Airstrikes in Libya

Libya is at the moment nr 1 in the news, so after finally last week the No-Fly-Zone was approved at the UN security council, the Allied Nations started Airstrikes in Libya. According to what they are saying just Gaddafis Air defense weapons were destroyed.
After the No-Fly-Zone was announced Gaddafis troups announced an immediate ceasefire but everyone was very doubtful about that and the doubts turned out right.
I don't know what they thought when they announced the ceasefire (probably they were hoping that the UN won't implement the No-Fly-Zone) but the people who had their doubts about that announcement turned out to be right.
As far as it is known Gaddafi didn't launch any new air attacks but his ground troops continued fighting and instead of outside the towns they went inside to hide within the civilians. Yesterday I heard a interview from an Libyan hospital doctor and what he had to say sounded just horrible.

The Libyan state tv showed pictures of injured men and some burials and said that civilians were hit but there is no other proof then that so it is also possible that this men are soldiers.

Gadaffi also pronounced that this is going to be a long war.

Now the second nigh of airstrikes has taken place and more air defence weapons were destroyed.

The arab united nations who were first backing the no fly zone are criticising this one now as they were saying it went much further then they expected but still at least Quatar is sending fighter planes to support the UN in that matter.

In the end probably the civilians who just want to live their normal day to day life will be the one worst effected like it always is in a war, Already it is reported that some places don't have electricity anymore and who knows what will follow

Most people in the world agree that Gaddafi should leave as he is a dictator and repress his people but what is the price worthy paying??? The UN said that Gaddafi is not the target but of course in the long term they want him to be removed.

In Bahrain and Yemen on the same time also protests are going on and no one seem to care as much as in Libya, maybe because in Bahrain big Saudi Arabia got involved which is a big partner when it comes to oil? and in Yemen there is just nothing worth fighting for?

Gaddafi just simply pissed off the UN countries leader (specially UK and USA) and now the protests come in as a good opportunity to take action against him (even if they would never say that at this moment)

But the same happen in Afghanistan and Irak, the regimes were in power for long times, did a lot of crimes against the human rights acts and no one did anything until something happened where the UN was effected from (actually it was 9/11)

just lets all hope that this is not going to be another Irak or Afghanistan were civillians will suffer the most and for a very long time.
