I am confused...........

I totally get helping the Lybian people, but....

where is Cameron getting the money to fund it from?

I wonder how many hospitals have been launched already..........

After 2 days of the invasion of Libya the cost was £49 million. Sky News reported it was an average of £25 million per day.
I stated £pounds so would that be the cost to Britain only?

Libya has oil. We need it because you all drive cars.

The no-fly zone was agreed at the UN which has 192 members. Therefore we are paying a disproportionate amount compared to some other countries.

If you take just the NATO members there are 28 members and it seems only the US, France and ourselves are paying for the conflict.

If these organisations exist why should'nt each member pay its fair share?

"f you take just the NATO members there are 28 members and it seems only the US, France and ourselves are paying for the conflict."

That is, the three countries that pushed for it, are paying for it. Seems fair enough to me.

thanks for all the input....all the posts were very thought provoking....but I am still completely pi$$ed off with DC for asking Obama 'how high?' when Obama said 'jump'

hey ho, the more things change, the more they stay the same.......

[rojash]

I.Don No,
I think you have it the wrong way round on this occasion. From the start, Cameron wanted to jump, and Obama was saying "down boy".

So do you think the forces are free unless ther eis a conflict.

Do you think weapons last forever ?

I don't understand the context - seriously

Rojash....if I have got it the wrong way round I must put a giant asterisk against the day DC went to see BO and mark it as a 'first'
