The New York Times: Reports that NATO has escalated its attacks in Libya, the next step is to attack the command and control structure of the Gaddafi Regime, also take out the power structures of the Libyan Regime, even State TV. This is down to the fact folks that Washington D.C, London, Paris, and Rome can not afford for Gaddafi to win, lets take the example of POTUS, he faces re-election next year, in the Presidential debates does he want the Republican nominee to attack him for being weak over Libya. In the UK Coalition PM David Cameron does not want a long war, there is always a chance that a RAF plane might get shot down, or the military advisers might get in to combat and get killed. Thus in pure political terms both Obama and Cameron want a quick kill of Gaddafi, either he dies in Libya or dies abroad, as long as he is no longer in power that is the end result required by the West. Thus lets see if NATO can get lucky, and more important the Libyan people.
