UN Approves Airstrikes, No Fly Zone on Libya

Oh boy.  The Security Council resolution was proposed by the UK, France, and Lebanon.  Here we go, though part of me can't help feeling that it is too little, too late ... or at least an act at the eleventh hour.   The WSJ story says air strikes could start "within days."  The rebels likely don't have days.


UPDATE:  News of imminent Western-led military force against Gaddafi leads to jubilation in Libya.  Hmmmm.  The Insta-Prof has some thoughts.
