Ok so I have a dumb question here. They declared a cease fire it's all over the news, so are you saying that since the fighters are already on there way they should go ahead and complete there mission because it would be a shame to waste the fuel? I mean seriously if there is a cease fire who cares if they are on the way already.

They have declared a ceasefire, yes.

But as they were just saying on SKY News etc, Ghadaffi isn't very good at keeping his word.

They are going to enforce the no-fly zone, whatever.

So they have to take out his anti-aircraft missile batteries and other things to make sure it's safe for us to fly around over there.

If there is one thing that he is good at it is surviving and I promise you he is not stupid. The man has been in power for 42 yrs do you really think he is going to attack an allied force? They are going to enforce a no fly zone. That does not mean take out ground targets, or at least they shouldn't without probably cause.

I am fairly sure that he know the consequences of breaking the cease fire. Basically he was counting on Russia and China to Veto. They didn't and know he is backtracking because he realizes they are going to actually do something instead of just talking.

That is my take on it. The only thing that I was pointing out is you were making it sound as if becaus they were already in the air or on the way there was no way to stop a war or something. I mean honestly that's like saying ok we are going to drop a nuke on so and so capital, Oih they surrendered? Well to bad we already have the plane in the air so we will just nukethem anyway.
