Hey there. I'm pretty sure this is my first login in months, and I feel like a change. The username 'Blacksheep' appears to be available. Any chance I can have it changed to that?
Much appreciated.

Re: Civil Unrest In Middle Eastern Arab States
I'm guessing it implies any form of military action short of boots on the ground. That's what was being stressed, according to the declaration. Also... This is craziness, madness, arrogance. If the world gets crazy with us we will get crazy too. We will respond. We will make their lives hell because...

No article to share yet, but BBC News 24 is reporting that the UK and France could be ready to rock and roll as soon as tomorrow with the US approving of such action.

I am not up on maritime law or any of it's intricacies, but in my personal opinion anything short of direct and vicious response is a waste of time.

Shooting protesters has happened in more "civilized" countries than Libya. That is sort of my point... why would it be all that shocking? Asshats are asshats.

You'd think someone with the money to do something like that would at least read/watch the news and know better or be more wary or prepared when they travel there. Surprisingly enough, that is almost never the case. I have a hard time pitying these people, as a result.
