OP, you wouldn't be a TOOL fan would you :) "Change is coming through my shadow"! As of now the Pentagon is still "looking at a full range of options"... But I think we all know where this is going lol...full range of options Waltzing into the shit-storm is only going to present ONE option I agree entirely...but, in their minds, there is, and only has ever been, one real option..

Here's what we can do to change the world, right now, to a better ride. Take all that money we spend on weapons and defenses each year and instead spend it feeding and clothing and educating the poor of the world, which it would pay for many times over, not one human being excluded, and we could explore space, together, both inner and outer, forever, in peace. -Bill Hicks |

The Kearsarge, an amphibious ship capable of carrying up to 2,000 Marines, will be bringing about 400 Marines from the United States, Gates said. The two warships will be joining the USS Enterprise, which is in the Red Sea en route to the Suez Canal. The ships would need to transit the canal before entering Libyan waters, military officials told National Journal. "I have directed several Navy ships to the Mediterranean,” Gates told a news conference with Adm. Mike Mullen, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff." “We’re obviously looking at a lot of options and contingencies. No decisions have been made on any other actions,” the defense chief added. “Our job is to give the president the broadest possible decision space and options."

EVACUATE WHO???? No, this is the beginning of US forces landing and fighting in Libya... And like I said yesterday, you'll see the same manhunt that we saw in Panama and Iraq...

| BVNDY User ID: 990106 03/01/2011 05:32 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Just from my memory -the Kersarge is capable of holding 3000 marines easy and the enterprise at least 5000 but i also remember that it doesnt take that many marines to get the job done Quoting: woof658FOR GOING into Libya that number would be fifty, twenty if they are sober. Ten if their guns are LOADED |

| warpcrafter User ID: 1187872 03/01/2011 07:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | After the Marines are massacred and some suitable bullshit story has been written about it, then it will become breaking news on CNN. And then the people shall react with the planned amount of outrage, Muslims will be murdered in American streets, then we will have martial law and a third front in our illegal war. Nor prophecy, just the ability to remember what happened after 9/11 and extrapolate a tiny bit based on recent events. I really hope I'm wrong, though... |
