Libyan rebels turning on NATO?

I heard reports that rebels were upset at the NATO forces, that they weren't doing enough. One complaint was that it took up to 6 hours for air strikes to hit after being requested. Even though I'm pretty sure there are green berets helping out, 6 hours is still pretty good for a non-integrated system!

NATO doesn't have to be there, they are helping these guys out. This is their fight that they would have been destroyed, and the survivors executed, if NATO hadn't stepped up to start with. NATO (in particular, the US), does not need to be occupying another mid east country. Ground forces are a bad bad idea. They need to win this fight on their own, with as much help as we can offer them, without commit overt ground forces.

With continued training and assistance from the in-country green berets forces, these rebels should turn into a fairly decent fighting force. With the help of the NATO air forces of course.
