U.S. Tomahawk Cruise Missiles Hit Targets in Libya
U.S., Allies Begin Action to Enforce U.N. Resolution Against Moammar
Gadhafi

U.S. military officials have confirmed the first American tomahawk
cruise missiles have been fired at targets inside Libya from ships in
the Mediterranean Sea.
The move is the first direct U.S. involvement in the international
operation mobilizing to stop Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi's attacks
on opposition strongholds and enforce a U.N.-backed no-fly zone.
Obama read "My Pet Goat" for two weeks while waiting for

Obama got pressured into doing this much, because three Women told

to senior administration officials speaking only on condition of
anonymity. Ms. Power is a former journalist and human rights advocate;
Ms. Rice was an Africa adviser to President Clinton when the United
States failed to intervene to stop the Rwanda genocide, which Mr.
Clinton has called his biggest regret.
Now, the three women were pushing for American intervention...."
