There isn't many modern interventions that ended up being a good idea.

There isnt any war that ended up being 'all cool baby'.

Well, it's never been 'no fly zone' only, it was 'all measures to protect civilians' France been subtle enough for it. Tongue

All the bombing could fall under it since it was destructing the offensive regime means.

Where it went beyond the point it's when France sent all its beautiful weapons to guys in Zintan, which later made the way to Tripoli, but at one point, u can understand they just wanted all of this to end quickly, thus actively helping to oust the bad drama queen of the place.

Politically, was dealt the vest they could I guess, with the way the transitional gvt tried to work since the beginning of the intervention.

Then, u can't create a reality, u deal with what u have, and so went the aftermath.

Strongly supported, and apparently I'm still defending.

On a wider point, more succesful western intervention (UK in Sierra Leone in 1999, France in Mali at the moment) has been based on taking the time to actually understand the local reality.

Hmm, or just based on something still less thought than Lybia since the decision been taken within mins based off an attack possibly leading to a raid toward the capital of the country.

Then yeah, the colonial post colonial habits helped to the 'understanding.

That being said I supported that one too, and would also call it rather successful, yeah.
