Arab League Backs No-Fly Zone Over Libya : NPR

Arab League Backs No-Fly Zone Over Libya : NPR

I really did not see this coming. To my memory it is the first time the league or any other Arab country has specifically requested this kind of intervention. Under cover of the UN it gains some legitimacy but it should still fall to the Arab nations and Europe to furnish the manpower. The US will have to step in now to shore up its relations with the new order that is emerging. We have been too involved with the old order and we must shed that millstone.
