Libyan No-Fly Zone res. passed by UN

[haegemon]

The fight if there's any at all will be short. The tedious part will be patrolling the skys. At the moment what is confirmed is the next:

US = IN - Carrier fleet
UK = IN - planes, ¿fleet?
France = IN - planes
Canada = IN - planes
Italy = IN - airbases, ¿planes?
United Arab Emirates = IN - planes
Qtar = IN - planes

Germany = OUT
Egypt = OUT (instead is shipping weapons to the rebel army)

Just my thoughts let the war drums beat yet again.

The Spanish civil war also was inside sovereign borders however there were on the battlefield: with the fascist side german troops, german and italian fighters and bombers, and with the other side russian planes and operatives, and what was called international brigades (US, UK, French...volunteers).

So...nope, sovereignity is relative as always has been.
