Description

Text reads 'No Fly Zone' but the 'No' has been crossed out and is replaced by 'Blow' making the text read 'Blow Fly Zone'. A large blow-fly with the face of Colonel Gaddafi flies above 'Libya' after having laid eggs that represent 'protracted war', 'civilian deaths', 'insurgents', and 'oil prices'. A huge fly swat representing the 'UN' is aimed at the blow-fly. Context - the decision by the UN to use air strikes to stop the advance of forces loyal to Muammar Gaddafi. A diplomat on the UN Security Council told the Associated Press that Washington's ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, said the goal should be expanded from creating a no-fly zone to protecting civilians. To do this, the international community must have all the necessary tools - including authorisation to use planes, troops or ships to stop attacks by Gaddafi's air, land and sea forces.
