| Qatar becomes 1st Arab country to fly over Libya |
| 2011-03-25 |
| Tiny Qatar became the first Arab country to fly combat missions over Libya on Friday after NATO agreed to take command of the no-fly zone part of air operations against Moammar Gadhafi's regime. French and British jets struck Libyan military targets around a besieged eastern city, as talks in the Ethiopian capital to find a way out of the crisis produced a statement from the Libyan government delegation saying his country was ready to talk with rebels and accept political reform, possibly including elections.

| #2 Joseph, if possible, thats the best scenario. If we could get them to police their own, it really would serve as a strategy - and a self empowering one at that for them. They want to be treated as adults, than let them have nation states that do not require and are not asking for our assistance. I know, I know the snark stuff and it will never work crap but at least it is a strategy if nothing else. |

| #1 Methinks the USA = Washington Dc want Muslim Powers to start becom more directly involved in UN-sanctioned Milactions = "Police Actions" that occur in Muslim Regions, as opposed to their tradition of completely being un-involved, or else PCorrectly deferring to the US-NATO/West to lead a Coalition = UN Command??? |
