Libyan Front Line

Telegraph Live: Reports that the US has stated that the Allied Air attacks on Libya have stopped the military advance of Colonel Gaddafi on Benghazi. It seems from BBC reports via the newswires that the people of Benghazi as still being killed and other towns and cities in under rebel control are coming under attack from the security forces of Gaddafi. This blog is happy about the US, UK, France, and other Allies have finally got going but at the end of the day there will have to be ground troops, the Gaddafi forces are nothing when compared to those of NATO, thus it can not be allowed to take weeks or months, in less the Air power gets a lucky shot and takes out Gaddafi the military planners will have to get ready a plan for a small scale troops on the ground operation. This is the next logical step folks, in less Gaddafi does a runner, and the air power does not get lucky, the Gaddafi regime can not be allowed to stay in power, the UN would take a hit and the political leaders would look like they took half measures, lets finish this folks.
