Libyan Civil War Megathread

[Darth Wagtaros]

If the Saudis can intervene in bahrain I think it is only fair that the forces of liberation in Tunisia and Egypt intervene in Libya.

An Egyptian division could end this in two weeks.

The only way it could be better is if the Israelis intervene.

An Israeli battalion then. That would be jewawesome.

[Caliga]

Are you kidding?  Like me, the Israelis are hoping this thing lasts as long as possible.

I wonder if we've gotten to the point that no matter who wins the tribes that backed the losers will be butchered.

We got to that point on day 1.

As in day 1 of walking upright.

I know I'm probably missing something, but if the Arab League is so much in favor of a no-fly zone, what is stopping them from pooling some jet fighters from member nations, basing them in western Egypt, and doing the no-fly zone thing themselves?

Cowardice?

[Caliga]

They need to be ever-vigilant of the JOOOOOOOS stabbing them in the back.

[Mr.Penguin]

Well, at least there is some Italian SP guns in the western dessert again, now we only need some German panzers...

[citizen k]

Yep, I think that just about wraps it up for the opposition. Many are voting with their feet and fleeing to Egypt.

[Admiral Yi]

The next meeting of the Arab League should be interesting.

Because it is easier if big daddy does all the work and they can bitch if Big Daddy stays asleep on the couch. Win-Win.

[Darth Wagtaros]

Yes.  Complain about American non-involvement on one hand while bitching about how they won't stand for American involvement on the other.  Didn't Gadaffi leave the league because of that useless petty crap?
