Libya: Coalition bombing may be in breach of UN resolution's legal limits

Legal expert warns that forces led by Britain, France and the US face 'a moment of danger' in justifying latest strikes

...excerpt

"When the Russians say you can't intervene in civil war to assist the rebel side they are right, because that is international law . But the security council resolution trumps that. The resolution does not say protect civilians from attack, but protect them from the threat of attack, so as long as the Libyan government maintains a fighting force and is maintaining a forcible stance then those forces are legitimate targets. The authorisation to use force is clear-cut. The question is how far you go. The answer for me is far down the line."
