NATO's Admiral A(c)kbar Moment

There is only one video clip appropriate to describe what just happened between NATO and the Arab League.



In a full about face, the Arab League condemned the NATO led attack on Libyan air defenses in support of a Security Council resolution calling for protection of civilians.

For those with short memory spans, the Arab League called for a no-fly zone over Libya. It is quite clear that the Arab League was woefully unaware of what a no-fly zone is, and their political posturing has led to America's direct involvement in a third Muslim country in the past decade.

NATO, and the United States in particular, need to reconsider and reevaluate their involvement in this operation.

  2. At least Admiral Ackbar had the fortune to make a U-Turn and retreat until the rebels could get the shields down.

    NATO, on the other hand, went it with the shields down so to speak, only to have the Arab League protest the operation after it was launched.

  3. Too complicated to tell.

    The people in Misrata = Eworks
    Ghadaffi = The evil empreror
    Moussa Kousa (Former Foreing Minister) = Darth Vader
    NATO = The Rebel Forces
    The CIA = Han Solo, Princess Leah, C3PO and the others on Endor trying to take out that shield generator.
