Btw, one of the first responds to this article about the difficulty of establishing a NFZ is a guy with experience w/ NFZs.

"As an aviator veteran of two No-Fly zone operations–DENY FLIGHT and SOUTHERN WATCH– I can only say AMEN to this article. No fly zones are very limited operational tools and not the one-size fits all air power solution that so many politicians with zero military experience (beyond directing that military) so casually throw about in their prescriptions.

Good job Star-baby et al.
