I've heard some of it here or there.  He's someone a friend and I used to make fun of and wished to see him gone, hell must of been 10 years ago.

Apparently rumors out there that he's planning an escape route.  Two of the jets that were supposed to bomb people fled to Malta instead.

Though for some reason back then we thought his name was Momar Quadaffi.

Lol, if you understood Arabic, you'd crack up at his thoughts on where the term "democracy" originated from.

Yemen - possibly

Bahrain - highly unlikey

Libya - I would love to be an optimist and say "they can do it!" but we're talking about Qaddafi here, that guy is out of his fucking mind and I bet he'd rather slaughter half the country than leave.

Apparently the Libyan air force and navy have planes and ships bombing residential neighborhoods. How coward is that!

Two air force pilots refused to do it and defected, landing at Malta in the mediterranean.

There are also foreign hired mercenaries killing people, as well as some parts of the Libyan army doing the same thing (other parts are siding with the protesters).

In other words, the shit is hitting the fan in a big way, and if no one intervenes there who knows how bad things will get.

Agreed.

Agreed.

Who could step in though?  That's the issue.  Western Nations would likely only make things worse... everyone else in the middle east is busy with their own issues and I'm not sure they'd want to help out the protestors anyway.

OK, so let's say no one steps in. At the very least, foreign nations should do their utmost to stop mercenaries from going to Lybia to help out the genocide. These horrible people getting paid to kill defenseless citizens are coming from somewhere.

Block their airspace for starters, as I saw some article suggesting earlier... Do everything possible at the borders to not let heavily armed groups to go in.

Oh I fully agree.  I'd LIKE someone to step in, I just don't know who.

Yeah, it's really a mess with no easy answer. Unless everything coming out of Libya is false propaganda, the Egypt revolution is going to look like a trip to Disneyland compared to this...

Yeah, it's tough... at best, i imagine there will be a security council condemnation.
