Interesting reading.

indeed, very interesting. Gaddafi will not go on his own. He will fight to the end and it now looks like we may see a prolonged civil war in Lybia.

Interesting the see the Cameron-Gates two step. No doubt the UK proposal was to basically have the US do all the heavy lifting with a nominal UK presence, something which has zero support in the White House or Congress.

The only way you will see military intervention in Lybia will be if the Europeans actually do something for a change, instead of just asking other countries to send their sons to die in combat.
