Hush! There's goes a whizzbang!

And so we enter a new conflict. The new century is looking as turbulent as they come as the bombs fall on Gaddafi. The Colonel, or as The Sun calls him, Mad-Dog has been crushing rebellion in his country for well over a month now and finally a UN resolution passed two days ago to deal with the tyrant. Absolute power corrupts absolutely and Muammar Gaddafi is discovering how painful it is being left out in the cold in our global society...but so are his people. I really fear he will place civilians in harm's way during the coalition bombing raids. This proponent of state-sponsored terrorism is more than capable of such an evil act, and given his borderline insane state, we have to be really clear about our endgame, if it can be sol callously called.

So, we bomb again. We know only destruction as a remedy for destruction - it is sad that this is the only way, and I wonder how effective the blue helmets would have been in Libya rather than the stealth bombers. I don't believe this conflict has suspicious ambitions but I pray the outcome is clear and decisive. Gaddafi has to survive though, as martyrdom would ensue...ack, so many things to get lost in. I can only pray for the dust to settle here, even if as I think will happen, the country will divide into pro- and anti-Gaddafi. Either way, callous again as it is, our next production has some meat to devour - let's hope it gets you talking about things again.
