Now reports have confirmed the first phase of presence of foreign troops in Libya in the name of 'military advisers.'
First, British military experts are on their way to the city of Benghazi to help rebel forces. Britain says the officers will not be involved in fighting, but the move raises the question of whether the international mission in Libya is expanding.
And now, France and Italy on April 20 promised more support for Libya's opposition, saying they would join Britain in sending military advisers to help the rebels break a battlefield stalemate.
The question is, whether this would lead to escalation of fight in Libya or whether this would lead to some settlement, breaking the current stalemate?

I hope not, I hope they help and do not make matters worse
this is just sad? Why can't we live peacefully?

Agreed. I need to read some @johannhari1 I think!
Obama can hardly manage the USA budget crisis, closing Guatanamo or keeping Bush's timetable in Iraq so why go into Libya now?
Thanks for the blog post :)
Lets hope the reruns end soon. 80s retro is bad enough, without another oil crisis/war in SEA/MASH repeat
Foreign intervention nearly always worsens the situation!
