The article says they don't really have any bullets and/or mags for alot if the guns

They are getting their asses kicked.

I'd love the rebels to win, but any rebel group that can't "liberate" an airfield, tank depot, or armory (esprecialy the armory) in the first day deserves to lose. They don't have to hold the place, just take what you can and wreck the rest.

Well, the president said we're in this until Gaddafi is out. So if the rebels are getting their asses kicked, and president wants to follow through, you can see where this is going.

On the plus side, we already have lots of equipment in the region.

Chris Hondros' final pictures were published. It looks like they're mainly just using AKs for actually fighting, which makes sense. There's also an FAL in one of the photos.

Ghadaffi is bad but the rebels may not be better, there is no one rebel movememnt though. One leader says "we want peace and democracy" another says "we need sharia law" then anopther says "society needs to be more tribal."

Remember when the rebels took british soldiers hostage? Bad move.
