I agree. The reason NATO stepped in here, and it was a very vital reason, was that aside from a single command by the U.S., NATO was probably the only organization that could provide the command and control function and make that happen between multilateral parties, so I'm not taking away from NATO's role.
One of the concerns is about burden sharing. I know it comes up because it seems sometimes that certain nations contribute more than others, but again that's the NATO pact, particularly when we're outside the area of article 5. That would be a very different set-up, and maybe you can comment on that. But some of the NATO members in the Libya mission, in my view, acted, spoke, and talked up beyond the actual mandate. There was a lot of talk about regime change in Libya, which was not part of the UN Security Council role, of course.
How do you see NATO being able to control its members, in particular the contributors, in a situation perhaps like Libya where the protection of civilians can be defined in very many ways? I'm not suggesting that you went beyond the legal limits, but just because you can do something doesn't mean you should. So how is NATO as a body able to control the perhaps more aggressive members in a particular mission like Libya?
