I am more concerned with the idea floating around to arm Lybian protesters.

This may be a bad idea. Most of the arms may end up in Al-Qaeda hands or their supporters. When there is a power vacuum Al-Qaeda will be ready to step in. Good idea for arms manufacturers, not a good idea for US security.

From what I have seen looks like the people in Lybia are gainning momentum.

Freedom does come with a price. Lybians need to demand and fight for their own freedom.

Seems freedom given on a silver platter is not cherished as freedom that is fought for.
