The United States may consider sending troops into Libya with a possible international ground force that could aid the rebels, according to the general who led the military mission until NATO took over.
Army Gen. Carter Ham also told lawmakers Thursday that added American participation would not be ideal, and ground troops could erode the international coalition and make it more difficult to get Arab support for operations in Libya.
Ham said the operation was largely stalemated now and was more likely to remain that way since America has transferred control to NATO.
Good.

A spokesperson for UNICEF said the organization has “reliable and consistent reports of children being among the people targeted by snipers in Misrata.” Gaddafi has the blood of children on his hands. His troops are committing war crimes. It is horrific that Gaddafi has had control of Libya for so long. When will his reign of terror end?
