SAM Missilesā¦ IN THE SKY
Good story today about the missile attack on Gadaffiās compound that definitely wasnāt meant to kill him.
I was thinking there, the US, UK and French are all very obligingly, out of the goodness of their hearts assisting the rebels in over-throwing the tyrant Gadaffi. Their main assistance being to destroy the military equipment being used by the Gadaffi regime. When the rebels eventually take over control of the country, they will need to rebuild the entire army and defence systems. What countries would they go to to buy those I wonder?
US plane after crashlanding in Libyaā¦
A ātechnical problemā no doubt. Those technical problems are a nightmare.
By george you could be on to something there.
Have you got Noam Chomskyās number? Heās always interested in stuff like this.
These rebels are making no attempts at advancing on Tripoli, iād say they are hoping NATO, US etc will do all the work for them.
I donāt think theyāre able to. Thereās plenty of talk about them but they donāt actually appear to be winning any battles.
So where does this end?
The yanks canāt beat Gaddaffi from the air alone, and the rebels are too inept/ill equipped/untrained to beat him on the ground.
Prolonged civil war most likely
The rebels seem to be on the march in Lybia.
In other news, I reitirate my congratulations to the Egyptian people on facilitating a military coup.
They were already ruled by the military.
Gadaffi has the rebels on the run
I see the rebels that the Americans are backing and arming have very strong ties to al-Qaeda :o
I was reading a breakdown of the costs incurred by the MOD in relation to the air strikes in Lybia. Itās phenomenal.
Those fighter jets cost something like Ā£30,000 for every hour they are in the air, the missiles they were launching cost 100k each, and the cruise missiles the yanks were launching cost around $500k each!
Great article by Robert Fisk on the Arab revolts. He gives Obama quite a kicking in it.
Obama paid for his own pint in Moneygall. Fisk is a renowned moocher. I know who Iād believe.
Ya, tight Tipp/Offaly cunts are the only ones in the world whoād be too mean to by the president of the USA a pint.
Whatās worse is they didnāt even give him change from a ā¬50 note.
Wonderful article by Fisk.
