it's also good to remind people that a Western military intervention in Libya -- with or without UN Security Council authorization -- would be exploited by the most powerful elements of the "West," e.g., the U.S. and major oil companies, in order to promote their interests. For example, the oil companies would likely push to get better terms (for them) in Libyan oil extraction. -- Jim Devine / "Segui il tuo corso, e lascia dir le genti."
