Yep- I got that wrong. But that doesn't change the remainder of what I wrote. Anyone interfering will turn those people's wishes and aspirations into muck: They will always be accused of being controlled by outside forces.
There was also a small contingent of Dutch Marines who supposedly tried to supervise the evacuation of foreign nationals; they too were detained.
In both cases they were NOT detained by pro-Gaddafi forces, but by anti-Gaddafi rebels. One rebel-commander put it this way- just a few days ago: "Let the Americans look after their own people and their own problems- they have no business around here"
The politicians may bend over at the moment trying to present the above incidents as 'misunderstandings'- frankly I don't care. The Libyans began an uprising against their government- then they should finish what they have begun. If they got a problem with Gaddafi's aircraft- let their Anti-aircraft-gunners learn to use their guns. If they can't manage to do that- then they have a right to die on their feet rather than living on their knees.
ANYONE interferring in that place is going to turn the wishes of the people in that entire region into a farce. If you don't believe that- look at the clown who invitet the Normans into Ireland: He asked for their help.
And they liked the climate here soooo much- they decided to stay on for the next 700 years...
I would definitely have to go with Hermione Granger... The spell she left on Draco Malfoy's nose alone is well worth my vote ('Prisoner of Azkhaban')- and completely without a wand!
