The EU, the UN and the U.S. consider measures and sanctions against the Libyan regime - in part, those were already spoken as an arms embargo and the freezing of foreign assets. One option is a flight ban on Libya, which is to prevent aircraft to attack demonstrators. to decide An outright ban on flights or a no-fly zone is one thing. Enforcement is another. A fly can not be controlled from the Oval Office in Washington and enforced. Rather, it needs to launch a military action, at least in the air, ideally on the ground. Consequently, President Obama has confirmed in a recent speech, that the discussions on sanctions and measures against Libya would not rule out military action. And the U.S. Ausenministerin reiterated: "The world will not stand by as the Libyan regime kills its citizens."
pushed through two useless wars in Afghanistan and Iraq to the brink of bankruptcy, the U.S. is considering and, according to a military action abroad. Hastily drawn together in the Mediterranean and brought U.S. forces against Libya in position. This despite the 1986 air attack against the country failed miserably. Not only were most of the targeted goals missed and instead killed innocent civilians, but the entire operation has been operational and overshadowed technical problems. Dilettante was only the failed operation to free the Iranian Embassy hostages in the desert of Iran.
The Libyan people have now been freed up on its own large parts of the country's despot. To the east of Libya has already formed a transitional government that reflects on a country by Gaddafi and prepared first free elections. In Tripoli and the West of the country are still some towns and districts under the control of the old regime, but it is a matter of time until the whole of Libya is free. It is the revolution of the Libyan people. It creates without outside help, and any intervention by U.S. or EU troops controlled the matter would sabotage of the people. The Libyan people, drawn from more than 40 years of dictatorship and slavery, needs no outside help. The pent-up anger is quite enough to topple the regime. could theoretically win
While the U.S. thanks to its modern and in great numbers available weapons arsenal in a short time the skies would be a deployment of ground troops fatal. Their training is based, as well as the Air Force, largely on the Nevada desert, where there are no guerrillas and suicide bombers are still bad weather. Once changed conditions occur, the American troops got into trouble regularly. Korea, Vietnam, Somalia, Afghanistan and the Iraq are clear examples. All these operations were launched as a roll command, and all failed miserably. Libya would be no exception. The Libyan people will not tolerate any intervention, but to fight on two fronts. Against Gaddafi, and against the Americans.
Therefore, it is measured, if the U.S. government believes it could achieve a military operation in Libya something. Such an application would fail just as other operations. In addition, the heavily indebted state budget of the United States make no more war, and certainly not one that lasts longer. And that Libya would become a new Afghanistan, is beyond doubt.
