Libya: U.S. Tomahawk Cruise Missiles Hit Targets in Libya


From ABC News:


"More than 112 Tomahawk cruise missiles struck over 20 targets inside Libya today in the opening phase of an international military operation the Pentagon said was aimed at stopping attacks led by Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi and enforcing a U.N.-backed no-fly zone."

We are now engaged in our third war with no talk about how President Obama completely by-passed Congress and the War Powers Act. I thought he was going to bring our troops home?

One correction, I've been saying Third Generation Soviet aircraft but have neglected the 50 or so Mirage F-1 aircraft that the French sold Gaddafi. I believe he also bought some AS.12 or AS.15 anti-ship missiles from the French. Now the Allied forces get to figure out if that Mirage is a Libyan or a French pilot.
