    briton.

    It will only be over when we kill Gaddafi, if we leave him alive the people of Libya will never find peace. When a snake attacks you you cut of its head to kill it. Gaddafi has attacked our civilized society on more than one occasion and we should have done something about him long long a go. No mercy, and if his mate Chavez the Chav gives him sanctuary we should go after that idiot as well and do Venezuela a favor.

    I notice that both Castro and Chavez are siding with Gaddafi, Castro wont give him sanctuary though, not when America is his next door neighbour, he is to cowerdly and ill to rock that little boat, Chavez though would give him a place to live out his life, Pea's in a pod come to mind.
