#2 I suspect there is more going on behind the scenes that we may learn about later.

#4 I have not heard of any public statements, just went in and did it? 5 Times.

It would seem a bit of a waste of potential to fly those birds in with only troops.

#5 Maybe some are infiltrating towards Tripoli to help out, but I suspect there won't be much action. Gadaffy has his hands full and has pulled his troops back to Tripoli. I doubt there is much in the way of pro-Gadaffy forces out where these guys are landing.

#6 OTOH WAFF [old] > BRITISH FORCES WOULD STRUGGLE TO MOUNT SMALL MILITARY INTERVENTION, CLAIM OFFICERS. This week's LIBYA-style mil-led rescues may become more remote = unlikely as military manpower + military equipment is steadily reduced or phased out out of service due to Govt-ordered MoD Budget Cuts.

Again, the US-NATO believe that ALL-OUT, "TOTAL WARS" AS BETWEEN MAJOR WORLD POWERS IS OBSOLETE, OR IN THE ALTERN ARE NOT LIKELY TO OCCUR FOR A VERY VERY LONG TIME TO COME.

VARIOUS POSTERS = opine that the COLD WAR = WORLD'S MOST POWERFUL ARMED FORCES iS BEING STEADILY CONVERTED INTO REGIONAL, GLOBAL "PEACE CORPS/PEACEKEEPING" SECURITY SERVICES [OWG = UNO Police, Humanitarian Actions].
