talkpoliticsTime magazine has an interesting OPed piece advocating for US intervention into Libya, the story is here: http://news.yahoo.com/s/time/08599205747000;_ylt=AlaQAT8F0gGOcLmOzYJ421RH2ocA;_ylu=X3oDMTE0cTIyYjdyBHBvcwMyBHNlYwN5bi1yLWItbGVmdARzbGsDLWxpYnlhJiMzOQ--#mwpphu-container

I think we should stay out of it, there is nothing that the US can do to help the rebels without 1) they losing legitimacy and 2) we coming across as sticking our noses in another place they don't belong, giving the groups that already hate us another reason to shout "I told you so". Besides, I thought this was the purview of the UN, anyways: to help mediate conflicts and so forth.
