Could we see an intervention by the Egyptian army too? They aren't too fond of Qaddafi and their superiority could allow them to overrun any opposition without significant casualties.

I have the same question. Some people probably try to rationalize their knee-jerk reaction to any kind of military intervention.

Two things that bother me about the army.  It didn't mutiny, get killed, captured, or surrendered.  It is still out there someplace.  It didn't leave its weapons behind.


So they followed the "JJ after the 2008 election" strategy.

No, since that strategy was let the victor act and destroy himself.  

ORLY? Because from here it looked like "I'm so embarrassed that I'll do a disappearing act and hope that after some months most people will forget the bullsh**t I propagated during the entire election season".

Sabha has fallen. Bani Walid and Sirte are the last remaining Gaddafi holdouts.

Will you be attending the victory parade?

If the price (of gold) is right.

He's in Tripoli, looking for the victory parade; no one told him it was in Sirte.

Apropos, has anyone checked the price of gold?

I, naturally, am happy to see another tyrant fall. I regret that it was so bloody, but with Gaddafi's regime being what it was there was never any chance of it being otherwise...

I'm also filled with a warm gleeful feeling thinking of how upset Gaddafi's international buddies are - the thought of Fidel Castro, Hugo Chavez, Daniel Ortega, Evo Morales, Rafael Correa, and Robert Mugabe screaming over this makes me smile. Smiley

I wonder what the Shinners think of this? Tongue


Ortega, Morales and Correa were elected democratically, so your attempt to tie them with Gaddhafi and Mugabe is a fail of epic proportions.

Are you really this goddamned stupid? I was referring to all those leaders who backed Gaddafi during the Libyan Civil War, you f***tard! Have you paid no attention to the international aspect of this? Do some basic research, boy, before you accuse me of an epic fail.
