We more than pull our fair share of the weight.America is broke. This isn't America's fight.
Let Canada lead the way. How about a new era of Pax Canadica? I like the sound of that. America needs to mind its own business.

Well Israel probably does need more land ^^!!If they have trouble, ask Israel to help them.
I agree that the main effort should be European. Let them start punching at their weight. The Brits do - Same with the Dutch - The rest - welllllllllllCanada punches above its weight. But that's not the point.
It's not the point because it doesn't mean much when the heavy weight decides that he has retired. America is through with foreign involvements outside of North America. If Obama gets heavily involved in this Arab mess, it will be used against him.
America has no money to spend outside the country. What few dollars we have left would be better spent teaching Mexican kids to speak English.
There's a new attitude among American conservatives. Some American leftists also recognize that the Party is over. Let the chips fall where they may.
Two thumbs up on the no-fly zone.

I assume everyone realizes that in order to establish the NFZ it will be necessary to take out Libyan air defenses. Libyans will die as a result.
You want access to cheap oil? Don't forget that a large part of the problem has been Americans propping up various tin pot dictators in the area when it suited them and now all that interfering is coming home to roost.
And EVERYONE should get their hands dirty. If they want in this "No Fly Zone" party... they have to bomb too. No hanging back and blaming others for the collateral damage.
Hot Off the Press....
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Thursday that a U.N. no-fly zone over Libya "requires certain actions taken to protect the planes and the pilots, including bombing targets like the Libyan defense systems."
Ya Ya Ya... we get that.
What does that have to do with Libya? We were the first and only ones to dope slap Gadaffi back in the 80's.
Besides, Canada has their troops all over the place and is the 14th Largest Arms exporter. You aren't that innocent.
They will, and more. "All necessary measures" is a broad scope.Well that is your opinion. I won't even call you a war monger.
But they are going to have to do more than fly around in circles. They'll have to bomb.
