our media really are incredible. as the libyan airforce bombards its own cities, and reports swirl that qaddafi has fled, etc, npr leads with wisconsin, then goes on to weather. who edits this crap? al jazeera is all over this stuff. truly i would urge an international military operation in this case and it needs to happen yesterday. anyone who has military resources that could be brought to bear and doesn't is complicit. berluconi and the italians are straight-up ill on this. i wish i could find a good link; al jazeera english reporting berlusconi's comment as being something like: i'm not really going to do or say anything against my buddy.
