Money for Libya but not for us

No politician—especially those worried about the deficit—has said anything about the cost of the attack on Libya. According to the Navy and Wikipedia each Cruise missile costs about $600,000. According to Aviation Week, the US and the UK together have so far fired 120 missiles. That's a total of $72 million in missiles alone.

And do you think they are wasting money in a philantropic cause or investing to take advantage of the libian people´s oil resources?

When Israel bombs civilians in Lebanon or Palestina they do not create a no-flight zone.
