I love some of the stuff they've welded together like Mig 21 unguided rocker launchers on the back of toyotas.
Photographed over rebel held territory.

Looks like another Toyota war. Last time that happened the Libyan army lost....badly. (Not sure about the mounting of those launchers though...accuracy could be a problem.)
Here is a question.....if the launchers are Russian made why are the instructions all written in English?

Because they are manufactured for export where just about all operators are expected to speak English in the aviation industry.

Can someone give me a short course in Libyan politics? Who are the rebels and why are they rebellious?

That one guy was holding a mint FNFS2000, people actually use those POS rifles in war zones? I thought FN just made them for the US market since they don't import any other good rifles, well except the SCAR now.

Not what I have heard. I heard these are old tribal rivalries.

anyway, the cia does have people over there, for months now. and yes, there is oil. (so "there will be blood", as upton sinclair once said) and yes, there are some mujadeen involved. but, ghaddaffi (however you spell it) is done. he tried to buy everyone off a few months back, but the egyptian thing kind of ignited a lot. (or was it the tunisia thing?) anyway, did that help?

oh, missed a few things.
yes, there are tribes involved. (aren't there always?) and yes, it's a made up country, like iraq. thought the italians can take credit - not the brits.

This is a good war because Hopey-changey said so. It doesn't matter that Congress didn't vote on it and that he derives his authority from a made-up euro-american military cartel and a synthetic international union of convenience.

Bush got congressional approval before his adventures. Obama did not.
