How many days ago was it that obama (and biden) said "no U.S. boots on the ground"? Has it even been a whole week?

Now we have this news from a U.S. general familiar with the Libya operation:

source

The U.S. may consider sending troops into Libya with a possible international ground force that could aid the rebels, the former U.S. commander of the military mission said Thursday, describing the ongoing operation as a stalemate that is more likely to go on now that America has handed control to NATO.


Will this be another administration flip-flop?

Really? I never thought they would go this far in order to get a hold on the Oil, sorry, to protect the civilians.

Fair play, hopefully we will see gas prices come down once the supply from Libya is up and running again.

Plus, as Libya has been self sufficient and not endebted to the World Bank, hopefully we can ensure the new government changes that trend as soon as possible.

Well if you had more exp on ATS, you would know that even as members we try minimize repeated threads. Soon as the green wears off, then you might understand~
