10:10 am
is not telling the truth about its campaign. maybe surprising one on one end that gadhafi has held up as long as specially given the extent of the onslaught against him and the attempts to assassinate him and the killing of his son and grandchildren and i think that was perhaps not foreseen in the original action that was. the idea of protecting civilians by bombing civilian populations is on its face ridiculous and in itself exposes that this is not about humanitarian intervention and that lie has been that has been thoroughly exposed i think by the fact that the initial no fly zone turned pretty much overnight into a bombing campaign which turned into a campaign which we were promised was not to overthrow the regime and to get gadhafi out of there so i think it's just a lie after lie and i think that pretty adequately exposes the fact that this is not alternately about humanitarian intervention and cowardice will not stop until
