Libya. . . . . .the Benchmark. by NegroNtns(op): 11:26pm On Mar 23, 2011
Well. . , .witnessing the motive and decisive action by the coalition to invade and attack on Libya, how can anyone now say that the Iran issue must follow diplomatic path and terms negotiation for resolution?

If the opposition duplicates in Iran what took place in Libya, would coalition duplicate its response by invading and attacking, including a demarcation of sovereign airspace in Iran - are they willing to go that far?

Libya is a benchmark for the coalition to demonstrate its fairness and true leadership on matters of global conflicts, whether they are internal disputes as is the case in Libya and Iran or they are cross-boundary tussles as is the case maybe elsewhere. This is a test of will of the international community generally.

. . . .we shall see how this ends!

I think it would be a heaven sent for America if the circumstances in Libya were to be replicated in Iran, And that is only a matter of time.

Had Ghaddaffi not negotiated away his nuclear capability, could it have served as an active deterrent for the coalition? Seeing what has happened in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya. . . .does Iran not now have a strong case to argue in favor of a nuclear arsenal?

Pray tell, will this divine justice by the way of Libya-(Iran maybe)- be extended to Israel (for their atrocities against palestinian people)?
-OR-
are the 'chosen' people exempted?
