Despite making much of the idea that the US would be taking a “supporting role” in the Libyan War as of Sunday, it seems to have taken very little convincing for the Obama Administration to agree to the continuation of its air strikes.
Early Sunday NATO officials started talking up the “request” for the US to launch missiles at Libya, and the Pentagon quickly confirmed that the attacks will continue through at least Monday.
The official explanation is that “bad weather” has hindered the number of US strikes launched over the past few days. Apparently, then, the war is operating on something akin to a flex-time schedule, with the US making up for its lack of blowing things up in recent days with a fresh salvo Monday.
At the same time, despite all of this weather, NATO has been launching scores of strikes on a daily basis over the past several days. There’s no indication what exactly is being hit in these strikes, but it appears the weather hasn’t stopped them.
But perhaps a more important issue is that the two sides appear virtually stalemated now, and it doesn’t seem that air strikes are going to change that. With complaints of civilian deaths in NATO strikes rising, it is perplexing to see the US looking to lob extra missiles at Libya at this point.
No fly? So when and where have ground targets magically "flown" but when they're hit with air to surface weapons. This is such a cock and bull argument being made by liar-in-chief Obama and his posse.
Posse of Trojan Whores……not horses
You got that right buddy!
Foggy Rasmussen, CEO NATO, says emphatically "Ve cannots fly as zee weather makes our aerojets all wets. Zo, ve must dee-fur to zee US for zee airstrikes and zee killing of zee Libyan enemies." Oh YESSAIRE, oh yessaire!

NATO requests US military for this or that? NATO forces are led by an American general. What sense does that make?
NATO is the US, all the rest are fleas on the dog's ass
Civilians being killed from bombs.I thought the point was to save lives.Just another lie to add to the thousands of others that are told to the people by there governments on a daily bases.Like people ever belived that they would spend money to save people that would be dumb.They would rather help the people die to advance whatever there interest is sad but 100 persent true anyone that belives the lies is dumb as dirt.
Isn't that nice how NATO and Washington worked that out?
There are only a few thousand fighters that NATO and the U.S. is backing. The number of people that have a vested interest in continuing the Gadaffi rule exceeds this number many times over. So, how much destruction will NATO be willing to reign down on Libya to depose Gadaffi remains anyone's guess, but you can bet it will be more than what was allocated for Milosovic. The U.S. government now looks like a jackass and is stuck in another war. This is getting interesting. The citizens of NATO governments continually discover more about the duplicity of U.S. foreign policy and the manipulations and disinformation campaigns directed against them. So, it looks like all the tax increases and cuts in spending are now going towards supporting al Qaeda fighters that make up a significant portion of the rebel force. To know that Bin Laden is laughing his ass off
at the U.S. government gives me some satisfaction because there is only one thing I hate for than radical Islamists and that is arrogant militaristic governments that seek to rule the world through corporate control of natural resources.
