Some other ideas...what to do with Libya...

One idea is they send some "volunteers" to assist the Tanzanians. Not at all impossible and with Libya "neutral" in the larger conflict, till they cross the Kenyan frontier, there's probably little we could do about it. Once the shooting starts, Libya's going to be flattened. But a brigade of light troops, maybe a battalion of tanks and oh, I dunno, a squadron of Mig-23s or Mirages might do wonders for the air superiority situation...till the US arrives. It would really put the Kenyans on the backfoot early and the Soviets would be out very little. Not to mention, the Libyans have more equipment than they need. Selling some to Tanzania wouldn't be out of the question either....
