It's not a fucking war. Can we not just stick to facts instead of hysterical hyperbole?
I'm sorry but when you send cruise missiles and fighter jets into a country and choose sides, you are in a war. We can disagree on this without cussing each other out.
It is not a war. It is a UN sanctioned intervention... specifically to stop Gaddafi from bombing the crap out of his own people. That is not war... it is intervention. There is no way to implement a 'no fly zone' (as authorized by the UN) without taking out the structures that Gadaffi needs to either:
a. strike at the UN forces
b. strike at his own people
This is not rocket science, it is rational thought.
The Korean War was a UN sanctioned intervention. The two terms, war and intervention, are not mutually exclusive.
So again, why is this not a war? There's an armed rebellion in Libya. Is that not a war?
