No comment on Libya

I have a self-imposed "no foreign affairs discussions" policy here.

But I am tempted to give my thoughts on Libya. After all, Obama says it is not a war. Congress never voted on it. So maybe it is not a foreign policy issue, something I avoid writing about. Maybe it is more of an extraterritorial action- like the Fish and Wildlife Service conducting a survey of an abandoned guano island. Or the National Science Foundation drilling ice bores in Antarctica.

I think to be safe I will pass on commenting though. But I will remark that I am watching closely, and have an opinion, and hope for peace for everyone, everyplace.
