No-fly zone in Syria being implemented right now?

[devil21]

Something to watch.
Reports from various twitters, forums, etc are arising that a Damascus military airport has been bombed from the air in the last few hours. Hopefully (for lack of better word) it's just a car bomb and not the start of WW3.

A powerful explosion has gone off at a military airport on the outskirts of the Syrian capital Damascus, according to witness reports and local media.

State-owned al-Ikhbariya Television said the explosion "resulted from an attempt to target the Mezze military airport." It has been relating witness testimonies of the blast that was heard throughout most of western Damascus on Sunday.

It took place in the Mezzeh district that is also home to several embassies.

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights claims that approximately 20 of President Bashar Assad's forces have either been killed or wounded.

They reported the source of the blast to be a car bomb detonated at a checkpoint near the airport, which also serves as one of the major government elite force bases. It is often used for transporting supplies and performing military operations against rebels, as well as being a private airport for the Assad family.

Video footage captured by witnesses allegedly showed smoke and flames rising from the area, as ambulances were seen rushing to the scene.

To enforce a no-fly zone.. of course they have to bomb military airports and anti-aircraft installations. pretty much a declaration of war.

yay, Syria can look forward to car bombs going off every other day now just like Iraq. They're going to free the fuck out of that place and bring loads of peace

I don't remember Congress ever declaring war. (I have read stories about it in history books, though.)

Cinnabon in Tripoli as Libya Opens Up to Foreign Business


After 42 years, the country formerly known as the Great Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriya is getting its first taste of consumer capitalism in an unlikely form: sweet, sticky cinnamon rolls. Cinnabon, the Atlanta-based bakery chain, is at the vanguard of a potential business boom in the North African country, which deposed dictator Muammar Qaddafi last year in a bloody civil war. In July the unit of Focus Brands became the first U.S. franchise to open since the revolution, with a two-level Tripoli outlet. It’s become a popular destination in a city with few diversions for residents...more

Obama speaking right now in Belfast. It's looking like a democracy spreading speech. Lots about seeking peace and scattered shores of conflicts. Syria is on.

He's comparing Northern Ireland's past terrorism to...something....but not saying Syria directly. Absorbing pain. Take responsibility for justice. United community. Economy tie in with "pain for some". See ourselves in one another otherwise discourages cooperation. Peace is about attitudes.

I can't go on typing this. He's pushing Syria intervention without ever saying the name.

Obama is just like Clueless Harper, and David Cameron he was saying about Syria without mentioning its name? stupid.
