Finally! The U.N. intervenes in Libya









As Colonel Gaddafi's forces closed in on the rebel base of Benghazi the U.N. finally got around to the idea of imposing a no fly zone over Libya. This gives the U.S. and other U.N. forces clearance to attack any of Libya's ground forces threatening to attack cities or any other places where civilians might be. This saved the rebellion from a military defeat but the U.N. also does not want the rebels causing any more violence. The U.N. wants a ceasefire so no more people get hurt and I am glad that the U.N. has begun to do something, even if it did take them a while.
