Arab League Secretary General, Amr Mussa says, " What has happened in Libya differs from the goal of imposing a no-fly zone. What we want is protection of civilians and not bombing other civilians." Is he trying to be cute? A look at the history of Europe would have shown him that these are blood thirsty barbarians have a history of slaughter going back thousands of years. Apart from the two World Wars they used to have 30 years wars and even a 100 years war. Gaddafi was always a bogey man for them and of course Libya has oil. Mugabe has killed many more people and survives by abusing Britain in every speech he makes but who cares if there is nothing to loot. Arab countries wanted to feed Gaddafi to the killers hoping they could continue suppress their own people without interference. Did they expect that Cameron would be happy with his pilots roaming the skies of Libya? He wants to be a Margaret Thatcher or at least a Tony Blair and only warm, red Libyan blood on desert sands will appease his thirst. Small man with delusions of grandeur. As for the opponents of Gaddafi they should realise that his supporters will blame them for loss of life and a long civil war looks very likely. The criminals bombed the Serbs but have they been able to unite Bosnia? Only the presence of UN troops is keeping the two sides apart. When Saddam fled Iraqis were overjoyed and we remember the scenes of his statue being toppled and people hitting it with shoes. Well, guess what? His victor also had shoes thrown at him in Baghdad and Iraq remains a deeply divided country. If Gaddafi is wrong to kill Libyans then Britain and France are equally wrong.
