Reality Check

Reality check.
As the coalition seems to be confused as to how to continue and American planes no longer taking part in the bombing of Libya we are all wondering what happens next?
With the Bishop of Tripoli saying that Mad Mo will not leave and and a negotiated solution should be found, signalling an about turn by the Vatican on resolution 1973.
Mad Mo is now using Israeli made weapons committing crimes against humanity in Misratah and other Libyan towns. Nothing new there as Psycho Saif had turned up inTel-Aviv with a purported five billion US Dollars for Israel to supply arms and recruit mercenaries from Sub- Saharan Africa at the beginning of the unrest.
Maybe it is cracks between the State Department and The Department of Defence that allows such shenanigans to continue but that coupled with the intended public questioning of former Mad Mo loyalist and foreign minister Moussa Koussa about a variety of issues including the bombing of  Pam Am 103 is giving a completely mixed message to those who may be brave enough to defect.
Though the resistance is claiming that they are receiving weaponry from the United States and training by the Egyptian military  without a clear aim Gaddafi will continue to inflict death and destruction on his own.
Murmurs of Al Qaida infiltrating the resistance is making the coalition less focused on the main aim which should be the ouster and subsequent trial of the Colonel and his henchmen whilst still retaining  a credible corps of military and civilian administration so as not to make the same mistakes as in Iraq or Afghanistan.
It is therefore essential that this conflict is over as soon as possible with Mad Mo taken out of the equation, Israel to stop arming him or laundering his funds.
To quote Thomas Jefferson "Prudence ... will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."
So now it is the duty of the coalition to use all means at their disposal to enable the people of Libya to be set free.
