“Operation Odyssey Dawn”: 110 Tomahawk missiles are fired against Libya. Phase 1 of the war begins. US Navy together with British submarines and French Air Force have started to degrade the Gaddafi dictatorship with cruise missiles vs. Libyan air defense structures.

Russia, China, Germany, India and Brazil didn’t say yes (or no) in the UN security council, but the others had the will to stop Gaddafi’s war against Libyan population. (Notice: the prime ministers of Brazil, India and Germany are female!)

I am not very satisfied, that we are still living in those silly times, where not discussions, information, negotiations are the tools in conflicts but military methods seem to be necessary …
