Too Little Too Late. The West wants him out now and only a complete surrender imo will suffice at this stage.

Why is that mentioning Iraq - and not Libya - also we are not bombing Libya we are using fighter jets not bombers???

Ps I think that is an old link as they are no longer taking comments on that article

Im not 100% sure if Gaddafi has declared the ceasefire I think its the opposing government but its live now on BBC news stated in the thread title

geezz..that's the Iraq War

The British-based bombers have yet to see action in the war against Saddam Hussein.

Sky News

The Libyan government has announced an immediate ceasefire, less than two hours after Prime Minister David Cameron said British fighter jets would be deployed to enforce a United Nations no-fly zone.

edit on 18-3-2011 by blackcat99 because: (no reason given)

So why are they going to bomb his bases, troops, anti-aircraft missiles so it will be safe to enforce the no-fly zone?

The UN Resolution states "By all means neccessary"

It's all over Sky News etc., our Priminister has said our Fighters are also on the way there!

Watch the news pal...!

breaking on CNN too..

Libya's foreign minister declares cease-fire after U.N. Security Council OKs no-fly zone to protect civilians.

I'll bet it was THIS that got him shaking in his pointy little boots.

I would imagine the elite are disappointed.

They want a war to make money as stated in all the other Libyan threads.

Used the Japanese quake as a distraction.

Gone in for the strike and.....

Libya no they don't want to get involved in a 10 year wars like what's happened in the middle east.

PS we are sending Tornados and Typhoons - not B52's

Gaddafi has bought a few more days IMO. Ever the cockroach this guy will be around for a while yet.
