Arab League endorses Libyan no-fly zone‏

The Arab League on Saturday called on the United Nations Security Council to impose a no-fly zone over Libya. The move could have a significant impact on U.S. and European deliberations over how to respond to the conflict that has erupted in recent weeks as rebels have seized half of Libya, and Col. Moammar Gaddafi's security forces have struck back with massive firepower. NATO has said that an Arab endorsement of the no-fly zone was a precondition for taking such action.
