Libya

ROFL.

Get your facts first, then evaluate, then assume, then speculate, then post. The normal sequence, please...

Why is it that there's always someone who think a conflict is going to result in WWIII :hide:
 
Ppl that havent been trained in a military situation evaluation sequence, many of them (young, mostly) civvies.

This said, the mission is not clear from my POV (and AFAIK has not been stated officially), one possible path to disaster even in a friendly forces favouring environment (Murphy always has been and will be our friend).

Can UN (or France?) please define the mission in Lybia?

The mission is clearer than the strategy, and that strategy can’t be figured out from the first moves. The strategy might be the imposition of a no-fly zone, the imposition of a no-fly zone and attacks against Libya’s command-and-control centers, or these two plus direct ground attacks on Gadhafi’s forces. These could also be combined with an invasion and occupation of Libya. ​

The question, therefore, is not the mission but the strategy to be pursued. How far is the coalition, or at least some of its members, prepared to go to effect regime change and manage the consequences following regime change? How many resources are they prepared to provide and how long are they prepared to fight? It should be remembered that in Iraq and Afghanistan the occupation became the heart of the war, and regime change was merely the opening act. It is possible that the coalition partners haven’t decided on the strategy yet, or may not be in agreement.​
 
Open a thread and then no more posting about that. I saw 3 threads of this Indian friend about Libya and all of them are the same. Is it trolling or being a rookie ? Woo hoo we want to see more from you :)
