World Police
Creating a “No Fly Zone”. Am I the only person who does not understand this term, or how it has been applied in Libya. Creating a “No Fly Zone” I thought should mean that certain planes are not allowed to fly in Libya. But once again the UK government are bending the agreed rules and this means that they can take out ground troops as and when they feel like it. This war is also not a Regime change, or is it? The more things go on the more this is getting like Iraq, bend those rules, get what you want, as collateral damage mounts. This coalition government is going to be as unpopular as Blaire’s government was over Iraq. We cannot afford to be the world’s policeman and are we now going into Syria and possibly other countries? It would be nice to cure every little piece of unfairness in this world but it is totally impractical.

UK forces have permission to enforce a no-fly zone over Libya and the UN has also backed “all necessary measures”, short of an invasion, to protect civilians.
