Being reported by FOX news, which means liberals don’t see it yet. I suppose the MSM will spin as a misunderstanding between “Good Democracy advocates and the evil regime of Lybia that Obama is handling perfectly”

British Soldiers Reportedly Captured by Libyan Rebels During Secret Mission

Up to eight British soldiers are being held by rebel forces in Libya after a secret mission to put British diplomats in touch with opponents of Libyan leader Muammar al-Qaddafi, according to the London Times.

The soldiers were captured Saturday as they escorted a junior diplomat through rebel-held territory in eastern Libya, according to the paper.

This comes after Qaddafi loyalists swept into the opposition-held city closest to Tripoli, tightening security around the regime-held capital. To the east, rebel forces captured a key oil port as the country veered toward civil war.

Rebels said government forces had moved in to Zawiya, west of the capital, with tanks and dozens of people had been injured, but they vowed to keep up the fight. One rebel said the hospital was under control of pro-Qaddafi forces so the injured were being taken to a makeshift clinic set up in a mosque or to private homes for treatment.

Truth be told I expected this type of asshattery to happen to our guys, similar to Iran in 79. Only now it’s Britain. My heart goes out to the Brits. This may not turn out well at all.

Britain is trying to do something that the US has pretty much done in all corners of the world. WHY? You see what its got us. The only reason Britain is stepping up in this manner is oil prices. The Brits already pay a very high price for petrol. They can’t afford much more increases or they will collapse. The Brits are trying to do some thing to stave off the inevitable. I suggest the Brits leave it alone. The Chinese need oil worse than Britain or the USA, they are growing and an increase will hurt them too. Time for the pain to start.

MY OPINION:

Every time there is some unrest in some part of the world the USA comes to the rescue and it’s gotten us nothing but heartache, wars, terrorism and scorn from the world. China and Russia never do shit to help either side of a conflict for the most part and they are looked on favorably. I suggest the world get use to us NOT being involved. This particular crisis is manufactured by our current POTUS, he wants energy prices sky high so he can push his “Clean green agenda” that is going to backfire three fold.

I commend the Brits for trying something “OUTSIDE” the USA’s hand. It has to be a western country because the Islamic countries don’t help their own. I think the Brits are about to find out why we shouldn’t do anything. The mess in Libya needs to be sorted out by Libyan’s. And the same goes for ANY ISLAMIC Country that is seeing a “Democratic Revolution”…
