you know at the beginning of this i was watching cnn and they were interviewing some woman in her apartment. she held up a bullet that she claimed was fired at her apartment. however when you look at the bullet...that was never fired. maybe it was tossed on her balcony but not fired. such a scam cnn actually ran with that story.
Was it still in the jacket?
There was a thread on bf2s long ago of a picture from Yahoo.com that showed an Iraqi lady holding up a 7.62 bullet still in the jacket and claiming U.S. soldiers shot it at her house. lol

ffs, put two and two together already, people. there's civil war going on in libya. an armed conflict. two sides are firing at each other, civilians get cought in crossfire. nobody gets off smelling like roses in this shit and anybody reporting it differently either doesn't know what he's talking about or is pushing an agenda. c'mon, it's so obvious i don't even know how there could possibly be anybody not getting it.

if you open your mind too much your brain will fall out.

Which is why Bahrain are getting away with it.

As I said, it's because Gaddafi is a cunt and no one likes him, therefore everyone is happy to back resolutions against him for breaking international law by targeting civilians in this way.

Do you really think of Gaddafi as a friend and ally?
Not a single American on this forum cares about international law or the U.N. Reminding us they are violating international law isn't going to get you anywhere. As much as I've seen that argument come up and get ignored it's amazing anyone bothers trying it...

I don't think he's worth the money or men and I don't think removing him will have any benefit to us.
What money and men?

From what I hear the US aren't providing anything other than AWACs and communications support. European and Arab forces are the ones dealing with this.

It's not like he's alone in it, though... but I do agree. Should've just let the rest of the world deal with it if they felt it was so necessary.

A bit of money. Peanuts in the grand scheme of things. US involvement looks to be very limited and hardly seems necessary. The French, British, Italians, Spanish, Norweigians, Canadians, Danish, Dutch, Belgians and Arabs are perfectly capable without them.

So if the U.S. decided to pull out and demands the U.K. pay them for the missiles and AWAC fuel you would be okay with that?

No, but if they didn't get involved in the first place, I wouldn't care in the slightest.

Asking to be reimbursed for missiles that they chose to fire is another story.

Apart from what the members of his own military and government who have defected have said?

Apart from the fact he's having to hire mercenaries because many of his military personnel can't be relied upon to fire into crowds of civilians?
