knew that wasn't going to happen, the Europeans are way to casualty adverse. All that has happened now is NATO and us have now provided Quaddafi and reason to go back to his terrorist supporting and terrorist operation conducting ways! Libya thanks to the war and Iraq (Quadaffi quote,’ I don't want to end up like Hussein!’) had given up its nuclear weapons program, and was very cooperative in aiding us against Al-Quada and other Jihadi groups.(Remember the Iraq did find and stop a WMD program! It just wasn't in Iraq it was in Libya!) Now that Islamic Terror, Inc has an opening at the top, the Libyan fiasco my have rewritten Quadaffi’s resume so he can apply and be a top applicant!
