I know that we are a piss-poor third-rate powerless excuse for a bloody nation, with the Royal Navy reduced to requisitioning cross-channel ferries with an Oerlikon mounted on the foc'sle whilst hundreds of Admirals squabble about who is going to shoot it first, the RAF having three part-time pilots flying borrowed Cessna's and the British Army that once stood in fearless squares facing Napoleon's charging Hussars at Waterloo now having to share Lee-enfields and count the bullets with lady-warriors who flouncing from the front-line trenches to sue for involuntary shagging by uncouth hairy-arsed squaddies
But imagine the opportunity!
Ghaddafi, a raving nutter hated by his people , machine gunning and bombing his own, despised with a visceral hatred nurtured over 40 years of insanity.
Britain could now send in a battalion of Royal Marines, a Regiment of paratropers and the two remaining rusting Tornadoes, and restore peace and sanity within 48 hours!
Imagine the kudos in the Arab world!
The Western-Arab relations would be transformed forever!
No more bullshit supporting dictators and selling them arms
We would be genuine liberators
A new dawn would emerge
Arab democracies supported magnanimously by Britain's Arms
Won't happen
Cameron is a pusillanimous shit
Hague has lost it
We will conmtinue to be hated and justifiably despised by the Arab world

Yep, I agree. They'd be speaking German now if it weren't for us. About time we got back to whooping indigenous "savages" and pinching their stuff.  |

Nay,
I can see a few flaws to your invasion plans. Firstly, as we've now retired HMS Ark Royal, we've got to arrange to borrow an aircraft carrier from our French friends across the water so that those two rusty Tornadoes can get in the air; then there is the problem of getting Ryanair to loan us a couple of pilots, and finally as we've exported all our bombs to our mate Gadaffi, we'd have to get his permission to buy a couple back!
And that's before the politicians start debating the issue!

And that's before the politicians start debating the issue! P Details, details! We would never have had an Empire with people like you in charge , indeed we would still be debating whether to biold a sewerage system for London. Ryanair would be no good. They would charge the troops extra for carrying guns |

But at last the US has agreed. Not quite what I suggested, but a compromise |
