Guardian criticism

Libya is another case of selective vigilantism by the west. I'm not sure where this fits in, but it is a viewpoint that needs discussion. Sandy Harris 04:00, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

My thought was that this article should primarily deal with the nature of the operation, and link both to Libya and perhaps Western policy towards Libya, Arab Spring, and Western policy toward humanitarian crises as principally political rather than military articles. This isn't a matter of trying to hide those issues, but a case of separating means from ends in articles. The same article, in my view, isn't the place to have detailed lists of ships but also of national positions. Howard C. Berkowitz 05:43, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
Sandy, I started Arab Spring, which references the Guardian article — needs much expansion. Howard C. Berkowitz 13:25, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
