Senate 'Won't Back Libya Pull Out'

The Hillem> reports:<

Senate Armed Services Committee Chairman Carl Levin (D-Mich.) on Friday said he doubts a majority of senators would vote to end U.S. participation in the Libyan military campaign.

“I think there’s not a clear sentiment here to stop our support of the Libyan operation, ” Levin told reporters after getting a classified briefing on the operation from Pentagon officials. “I don’t think there’s a majority view to that effect, or anything close to it.”

Levin called predicting whether the Senate would take up a resolution on the Libya operation “unpredictable,” noting senators have “plenty of opportunity” to introduce such measures.
