US and British warships have fire 110 Tomahawk cruise missiles into Libya.

RAF and French aircraft are enforcing a no fly zone.

More $$$ spent on blowing up people and stuff and less $$$ going to our kids education

At least this time the US should have limited action. It appears the US will fire Tomahawk missels to knock out emplacements, provide AWAC support, and provide refueling aircraft but no other aircraft or other support.

Everything else should be provided by other members of NATO and the Arab League countries.

Good!!! This time the US doesn't get blamed for everything. The French should lead this attack. Sarkozy will be commander in chief with David Cameron as his second in command. Now we'll get things done!

Don't care who leads it as long as the Brits get their hands on Gaddafi. The justice for Yvonne Fletcher and Pan Am 103 has been to long coming.

Gaddafi also gave the IRA quite a lot of help, IIRC.

He was their biggest source of funding and arms.

Gaddafi will likely jump his country once things start to look hopeless for his regime.

It does seem strange how the money can instantly be found for this.

And this country has been helping the IRA since forever.....

At least Nato got behind this one....you know it must be pretty bad when that happened
