#1 I was pondering this, especially with the no-fly talks so publically talked than removed with the explanation that it would be too dangerous.

That is, would such a statement actually increase arms purchases by goofballs knowing that all it would take would be a single shoot-down to defeat any UN called no-fly; and then effectively (I know, effective UN) ending any authority of the UN to make such resolutions.

And also with the use of no-fly to actively and specifically target one side or the other, is that particular statement no anything less than an act of ~~war~~ kinetic action?
