They'd have to get things through the security council to do anything more, wouldn't they? I don't see that happening anytime soon.

I know I'm being ridiculous but I would love it some 5th Fleet commander went rogue and drove a triage boat straight the gently caress in there to take on casualties.

I'm bowled over by what's going on in Libya right now.

I'm finding nothing from official sources but Twitter is on fire with reports of "Benghazi has fallen", "east Libya is free!", "army has joined the people", etc.

"The inappropriate use of telecommunications services contradicts our religion ... our customs ... and our traditions," said a text from the General Communications Body.


Yes, the shame those protesters should feel for all that inappropriate texting and tweeting.
