Now let’s see what they do with their resolution…..  Who is going to enforce it?   Yesterday Saif Gadaffi gave the rebels in Bengazi a time line (deadline) of midnight last night to put down their arms.   Bengazi is the 2nd largest city in Libya and the first city to be ‘liberated’ by the rebellion.   The U.N. resolution today is in response to Quackdaffy’s military bearing down on Bengazi.  They are attempting to head off the potential for a massive military attack against the city by pro-Quackdaffy forces.   This is a breaking development and more will be announced soon.   However, the question remains, now a “No-Fly” zone is approved who is going to enforce it? (AFP)– U.N. Security Council members agreed on a draft resolution that will impose a no-fly zone over Libya, diplomats in New York said. The measure passed a vote at 6:30pm EST.   10Yea – 0 Nay with 5 abstensions.

Welcome to another edition of the West Wing bizzarro world where, right is wrong, up is down, lies are truth, and fiction is sold as fact…… (RCP) — White House press secretary Jay Carney:

“We are acting with a great sense of urgency, together with our international partners to take the kinds of actions that we believe will protect Libyan citizens and, you know, move towards a situation where Gaddafi is no longer in power — which is what we believe the Libyan people want. Again, I would refer you to the fact that the actions that we, the international community with the leadership of the United States have taken — are unprecedented in their speed and their sweep ask their scope and the actions that the United Nations may take as it emerges — when the Security Council emerges from its negotiations will again be unprecedented in the speed and scope.” (video) (more…)

So now Sarkozy has smacked his chum in the face, Quackdaffy feels no reason to keep their relationship a secret. Daffy is like Rahm “deadfish” Emanuel, he’s got a file on everyone. I can only imagine the “dirt” Quackdaffy has on all those European leaders, and those closer to home…… Priceless

(Paris) – Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi’s son on Wednesday told “this clown” French President Nicolas Sarkozy to “give us back our money” allegedly used to finance his 2007 election victory. (more…)

To insure the west stays out of his business while he encircles Benghazi, Captain Crazy has shifted strategy a bit.…… (Business Insider) — Colonel Qaddafi is switching scare tactics. For weeks he warned that any ouster of himself would let Al Qaeda take control of Libya. Now he warns that in an invasion he would join forces with Al Qaeda. Qaddafi told Il Giornale: “We will ally ourselves with al-Qaida and declare holy war.” That indeed is a scary idea, which will give America another reason not to commit to a no-fly zone.  (more…)

Sorry, rebel crew, but BamBam ain’t gonna help ya.   Best idea is to bug out of there before Saint Patrick’s day.   Nothing is gonna stop Quackdaffy from stretching your necks.   Head for the hills and open the Gates to Benghazi before he gets there or he’ll bring hell in with him……  (Guardian)- Libya’s revolutionary leadership is pressing western powers to assassinate Muammar Gaddafi and launch military strikes against his forces to protect rebel-held cities from the threat of bloody assault.    (more…)

The liberal pundits continue to celebrate the liberation of Egypt from 60 years of Pharaonic rule while the news no one wants to believe filters back. Censorship by omission is in vogue again because of a reluctance, bordering on paralysis, to recognize there is no law and no order.  Radical Islam has once again found a comforatable abode via a resurgence and new legality for the Muslim Brotherhood, and so begins a renewed enslavement of the population.   Some Examples: (more…)

** Ha !! I had to bump this up.  Look in the comments for why.  (Al Jazerra) Opposition fighters have been forced to withdraw from the central port city of Ras Lanuf as forces loyal to Colonel Muammar Gaddafi launched a major offensive against rebels fighting to end the Libyan leader’s decades-long rule.  Pro- and anti-government forces are locked in intense fighting for control of several other cities and towns along the coastline to the east of Tripoli, including Brega and Bin Jawad, as well as in Az Zawiyah to the west of the capital.

Yikes, don’t know how I feel about this.  On one hand to hear the National Security Director state his opinion is the same as your hypothesis is a good thing.   However, on the other hand the National Security Director is generally considered inept.   Hmmm….   James Clapper has just stated that he fully expects Quackdaffy to survive and continue to be the leader of Libya.  (more…)

(Al Jazeera) – North Africa:  Rebels will not pursue Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi over crimes they say he has committed if he steps down from his post in the next 72 hours, the head of the rebel National Libyan Council has told Al Jazeera. “If he leaves Libya immediately, during 72 hours, and stops the bombardment, we as Libyans will step back from pursuing him for crimes,” Mustafa Abdel Jalil, head of the opposition National Council, told Al Jazeera on Tuesday.  (more…)
