British HMS Cumberland puts into Benghazi port
Hundreds of US, British and French military advisers have arrived in Cyrenaica, Libya's eastern breakaway province, DEBKAfile's military sources report exclusively. This is the first time America and Europe have intervened militarily in any of the popular upheavals rolling through the Middle East since Tunisia's Jasmine Revolution in early January.

Anything from DEBKA, take with a grain of salt. Their history for accuracy is not that great.
The Brits have gone into Libya with C-130s to bring out civilians, and their ship going to Benghazi was for the same thing too. But no one has seen any evidence of these hundreds of military advisors going into Libya, that would be hard to keep secret.

I dont give a rat's rear end about the oil, which is not a significant amount in total. I want someone to protect those people and save lives. I'd dearly love to see that psycho with a bullet in his head.
