Britain should not have had troops on the ground in contravention of UN resolution 1973. We were told that there were not any troops on the ground and it was purely a 'no-fly' zone.
Now very few, deny that Gaddafi was a bit of a nutter, but he was a best mate of most of the British Government and quite a few of the Royal Family. Our secret service, conspired with him to betray several Libyan dissidents over the years. When the CIA inspired revolt against him started the US, stood back and let Britain and France get on with it. It now transpires that not only did we supply them with troops, but also weapons, as we all knew at the time.

There's a programme tonight about Libya and the visit by a father of one of the victims of Lockerbie. STV at 7.30 I think. Will be worth watching.
