Re: Bosnia, it is a gray area. It is regarded as a civil war by some people qualified to judge these things, and not regarded as that by others similarly qualified. read this: Bosnia After Dayton: Nationalist Partition and International Intervention - Sumantra Bose - Google Books .

While any land intervention would be absolutely counter-productive, if Gaddafi keeps bombing areas controlled by rebels, prevents humanitarian aid getting there, and it becomes a bloodbath like he has promised it will be, then a no-fly zone should be established. Reflexive anti-americanism is fine, but dont let that get in the way of protecting people who are trying to overthrow a lunatic dictator.

Established by who, NATO? This idea would be rejected by China and Russia thus not approved by the UN security council, are you fine with that?
