Obama Says We Are Not At War in Libya

I guess folks can quibble and play semantics and throw around what "is" is when it comes to it. Let me slow down. I confuse terrorists when my rant hammer swings wildly. A few more mistakes and I can be a politician. But anyway... It's "war" through every definition of the word save political spin. I really don't think there's any way around that. It doesn't have to be long and drawn out and require tens of thousands of troops to be a war. It doesn't have to cross some dollar amount to qualify as war. A president doesn't have to stand in front of a TV camera and declare it to be a war. The US might not be alone in waging it, but it's war nonetheless. That aside, I think they should take that idiot out and wrap things up.

Well, war or even a fight is one which is a near level playing field. With Libya it is like playing soccer where Libya is the goalkeeper, whilst the other side has full team! Lets get real. If we as adults slap a five year old, that is all it is a slap. Not a fight or a war because the child cannot fight back. When a woman is raped, she cannot fight back and is powerless. Libya, as was Iraq, is being raped, pillaged and destroyed in the name of protecting civilians. Gadaffi is no nice guy, he is eccentric. With all the might thrown at Libya, try throwing this at Russia when it flattened Chechneya. Or China for invading Tibet. Why does Britain still hold the Falklands, or even Gibraltor? Refering to rape analogy, we could not pillage any of the developed countries because we would get as much as we got. Jungle warfare and to some extent street warfare is offlimits to Americans as proved by Vietnam and Iraq. And all recent sweeping ground wars which the US has comfortably won have been in the desert against poorly armed opposition. This is not war, but a show at the expense of the civillians caught up in it. Iraq: Tony Blair used to say, 'a million protesters will not match the numbers Saddam will amount to if he remains in power'. Well, Iraq's civilian deaths run into 7 figures since the invasion. Watch Libya unfold, and wait and see what the exit strategy might bu.

To President Truman The UN action in Korea was a Police Action. In Bosnia it was Peace Keeping. Now President Obama tells us we are not at war we are in a "Kinetic Military Action". Just like terrorism is now a Man caused Disaster. There are still some who call it like it is. To the soldiers and pilots it is WAR.

Over 160 missiles shot into the country at over a million bucks a pop and it is just a police action...Hmmm. That is an expensive police action considering we are a bankrupt country. We don't even get but a pittance of oil from Libya. Whats the big deal? The supposed "innocent civilians" that are attacking Qadaffi, are really the same groups of terrorists that trained the bast ards that blew up the NYC Towers and blew the plane out of the air over Scotland. Why are we helping them? This is not about the real civilians...they will just be put under the rule of the islamic brotherhood when all is said and done...From one slave driver to another.

Not at war? We're just dropping bombs then... ... probably because we're getting none in return it makes it a no war [sarcasm] But seriously, what do you call this then? a massacre?
