WASHINGTON (AFP) - US and British forces have fired at least 110 Tomahawk cruise missiles into Libya against Moamer Kadhafi's air defense sites, a top US military officer said Saturday.

Vice Admiral William Gortney told reporters that "earlier this afternoon over 110 Tomahawk cruise missiles fired from both US and British ships and submarines struck more than 20 integrated air defense systems and other air defense facilities ashore."

The first missile struck at 1900 GMT following air strikes carried out earlier by French warplanes, said Gortney, director of the US joint staff.

"It's a first phase of a multi-phase operation," he said.

One British submarine joined with other US warships in the missile attack, he added.

"Because it is night over there, it will be some time before we have a complete picture of the success of these strikes," the admiral said.

It's just so much easier to do the bankers' bidding when it is night-time and the targets faces can't be identified from so far away as the missile launchers are.

Good time to buy stock on those companies that makes all those missiles.......think of about HOW MANY has been used up till now and how many more will be used in the future AND MORE if we go against Iran AND STILL MANY MORE if we go into WWIII.............so, that stock will work as a ATM machine, always giving out cash..........and who owns the companies? The Pentagon? or.........you know who.

The global elite are using American and NATO military to set the final stage for Armageddon.

Did I ever say that Obama is a liar? Like his anti-war campaign speeches?

Even worse, the silence is deafening from the "Anti-war/Peace" movement that was so vocal with GWB.

I wonder how many tons of depleted uranium from spent fuel rods those tomahawk missiles carried?

Think of the cost savings in shipping alone.

Sorry, it's disgusting, I know...

Don't forget, after the bombing global bankers then can create from nothing 2 billion to lend the new ruler for 3 billion in oil to pay the same Mil-Gov complex that built the missiles, 1.5 billion to replace 1 billion of destroyed Libyan military equipment.
