It is kind of disgusting to see how Libyan apparachiks from the Libyan diplomatic corps in the USA going on al-Jazeera and calling for a UN imposed no-fly zone over their country because of the alleged ‘genocide’ taking place there.
I have exactly zero love for that crazy buffoon Gadaffi, but his diplomats are even more spineless and hypocritical than him.
Still, the worst liars and hypocrites are – who else? – Western diplomats who claim to care about the bloodshed in Libya.
In all this mess, the only people I have respect for are the Libyan (Yemeni, Bahraini) people trying to get rid of their colonial masters.
Thank you for the insightful stand you are taking on Libya, because siding under the Anti-Socialist, and pro-Zionist political umbrella of the U.S.-British overseers will not bring the struggle of oppressed people greater prosperity nor closer to a truly human existence. I am sorry for the Libyan deaths, but my sense is the pro-western forces hope to bring Libya to its knees.
Gadaffi is neither cfrazy nor a bufoon:

This is not the gadaffi the media portays to us:
‘why has there been an absence of reporting on colonel Gadhafi’s social welfare schemes, which if anything have made Libyans lazy and not destitute?
Colonel Muammar Gathafi’s social and welfare programmes in Libya are far greater than those implemented in neighbouring countries. Modern infrastructures have sprung up in recent years which aim to attract investment and bring added wealth and sustainable development to the citizens of Libya; Gathafi’s literacy programme has seen universal education become reality and since he took power in 1969, the life expectancy of Libyan citizens has risen by twenty years while infant mortality has decreased sharply.
Gathafi represents the control of Libya’s resources by Libyans and for Libyans; literacy reached ten per cent of the population when he came to power. Today it is around 90 per cent. Women, today, have rights and can go to school and get a job. The standard of living is around 100 times greater than it was under the rule of King Idris I. The conclusion, therefore, is that Gathafi’s Libya is a different ball game from Tunisia and Egypt.
