That depends on what your definition of justice is. If it is launching a war against Libya based on unsubstantiated reports of civilian 'massacres' while it is in the process of fighting an internal civil war, then I guess it is just.
Edit: This is nothing short of a declaration of war, plain and simple.

I would call it suppresion of the right of people to show their anger of the regime. The moment ghadafi started using military and hirelings to kill demostrating people he commited a crime against humanity. Hardly a civil war of one side has the army and starts bombing citys

Yep, US started to burn some money. Around half a million per missile.

Well we saved a couple million as some came from a UK Submarine.

Probably costs a hundred times that for a plane and a pilot. And a civilian is worth around 8 million dollars over his lifetime.

Well, in the United States. Not sure how much a Libyan is worth in terms of economic worth.

Please read the reports from day 1 (17th February).
Thank you.

If we call reports by agents of Reuters, FPA, Al-Jazeera and various media "unsubstantiated"... then I guess we don't know much about the world in the end.

These missiles are launched from a cruiser or submarine, so no need for a plane and a pilot. "Cruise missile" as they are called.


e. or did i understand your post right. dunno ^_^

General Cortney seems pretty tight-lipped about anything that doesn't involve "critical nodes." I don't who he's trying to fool with not discussing "future operations;" we all know the attacks are going to continue next week.
We avoid risks in life to arrive safely at death.

From Denmark: Parliament had unanimous consent to send planes and troops to aid the UN's mission in Lybia. Unanimity has never before occurred when dealing with military questions in Denmark, but the government made promises regarding Lybian sovereignty and oil reserves that made the far left wing support it.
Total force deployed is 6 F-16 fighters, 1 military transport aircraft and a crew for each, 7 in total. If the conflict escalates into a ground war it is very likely that more troops will be committed, especially seeing as the sitting NATO Sec.Gen. is a former Danish PM, who is still popular in Denmark.
Usually military action by Denmark is met with calls to protest, but everything is quiet. A wide majority of the population seems to support the action taken. Calls to 'party for democracy' - throwing street parties in front of the embassies of middle-eastern dictatorships - are widely circulating however.

A military intervention I support - didn't think I'd live to see the day.

Also, thanks to {CC}StealthBlue: I don't now how many conflict/political threads you've been doing live updating for, but I really appreciate it.
Trying is the first step towards failure, and hope is the first step towards disappointment!

Err...what in my post are you replying to? We're on completely different tangents, I think.

I'm saying that we're burning a lot of money on cruise missiles to make sure we don't lose even more money on pilots. And that civilian lives are also worth a lot.
