Guardian: Reports that the UK and France have produced a draft UN Resolution that would place No Fly Zone over Libya, the resolution faces a veto from Russia and China. This is the central problem of the UN, its nice place for a talking shop but the last time it was of any use was during the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962, and that was a PR stunt by the Kennedy Administration. At the end of the day the decision is down to the Oval Office, does President Obama have the stomach to be the leader of the last Super Power. Thus far with many thousands being killed in Libya the Oval has had tough words but it could just be hot air without any real action, thus will Obama give the word and have a No Fly Zone, if yes he gets re-elected in 2012, if no it could be another Bush 44 as in Jeb Bush.
