GMC, the only thing they're backing is oil and money. It is quite a predicament, we have been inflicting peace and democracy on our enemies for quite some time. Maybe we were on the wrong side?
What I can't wait to see is who's going to be the one to give a BJ to Qadaffi and his sons to get back in their good graces. Qadaffi will truly be insufferable when this is over.:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl I think this is going to be like a Brazilian soft porn soap opera.

Well the fight in Libya is almost over, the rebels are fading into the woodwork or heading to the Egyptian border. From what I gather the only city still under rebel control is Benghazi. We would have to invade now and that's a lot harder than a NFZ.

I don't think so. Cheap gas for the suburban assault vehicle = no problem.
