French Military Jets Over Libya

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-12795971

The United Nations decided on Thursday to create a no fly zone over Libya. The French have done what has been seen to be the first act of intervention since the no fly zone. Gadaffi forces are trying to enter Benghazi where the opposition strong hold is located, but the French with their air force is doing all they can to prevent what the president calls " The new UN resolution authorizes "all necessary measures" to stop Gadaffi forces from harming the innocent in Libya. This gave way for other countries including France, United States, United Nations, and other countries to use military action against what the French president calls, "murderous madness" of Col Gaddafi, Mr. Sarkozy said. This gives way for other countries to take actions against rulers who are jeoperdizing international law.

  1. Isn't it about time we start paying more attention to our own back yard?? A 1.4 trillion dollar annual budget deficit, a 14 trillion dollar national debt, a porous southern border with Mexico, a health care bill nobody can understand, and no money to pay the teachers who educate our youth?? Let's stop meddling in the affairs of other sovereign nations, and start focusing on some of our own issues here at home. Winning-duh!
