No Exit for the UK when it comes to LIBYA - Foreign Secretary Hague

BBC News: Reports on remarks by the UK Foreign Secretary William Hague that the UK has no exit timetable for Libya. If you UK is not going to stop bombing part of Libya still under the control of Colonel Gaddafi then it has to train the Eastern Libyans, and also arm them and show them how to use their new weapons. Also the UK with France will have to increase its Special Forces in Libya, this War cant not be endless, while the UK tax payer is facing cuts at home you cant have the UK Government in two Wars, the other being in Afghanistan. The Libyan Forces under Colonel Gaddafi are still attacking Misrata, it can be argued that this is the place to have boots on the ground, the troops could push the Gaddafi forces out, allow the rebels some breathing space, then the rebels could move from Misrata to attack the Capital, that is still under the control of Gaddafi. How ever great the RAF is it cant win a land war, it needs boots on the ground folks.
