Even if they do this no fly zone, its not like its going to be up over night,

The American's are going to have to stage air craft and munitions to the Middle East and North Africa, as are the British. I don't know if the French have much there anyways.

Its interesting to note that the U.S. Navy won't be involved from a aircraft standpoint.

Part of me is going oh boy, when it comes to the Rules of Engagement and bombing air force bases and tank columns because we know thats going to lead to civilian casualties and the U.S. will be labeled once again as the villians.

To me the best solution would have been for the Arab League to supply the manpower and aircraft, but they are going to be tepid about it because it will make them a enemy of Libya if the air inderdiction fails.
