Well really now, This has been obvious from the git go; Arab countries have cried out for America and other countries to come to the aid of the Libyan rebellion.
But not one Arab country has stepped up in any way to help out!
So typical of Muslim countries.
So in comes the Coalition of the willing, and where are the Arab countries now sitting around bitching over what we are doing!
This is why I have been saying we should let them take care of Libya themselves.

As America's NATO allies shoulder a greater share of the air war in Libya, the Arab countries that urged the U.N. Security Council to impose a no-fly zone are missing from the action.
Except for the small Persian Gulf nation of Qatar, which is expected to start flying air patrols over Libya by this weekend, no other members of the 22-member Arab League have so far publicly committed to taking an active role. The U.S. has sold many of these countries, including Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, billions of dollars in sophisticated military gear over the past decade to help counter Iran's power in the region.
Nearly a week into the campaign to prevent Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi's forces from attacking civilians, the United States increased the pressure on its NATO allies to take command of the campaign, suggesting the U.S. might even step away from its leadership role in a few days, even with the conflict's outcome in doubt.
