Best send out the Regiment to protect the aircrew then!
Off thread but note from the Press that Italy has given temporary residency to large numbers of Tunisian refugees who crossed the Med. That allowed them free travel within the EU especially within the Schengen Passport Free countries. As a result France has been stopping trains at it's border with Italy!
The main reason why Italy is against bombing the Colonel/Regime change is concern at the thought of refugees and that meantime he might just do a Castro and dump all his malcontents on them!
