The list of advocates for a no-fly zone is long: U.S. senators, prominent American commentators and foreign policy experts, counterparts in Europe France and Britain are drawing up a U.N. resolution authorizing a no-fly zone, rebel leaders in Libya and -- here's where Applebaum's column becomes a bit surreal -- Applebaum herself!
