Disruption in the interview room?
I went to the toilet and when I came back there was a lot of noise and the spokesperson saying that it was just a protest in support of Gaddafi. What the fuck did I miss?

AJE isn't showing anything out of the ordinary.
so what now, is gaddafi going to respond with some bullshit like that the whole U.N. is high on drugged nescafe

Fucking finally. We ought to have started airstrikes back when the revolution started.
Loving the stage managed pro-Gadaffi invasion of the Libyan Government's press-conference.
Sky news and AJE are showing live(?) footage of the "invasion" of the press conference. It came just as questions got awkward. BBC reporting that the French claimed they would be able to attack in hours and they have not retracted this like the UK has. Edit: Christ that was some terrible grammar. And even more, I should proof read before posting.

I wonder what will happen now. Since airstrikes are coming. And so is an invasion
[QUOTE=Faceslasher;28660237]I wonder what will happen now. Since airstrikes are coming. And so is an invasion[/QUOTE] An invasion wont happen IMO unless the shit really hits the fan.
[QUOTE=MajorMattem;28660228]Whoa, what?! Someone explain this to me.[/QUOTE] Right as the press started asking hard hitting questions, a giant crowd of pro Gaddafi supporters suddenly rushed in and broke up the conference.
[QUOTE=Faceslasher;28660237]I wonder what will happen now. Since airstrikes are coming. And so is an invasion[/QUOTE] There is an invasion? I think its just a no-fly zone.
[QUOTE=MajorMattem;28660228]Whoa, what?! Someone explain this to me.[/QUOTE] It seems as if the Gadaffi regime has attempted to distract the international community by flooding pro-Gadaffi demonstrators into a press-conference by the Foreign Minister in order to avoid further scrutiny. Furthermore, the whole press-conference was so ambiguous, that it is very difficult to discern what is actually the Government's message.

Right now, all that's planned is a no fly zone and air strikes to protect civilians, if an invasion were to happen it would probably come from other Arab nations with maybe some NATO influence.

Hopefully Egypt's decision doesn't haunt them down the road
[QUOTE=Tac Error;28659888]Like our "battleship"? [img_thumb]http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/3c/HMCS_Charlottetown_FFH_339.jpg/800px-HMCS_Charlottetown_FFH_339.jpg[/img_thumb][/QUOTE] That's a 'battleship'?
Wow, this is some good timing. No-Fly resolution passed and airstrikes inbound. All while the last of the rebels hold up and await the final siege. Race against time here.
[QUOTE=samusaran253;28660422]That's a 'battleship'?[/QUOTE] It's a frigate.
[QUOTE=Tac Error;28660449]It's a frigate.[/QUOTE] It's a Canadian battleship, biggest there is. They might also send out their mighty aircraft carrier; [img]http://deco-01.slide.com/r/1/104/dl/q2q7B-4S5j_7cRvGq3Pxexd7rQzoPcjf/watermark[/img]

Too bad the Trudeau government fucked up and sold the ship during the downsizing of the Canadian Forces.

Oh well we're getting 65 F-35s to replace our F-18s. And someone told me were increasing our military budget. Anyways this isn't the topic for the Canadian forces.
