    "Military advisers."

    We've been using that euphemism with press complicity since, at least, Vietnam. I assume these are Special Forces like the Green Berets.

    I hope we get some sort of political goodwill out of it. If Americans are seen to be killing Libyans, it could come out bad. Tricky business.

    That paragraph does give me a vision of about 200 guys standing around the general going "hey! HEY! you should do this!!"

    A joint move should be made to oust this mad man. It wouldn't take much and his merc support would simply haul ***. They should freeze whatever foreign held billions they can find and they should force his suicide/KIA/removal to the Hague. The yield for a little bit of muscle should be fairly high.

    Buck, I never took you for the hawkish type.

    The U.S. is calling for sanctions, so some type of military action may be next.
