The range of views among the 28 members of the NATO alliance is wide. Germany, Turkey and Poland opposed the Libya operation and are not involved in the air campaign.
I read this in the papers and am now puzzled.
It used to be, back when I was in a NATO organization, that all NATO nations had to vote "yes" to undertake military action.
If Turkey, Germany, and Poland voted NO, then the Alliance cannot task Admiral Locklear (Joint Forces Naples) and his subordinate commands with armed action.
The news may have it wrong, but more troubling to me is: has NATO changed its basic rulse?
