Nobel Peace Laureate Conducts Three-Front War in the Middle East
Muammar Gaddafi has been handed a "non-negotiable ultimatum" by Barack Obama to accept an immediate ceasefire, pull back from Libyan rebel strongholds and permit humanitarian assistance – or face the full onslaught of UN-endorsed air strikes.
In an attempt to reassure Middle East opinion and his own domestic audience, Obama said the US would help to co-ordinate a no-fly-zone, but not lead an operation that will include French, British and Arab jets.
I'm sure his enemies on the Right will note that he isn't even going to "lead", but, hey, here's another U.S. war for Middle Eastern peace for you.
