No War for France’s oil
No War to save Muslims from each other.

Not mine. Kadaffy Duck killing Muslims so we don't have to is working for me.

The opposition is an Al Quida front.

If we’re going to jump in, just make sure we at least kill Qadaffy to settle the score for the PanAm bombing.

Stay out of it for once.
There is no upside for the USA either way.
On one side you have militant Islamists.
On the other side you have militant Islamists.
They are now killing each other.
When they are killing each other they are not killing non-muslims.
Why interfere?
If Gadhafi prevails he will still hate our guts.
If the revolutionists prevail, with or without our help, they will hate our guts.
I am tired of American patriots dying for no good reason.
If the politicians want to have a war to make themselves look good in the UN, let them go fight it.

Here’s one vote against it. Why do we want to stick our noses in yet another civil war?

Maybe if we supported the subhuman muhammadans jihadi "rebels" fighting the subhuman muhammadan Khadafi with the understanding that they will supply the USA with $50 a barrel oil for the next 50 years, then helping them might make sense.
But we all know thats not going to happen.

On one side you have militant Islamists. On the other side you have militant Islamists. They are now killing each other. When they are killing each other they are not killing non-muslims. Why interfere?EXACTLY!
Whoever wins will repair the production and shipment infrastructure and sell the oil, which will help bring down oil prices worldwide, and we benefit by getting out of the way and letting them have it out.
On one hand we can back the backer of PanAm 103 bombing, on the other the Muslim Brotherhood, with ties to Hamas, Hizbollah, and AlQaida.
I flipped a coin and it landed on edge.
Not our fight.

Surgical airstrikes against terrorist training camps in Mexico would make more sense.

Muslims decreasing muslims has my support.

Will US combat operations in Libya have the support of the public? It all depends on what position Lady Gaga takes on the issue.

Let Qaddafi beat them down until they’re willing to give us access to their govt and oil fields. Then kill Qadaffi and anyone loyal to him or opposed to us. Then move in Haliburton and start “developing” those oil fields. If that can’t happen, let them kill each other and enjoy the show.

I’ve got a better idea.
Ironically enough, the Jews sit on THE ONLY LAND IN THE MIDDLE EAST NOT BLEEDING OIL.
Kill’em all..Move the UN to the Holy Land (see how long they tolerate that B.S. when they’re more worried about exploding jihadis than Manhattan parking laws) And give the Jews Libya.

We have no business getting involved in an internal conflict. Both sides hate us... I will Never support this action. Our Military is not a political tool for obama to play with.

What is the goal and how do we know when we achieve it?

Unless we plan on invading the stinking place, taking over the country as an American protectorate, paying for the entire operation with the proceeds from Libyan oil, and using up the rest of the oil ourselves... the answer is "NO"!
I'm getting sick and tired of us being the UN's little on-call mercenary army and azz kisser.
To rephrase Bismark,... "Libya is not worth the bones of a single American airman!"

Only if they're clearly successful. Chances are they'll be too little, too late.
But, of course, we support our troops! even as we crap all over the mission.....
