    A Britain, France and Italy diplomatic and economic quagmire. USA uncommitted.

    Lies lies and lies, the situation in Libya is in fact not even close to a civil war, and NATO airstrikes has united the Tribal population around Gaddafi like never before. Germany and most European countries wisely sat out this one.

    Yea, it's pretty sad that they ed up a great opportunity to rape the Gaddafi regime and tear it down. All we're seeing on the news is the rebels ing about needing more help. Not even sure why France and Britain were butthurt enough to keep poking at Libya without enough force to do anything. Pretty annoying tbh.

    Uncommitted don't mean they are not providing logistic support. NATO lost the war in Libya and Gates was crying like a little girl over how Europe should spend their money, but i admit without the USA providing logistics and their irrational ambition of trying to keep NATO relevant, they pushed to support these war efforts not in their economic interest at all. I agree having no ground troops do not mean it's not an act of war, NATO know full well the moment they send troops on the ground they will get up the ass, 1.5 million in Tripoli and another 2 million more armed men outside Tripoli, is restless at having to watch their country bombed from the skies above and wanting to kill them on the ground. NATO dirty tactics as usual, try to stir up tribal violence or somehow bribe those tribes outside of Tripoli to revolt like their rebel puppets, another terrible gamble, another money down the drain it seems. America yea

    Who are these rebels anyway?

    Hear so little about who they actually are, and what they really wish to do.

    This is interesting too:

    Russian Says No Proof of Air Strikes in Libya…

    First paragraph:
    Russia Today has released a video that we all know has the backing of the Kremlin. This video is making it clear that the Western propaganda about Air strikes on the Libyan people by Gaddafi just might be just that! Propaganda…

    The Truth About Libya
    By Stephen Goodson
    4-1-11
    Colonel Muammar Gadaffi is frequently referred to in the media as a "mad dictator" and "bloody tyrant", but do these allegations accord with the facts? Libya consists of over 15O tribes, with the two main groups, the Meghabra living in Tripolitania in the west and the Wafallah living in Cyrenaica in the east. Previous attempts to unite these tribes by the Turkish (1855-1911) and ltalian {1911-43) colonial rulers failed and the country was split in two for administrative purposes. Oil was discovered in Libya in 1959, but King ldris of the Senussi tribe allowed most of the oil profits to be siphoned into the coffers of the oil companies. The coup d'etat on 1 September 1969 led by Colonel Gadaffi had countrywide support. He subsequently married a woman from the royal Barqa tribe and adroitly unified the nation. By retaining Libya's oil wealth for the benefit of all its people, Gadaffi had created a socialist paradise. There is no unemployment, Libya has the highest GDP in .Africa, less than 5% of the population is classified as poor and it has fewer people living below the poverty datum line than for example in Holland. Life expectancy is 75 years and is the highest in Africa and I0% above the world average. With the exception of the nomadic Bedouin and Tuareg tribes, most Libyan families possess a house and a car. There is free health care and education and not surprisingly Libya has a literacy rate of 82%. Last year Gadaffi distributed $500 to each man, woman and child (population 6.5 million). Libya has a tolerable human rights record and stands at 61 on the International Incarceration Index, comparable with countries in central Europe (the lower the rating, the lower the standing - the USA occupies the no.1 spot!). There is hardly any crime and only rebels and traitors are dealt with harshly. Anyone who has read Gadaffi's little Green Book will realize that he is a thoughtful and enlightened leader. Libya has been accused of having committed numerous acts of terrorism in the past, but many of these have been perpetrated by foreign intelligence agencies as false flag operations - the Lockerbie bombing being a prime example. The CIA and MI6 and their frontmen have been stoking up dissent in the east of the country for almost 30 years. Libya produces exceptionally high quality light crude oil and its production cost of $1 a barrel, compared to the current price of $115, is the lowest in the world. Riba (usury) is not permitted. The Central bank of Libya is a wholly-owned by the Libyan Government and is run as a state bank, issuing all government loans free of interest. This is in contrast to the exploitative fractional reserve banking system of the West. The no-fly zone and the bombing of Libya have nothing to do with the protection of civilians. It is an act of war Luck_The_Fakers_ a blatant and crude attempt by the oil corporations and international bankers to steal the wealth of Libya.

    I believe what the article says until it goes into the "False Flag" concept. There is no evidence at all. false style operation wasn't used. It is just limited to lies and deceit.

    I knew something was fishy from day one. What the Russians say make sense. After all, there is no evidence. Only allegations of Gaddafi's alleged crimes.

    I never believed he was guilty of anything other than trying to stop what could be anything from between armed thugs to insurrection. Our laws don't apply to a sovereign nation. He may be a dictator, but Libya fairs very well as nations with dictators go.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moussa_Ibrahim

    Moussa Ibrahim (Arabic: موسى إبراهيم‎ ; romanized also as Mussa and Musa) is a Libyan political figure, serving as Libyan Minister of Information and the official spokesman for Muammar Gaddafi as at the end of March 2011. He came to general international attention during the 2011 Libyan civil war.

    So you're taking Libyan counterpart of Baghdad Bob at his word?

    I can see how an authoritarian like WC would actively defend someone like Gaddafi.

    Plus stating that you prefer the government not to spend money in such an war is a good enough reason on it's own.
