Not sure how I feel about this considering who Kaddafi is and the things he's done, but this would have certainly been much more effective two weeks ago.  What it likely means is that there are going to have to be boots on the ground to enforce this and an enhanced potential for terrorist attacks in Western nations (read about some of Kaddafi's threats to the West in the above links).  Not what the world needs considering the ongoing problems in Japan...  Buckle up!
