cynic - 02 Mar 2011 11:48

starting this thread, which i hope will be short-lived, to keep the board up to date with latest reports gleaned from the net

PS.

I was told as a little boy when doing something, to try to avoid using force, but if it was necessary, to used it in cold blood and make it efficient as possible.


Bernard M - 31 Mar 2011 11:51 - 370 of 685

Oh fred, you need a hobby.

Fred1new - 31 Mar 2011 11:54 - 371 of 685

I have one.

It involves bait.

cynic - 31 Mar 2011 12:01 - 372 of 685

fred - a major flaw would be sending in ground forces, as both the libyans and AL have stated loud and clear that that would not be tolerated

on the reasonable assumption that MG will eventually be removed, it will assuredly be a very lumpy journey towards democracy, but "the west" will have to tread very carefully if it is to avoid being shown as manipulating in any way


PS - i am perfectly sure that MG has 20/30/40 lookalikes floating about, so your assassination concept might be somewhat tricky

I'm Spartacus!

Fred1new - 31 Mar 2011 12:34 - 374 of 685

Cynic,

You asked what I would do.

Sometimes, I am known to throw caution to the wind and accept the risks and consequences.

(But, generally, have to have a fall back plan.)
-------------------

Looking at the politics (superficially) many of the AL have been coerced into the coalition decision and have their own internal situations to defend.

If the "coalition" is there on humanitarian grounds, then military actions should be ceased at the earliest opportune movement.

Doing so, will need "ground troops".

American, (British and French? "observers", "liaison officers" and "weaponry" is already being "infiltrated" into Libya.

I think more blood will be shed by delay, than expediting the removal of G.

Wouldn't like to be there.

cynic - 31 Mar 2011 12:45 - 375 of 685

many of the AL have been coerced into the coalition decision ..... reasonable facts to support?

will need "ground troops".... in defiance of AL and libyans strongly stated wishes?

Fred1new - 31 Mar 2011 12:53 - 376 of 685

1) DYOH
2) Wait and see.

Bernard M - 31 Mar 2011 13:09 - 377 of 685

Gadaffe to win even money at betfred bookies.

Soon as he regains some ground the ragtag rebels will flee, sad because bad Gadaffe will slaughter them and their family's after he has won, and the West will do f*** all to help the poor bastards.

NATO taking command does not fill me with hope for the rebels, chocolate wheel springs to mind.

TANKER - 31 Mar 2011 13:37 - 378 of 685

cynic why do the gov call them rebels IF THEY ARE REBELS THEN THE GOV AND UNI ARE HELPING THE WRONG SIDE should they not be called freedom fighters .looking forward to your reply thanks

skinny - 31 Mar 2011 13:40 - 379 of 685

Because they are taking part in a rebellion?

I've never watched one of fahel's videos before, but I had a look at his one.
Anyone attaching any value to the links he posts should look at this one....LOL

By the way, Wyatt Earp was born on March 19 which just goes to PROVE his mother was the mythical Minerva (and his daddy must have been Mars).

Fred1new - 31 Mar 2011 14:14 - 381 of 685

or terrorists.

Depends on the advantage to the supporters.

cynic - 31 Mar 2011 16:47 - 382 of 685

or anything one chooses, so long as it is apparent about whom one is talking

Fred1new - 31 Mar 2011 17:09 - 383 of 685

You and me.

cynic - 31 Mar 2011 18:28 - 384 of 685

you're the terrorist!

Fred1new - 31 Mar 2011 19:03 - 385 of 685

8-)

Many have thought that.

Fred1new - 02 Apr 2011 10:04 - 386 of 685

I see Cameron is no longer urging the coalition in any direction.


What a chaotic mess.

He may realise now the difference between posturing and posing with the complications of military intervention.

He is the ghost of Maggie.

cynic - 02 Apr 2011 10:19 - 387 of 685

make your mind up Fred .... in one breath you berate cameron for taking a leading role, and now you moan that he has apparently taken a step back ...... would your obvious choice of Brown or marxist Milliband have performed better? ...... on second thoughts, you'll have to determine whether or not you can vote for Milliband as he is jewish!

Fred1new - 03 Apr 2011 10:48 - 388 of 685

Cynic.

My point I think Cameron is shallow and and a self publicist. I think his policies are ill thought out and he is making more reverse moves than any politician I can remember. I think he is a disaster for this country and feel he has encouraged Libyans on a course to increased bloodshed.
(I hope I am wrong about the latter.)

I think Brown and Milliband superior to Clegg.Cameron and Osborne.

The last comment is at your usual level of Bullshit.

Eat it.
