Libya is in military terms, a pissant weak little country, and fighting Gaddafi’s forces won’t be that much of a challenge. NK on the other hand, is a nuclear armed nation with an army of a size that probably matches or exceeds the size of Libya’s entire population.

Even noble actions and intentions must be tempered with pragmatism...

I was trying to be facetious — it was all tongue-in-cheek.

What pragmatism are you talking about? This whole Libyan action is so hypocritical. Does it really need for superpowers and the Arab League to jump on this backward nation with both feet?

How is little Libya going to defend itself in the future if all its military capabilities are destroyed? Let the Arab League do the bombing (if they can).

What will the alternative be in the future? If Daffy is replaced by a bigger a-hole, are we going to jump on it again?
