Whether we agree with the way it has occurred or not, the fact is we are at war with Libya, and more specifically with Moamar Gaddafi. So partisanship aside, which I will admit is highly difficult but necessary, let me try to figure out this new Obama Doctrine which has led us to war, and put our military in harm’s way. Why? (more…)
Yeah, Yeah, This thread is less about showing Obama as a fibber, and more about the opportunity to post BIG pictures of my two favorite flying battleships…. But, he is a fibber... (Washington Post) — The U.S. military dramatically stepped up its assault on Libyan government ground forces this weekend, launching its first attacks with AC-130 flying gunships and A-10 attack aircraft (swoon swoon), which are designed to strike enemy ground troops and supply convoys, according to senior U.S. military officials. Their use, during several days of heavy fighting in which the momentum seemed to swing in favor of the rebels, demonstrated how allied military forces have been drawn deeper into the chaotic fight in Libya.

If you have kept up on the political issues with Yemen over the past several years, including the U.S. government position, our support and the recent uprising there, you can quickly connect the dots between these two events within these articles: SANAA, Yemen (AP) —Islamic militants seized control of a weapons factory, a strategic mountain and a nearby town in the southern Yemen province of Abyan Sunday, said a witness and security officials, as a political stalemate in the capital causes security to unravel around the country.

Our Previous analysis was RIGHT !!
Looks like Secretary Gates and President Obama disagree with the “Responsibility to Protect” principle…... (AFP) — President Barack Obama gave a staunch defense of the US role in the international military mission in Libya Saturday, as he comes under pressure to explain US goals to a public exhausted by wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Obama’s weekly radio and online address was his most detailed review of the UN-sanctioned action so far, and comes ahead of an address to the nation Monday on the US strategy in Libya.

h/t PatriotDreamer (CNN) Dr. Abdulmonem Hresha knows first hand how Moammar Gadhafi’s regime works. He says the seeds of his opposition were sown when he was age 10.
