UN's voting to bomb libya. US France and UK already voted yes, China and Russia haven't voted yet, but unless they veto (probably wont) it'll happen.

Just to clarify, the vote was TECHNICLY to establish a "no fly zone" over libya and allow any actions to protect the citizens from Gaddafi, but really that means a "can bomb zone" and "killing the dictators troops", respectively, and france REALLY REALLY wants to bomb them, so while the vote isn't literally to bomb them it effectively is.

And when the warrior saw the pain and suffering around him, he glanced to the heavens where he saw a shimmering beast, full and regal soaring. It hummed and screamed out in revelation, speaking truth; the warrior fell to his knees, dropped his sword, and wept at the idiocy of war.

Some admiral with a ton of medals just casually discussed how easy it was to ruin Libyan air defense. He has a lot of medals so he has to be right.

Yeah but what's different here is that the UN is the one who wanted to do it and the US kinda had to go along with it instead of vice versa.

But man France really wants to bomb the shit out of Libya.

Post by: GOVG on March 26, 2011, 04:39:19 AM
But if the UN decides to bomb Libya the US will get dragged into war anyways. All the other countries look to us too send a lending hand when it comes to war, and if we don't help we'll risk losing our alliance. Living proof that you're damned if you do and you're damned if you don't. Whatever happened to our neutrality? We played both sides in WWII until the Germans brought us into war (Which was our fault really).
Title: libya's bout to get the shit bombed out of it
Post by: GOVG on March 26, 2011, 02:32:05 PM
America sold weapons to both the British and the Germans during WWII and the Germans didn't like this because we were supporting their enemy. The Gremans pretty much said "Hey, stop sending weapons to the British or we'll attack American ships."

Of course we didn't listen. America continued to send weapons to the British via American cruse ships with concealed weapon crates in them. The Germans knew this so they actually sank our ship and killed a lot of unknowing, innocent people. This shattered out neutrality and we had too go to war.

Quote from: CadillacClock;1813241World history: Americans became arms-dealers during World War II in order to escape the Great Depression. The wealth Americans gained during their neutrality vastly aided them in the war and post-war.
