Col. Klink is Italy's creature, let them take care of him. Let them fix him up with a villa & some local lovelies in Portofino or some such, and then cut some deals with whoever is answering the phone in Tripoli.
I do not know who these rebels are. Maybe they are democrats, maybe they are al Qaeda/Mahgreb division. But after Somalia, I know that libs don't have the follow-through necessary to finish any war that their flamin' "consciences" get us into. I know that if we are shown video of our dead soldiers being dragged through streets of howling mobs that we were trying to help, libs will barely stifle a yawn.
