of course was the ground troops made all the difference ground troops finally removed troops from kosovo we're not going to see ground troops in libya but we might be seeing is more intelligence on the ground more interest of gadhafi regime by rebels or indeed by foreign intelligence and then perhaps a crucial strike to finally we can get our fear and remove him but it is clear that the moment the nature of strategy isn't fully working that's been apparent for many weeks now what about the latest development concerning germany now recognizing the rebels how significant is that. but it's a belated move really but at least one shows that the german government realize its previous stance of just sitting on the fence and somehow abstaining isn't really working i mean the russian president. steyn for the reasons that we we know we need to do a domestic politics but he clearly didn't think gadhafi had much legitimacy and that's what he said at the summit of the g. eight germany's move i think is belated but it stephanie welcome what about the situation in syria britain france and becoming more
