The Lyrics

Over 100 days of bombing later and Libyan leader Gadhafi is still alive and well, killing rebels and alerting the media to US/NATO collateral damage. Arab world still upset and resentful. Airpower alone doesn't work- a lesson from WW2. Even against Japan in 1945, they did not surrender after 2 atomic bomb strikes. Only after news of the Russian ground entry did Japan surrender. US lost Vietnam even with superior airpower, Balkan war needed troops, and the coalition wars always needed troops. Gadhafi either needs to be assassinated by SFs ala Bin Laden, or else US/NATO ground troops need to intervene and take Libya by force. Otherwise, this campaign is a failure...
Lesson not learned from WW2
air power nullified

Gadhafi doesn’t care what you do
He ain’t lyin’
Rebs and civvies dyin’

US/NATO can’t stand it
Gadhafi’s still around
100 days of bombin’ later
Air power alone can’t take him down

Lesson not learned from WW2
air power nullified
Victory denied

Can’t kill you
Can’t kill you
Can’t kill you
Tyrant’s still around
Gadhafi doesn’t care
He’s holed-up in Tripoli
Knows aircraft can’t hold ground

What a pity
Lesson not learned from WW2
air power nullified
(NATO troops needed to take country)

It's what I say, both sides are bad in a war, they both are doing the same thing to each other, and learn nor win nothing! ;-) But this parody will win a war to me! 555! :-)

The fall of the Iron Curtain in 1989 proved that mankind didn't have to commit nuclear suicide. If the USA and USSR could settle their differences peacefully like they did, then SO CAN EVERYONE.

CW, as much as I woudl like to agree with you, I can't. There are people in this world that are evil and who will never change- period. Mankind's overall greed and lust and desire for violence to solve issues means that peace can only be maintained by counter-threat of violence. Even the Germans are NOT pacified- they were occupied for decades and have only been unified for just 21 years. The poor Bundeswehr has been trying to get involved in the Western Wars since 1991 with ODS but the stigma still prevents the German Govt. from authorizing direct military action on a wide scale. But as the WW2 generation dies out and the Holocaust is forgotten, that inner blood desire to glory on war will be made manifest. No matter how mankind tries the UN, the US, and the West are headed for downfall. Europe and China will be the aggressors as prophesied. One under the Antichrist and commanding 700 million and China with its 1.3 million. They are destined to clash. As an aside, the US and NATO don't belong in Libya's civil war even if we hate Gadhafi and his terrorist ways. If we intervene there, then what about all the corrupt and terrorist nations all over the globe? Why is the US/NATO not making war on Iran, Syria, and N Korea??? The BIGGER, REAL THREATS to humanity??? No, WW3 is inevitible and will occur long before resources run thin by 2050.

Sorry for lousy typos. China's 1.3 Billion!!! And Germany as the core of Europe is NOT Western despite appearances and co-operation. Historically, it is a CENTRAL power with desire for conquest in the East as well as West.
