Sixty percent of Americans support the U.S. and allied military action in Libya to impose a no-fly zone to protect civilians from forces loyal to Muammar Gaddafi, a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Thursday found. The poll was taken three days after the U.S.-led bombing campaign against Libya was launched last Saturday.
Seventy-nine percent of those surveyed said the United States and its allies should try to remove Libyan leader Gaddafi, who has ruled the oil-exporting North African country for more than four decades.

What I can’t understand is this. If the UN was created to help ensure that the earth in it’s entirety is cared for, and this man has been deemed to be terrorizing his citizens, why will the UN not mark this man as a Terrorist to his own country? The majority of the population appears to be against this man being in office and he refuses to step down.
If the above is true, why is this man not a target for the attacks?... Lets cut the loss of life whether military or civilian, and finish this task so we can enhance our efforts elsewhere.

Alain Juppé a parlé de "régime barbare et inacceptable pour la communauté internationale" et estimé que le régime de Mouammar Kadhafi était dans une impasse.
"Nous n'imaginons pas qu'un régime incarné par une telle personne puisse perdurer mais c'est aux Libyens de décider de leur avenir, a-t-il dit. Est-ce qu'on peut continuer avec un dictateur, je ne veux pas utiliser de termes excessifs, mais fou?"...
"Un grand changement est en train de s'opérer, a-t-il dit. Très longtemps, la politique arabe de la France a visé à la stabilité. Aujourd'hui, la politique arabe, c'est d'être à l'écoute des aspirations des peuples."
