The US hit the Islamic state in Syria

The appeal of the Libyan government recognized by the international community, to the United States for military aid against the formation of an Islamic state in the Sirte was incorporated. US military planes bombed military targets of the caliphate present in the city of Benghazi, which has become the outpost of the Islamic state in Libya. The establishment of Islamic fundamentalists in the center of the Libyan country was a consequence of the profound instability that has plunged the country after the end of Colonel Gaddafi; In fact, Libya currently has three Governments which still can not find a synthesis to arrive at an agreement. In the civil war in the country, with linked militias, as well as to various governments, also criminal groups, a sort of all against all, the Islamic state has made a space where exercise its sovereignty on the example of what happened Syria and Iraq, creating a military force made up of both Libyan men, who for foreign fighters coming, for the most part, from the Arab countries of the Southern Mediterranean strip. This has created considerable concern both in neighboring countries, about the possible consequences of the return of the caliphate militiamen in their country of origin, both in the US itself, they see increasing the share of foreign fighters present within the Islamic state forces. Although this reason is not the one that determined the intervention, he will have contributed in direct American intervention reasons, which are mainly identified, however, the need to limit the action of the Islamic state in Libya, at the same time ' advanced in Iraq and Syria. But it is not secondary nor the attempt to stabilize the Libyan area, such as the prevention of a potential creation of an Islamic extremist base located on opposite coasts to Europe. The US military action served as support for the Libyan formations fighting against those of the Islamic state, in a war that has lasted a long time. The mode of action plan to target specific objectives, which can weaken the military capacity of the caliphate in Libya and should be characterized by a high degree of precision to avoid to the greatest extent possible any fallout on the civilian population. Close coordination with the Libyan government and its own direct request to the White House, is a kind of authorization for military action in foreign territory, which should put away from the Washington diplomatic repercussions. This action of the US air forces in Libya is not an absolute novelty, the new element is that with earlier projects were used drones, but now you have returned to carry out the bombings with unmanned aircraft, which has not happened in two years this way. The military action, which was authorized by Obama, is part of the Presidential doctrine, which tries to avoid the involvement of American troops on the ground and to work alongside the sky local military bodies engaged in ground operations; in fact, in Libya, it would be signaled the presence of special forces belonging to Western countries engaged on the ground, both in the material support function to the Libyan forces in the fighting, and with training functions. Even in these cases it is not too broad but limited commitment to the achievement of strategic objectives to help the forces of Libya in the conflict against the caliphate. For the United States, but also for the European nations has become a priority that the Islamic state is defeated in Libya, because this is the essential factor to enable the country to achieve the conditions necessary to try to have an internal balance between the various factions and thus give stability and continuity of government. In spite of world opinion will be more focused on Middle Eastern affairs, the importance that Libya plays in the Mediterranean chessboard appears huge, especially when viewed in relation to the consequences of the elements within it that can be reflected in European countries including the more the question of immigration, as energy supply and the possible terrorist contamination on Western societies. Return the Libyan issue to international attention, not only from the diplomatic point of view, but also from the military, it means doing a prevention work required that has been postponed for too long.
