1. The regime changing game again

Why can't this leave to the Libyan people instead of the military interfering from the foreigners?

Is it that because they are weak, it can be bullied by the major powers of this earth?

What international law? all out of window now

2. K&R- Good that this is a NATO/UN action and not US only. This should have been done decades ago...nt

3. ADM Mullen is Navy

unlike the head line that say U. S Army Chief. Does anyone fact check articles anymore?

7. Army is (can be) used as 'collective' name:' a container

In the content of the article you can read that he is admiral. Admiral = is navy; isn't it?

The Army is one of seven federal uniformed services.

10. but wiki doesn't give all the answers. Going dutch: army ; Navy is a specialised group of the army.

I like salt, but not on every word :)

13. As a retired swabbie don't call me a soldier

no sailor will like that, as a soldier none would like to be called a swabbie and never ever call a Marine either of the above.

4. I hope Muammar's future

includes a Tomahawk missile up his ass.

6. And I hope you are foolish enough to be jetting around the Mideast.

5. Mullen = high functioning sociopath (like Boehner and Coulter)

[chill_wind]

9. US army chief? Shouldn't we be giving France or Britain the megaphone

because we're just - you know-- barely involved allies and backup players signed onto this UN resolution?
