NATO no-fly zone into the Libyan military and diplomatic embarrassment of a full moon

No-fly zone by the UN Security Council resolution on Libya have been a whole month. Gaddafi's armored forces and air defense equipment, under the NATO air strikes despite the heavy losses, but the anti-government forces failed to take advantage. 
Libya stalemate fighting high, the rapid change of weather in western Libya plans to come to nothing. No-fly zone agreements, from the West's diplomatic victory, becoming the West's diplomatic embarrassment. 

March 17, the UN Security Council by 10 votes in favor, 5 abstentions adopted a resolution to establish no-fly zone in Libya, Libya, parties to the conflict and demanded an immediate ceasefire, to stop all attacks against civilians. 

However, the Security Council resolution is a "use all necessary means" word, so that the United States, Britain, France and other countries to proceed with air strikes. 

Just two days after U.S. and British air strikes law led to Libya, Gaddafi government forces find any moment, hurried retreat. 

Western countries, the United Nations to leave the back door air strikes, NATO can be described as smooth steadily in the military, foreign policy is so smooth. 

But over the past month, fighting has been reversed. Fighting on the ground, the anti-government forces besieged for nearly three weeks in Misurata has been no retreat back. 

Air strikes, the Gaddafi won the military essentials, scattered heavy-duty armed forces, NATO air strikes seem to have been misfiring. The original hope of quick victory in the NATO countries have to face the awkward reality. 

United States, "Washington Post" quoted the 16 NATO and U.S. officials said a series of NATO air strikes against Libya after more than precision-guided bombs are the same, if the U.S. does not give military support, difficult to sustain military operations. 

Unfavorable war, NATO faces internal disintegration. 13 of the Doha meeting, the Western countries open their differences, advocates step up attacks on British and French efforts, while Belgium is firmly opposed. 

No-fly zones and the limited effectiveness of air strikes, before the international community, the more embarrassing position of NATO, the Western countries, the tone began to loosen. Until the 17th of this month, French Defence Minister Long cover sour, said the war "may become a protracted war, as the case of Qaddafi and Libya is not entirely to be expected." 

Clearly, the development of the war far more than the West's psychological expectations, just a month, no-win agreement from becoming NATO's foreign diplomatic embarrassment. NATO, how decent end, has become the annoying problem.
