Ummm, not yet. Since the media coverage is mostly western biased, we've yet to see Gadhafi's facebook page on "greatest hits" the rebels have scored.. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I'm guessing that to aim it , you close one eye and look down the side,add a little kentucky windage and let her rip! you then go and apologize to the village 2 miles past what you were shooting at. Uh,Sorry. go get a tent from the U.N.
