Is the Libyan War going well?

So it seems like victory is nigh. Afterall the rebels have taken Tripoli and Kaddafi's gone into hiding (whether he's hiding in a spider hole near his hometown or heading for a new mansion in Pakistan only time will tell).

But is the war really almost over? Is it going well. Well I'll tell you what I overheard from a conversation of two army captains stationed near the border.

Captain #1: We've struck a bit of luck at last. Got something Washington wants.

Captain #2: Washington wants it, eh. What is d'you think. What's the danger in a thing like that?

C1: Don't know till we've had a look

C2: So they haven't told you what to expect? They don't tell us all they know, do they? Not by half. But they can make mistakes, even the Top Ones can.

C1:'They may, but they've got eyes and ears everywhere; some among my lot, as like as not. But there's no doubt about it, they're troubled about something. TheSpec Opsdown below are, by your account; and Washington is too. Something nearly slipped

C2: Nearly, you say

C1: All right, we'll talk about that later.

A few minutes later

C2: But the war's on now and when that's over things may be easier.

C1: It's going well they say

C2: They would. We'll see. But don't count on it. I'm not easy in my mind. Like I said the big bosses, even the biggest can make mistakes. Something nearly slipped, something has slipped! And we've got to look out! When we're you ordered out?

C1: About an hour ago. I got a message that said that spies were feared by the border.

C2: Bad Business. Our border patrols were uneasy two days ago, that I know. But my patrol wasn't ordered out for another day, nor any message sent toWashington either: owing to the Earthquake and the fall of Tripoli, and all that. And then they couldn't getWashington to pay attention for a good while, I'm told.'

C1: The President was busy elsewhere. Big things going on in the northeast they say.

C2: I daresay. But in the meantimeenemies have gotten past the border!A nd what were you up to? You're supposed to keep watch, aren't you, special orders or no? What are you for?'

C1: That's enough don't try to teach me my job!

Are you quoting some video game dialogue or something along those lines? Otherwise I have no idea about what you are saying.

Question, where did you overhear this/how did you write it down verbatim? Or is this dialogue from a game/movie/something?

France 2003: Oh those evil imperialistic Americans getting involved in wars they have no business in! No Blood for Oil

France 2011: Let's blast Libya. That Kaddafi is an evil doer who must be removed. What's taking those cowardly American's so long to get involved? they're part of NATO they better start doing their part!

I keep feeling that TC is like cleverbot. The words are there, but there seems to be a major cognitive disconnect in between the actual topic and the words written. (is that against the ToU?)

here is more dialogue I overheardbetween another soldier and a CIA tracker with high tech tracking equipment

Soldier:Not much use are you, you little snufflers? I reckon eyes are better than your fancy equipment

Tracker: Then what have you seen with them? you don't even know what you're looking for

Soldier: Who's fault is that?'Not mine. That comes from Higher Up. First they say it's a great warrior with high tech gear, then it's a sort of midget, then it must be a pack of rebel double-agents; or maybe it's all the lot together.'

Tracker: 'They've lost their heads, that's what it is. And some of the bosses are going to lose their skins too, I guess, if what I hear is true: Gitmo raided and all, and hundreds of your lads done in, and prisoner got away. If that's the way you fighters go on, small wonder there's bad news from the battles.'

Soldier: Who says there's bad news?

Tracker: 'Ar! Who says there isn't?

Soldier: That's cursed tea-party talk!

Tracker: All right, all right. I'll say no more and go on thinking.

TC, do you think that Libya will grant the right to life to unborn children? Could this be the first truly just country in the 21st century? I haven't seen any news on this. Just an idea for your next topic, since this one didn't pan out so well.

While several red states have lost jobs, most blue states such as Illinois and Chicago have created thousands of jobs. Obama has created at least 5 million jobs and the stock market just shot up by 50,000 points.

Come to think of it, I can't think of any head of state or leader of a nation who was killed in action during a war by the enemy. At least not in the course of modern warfare.

It's going great....for OUR government. This whole thing is just a puppet show anyway. Syria will follow suit, as well as other surrounding countries so that we can create a pipeline without these countries having to get a cut of the $$$.
