Libyan relief effort feared guise for ground invasion

April 19, 2011 10:02

The EU has a plan to send up to 1,000 troops to Libya to convoy humanitarian aid. The UN is far from keen, saying it may only go ahead as a “last resort”. Russia has voiced concern that Europe plans an invasion under the guise of a relief effort.

They lie about NATO expansion, they lie about WMD, They lie about Kosovo, they lie about soldiers protecting humanitarian convoys, and do you see the pattern? Now let’s throw in this one – missile defence is not aimed at Russia! (now stop laughing) Yes it is always good to show the west comes with fine words and evil deeds, but we need to be careful that we don’t become an example ourselves to further demonstrate the west’s habitual lies. Of course the west is stuck in a Libyan Lobster pot of their own making, they are stuck with Al Qaeda calling in air strikes for them to obey and stuck with no ability to get the oil that they are fighting for out. So out comes two things; first the novel humanitarian protection that protects oil shipments and anything else to provoke an attack, so that they can engage in an all out ground operation, and then secondly the artistic phrase of military advisers helping the opposition fight the government, known more usually as terrorists and mercenaries or at best direct illegal intervention in a civil war. Really the west has for far too long got literally away with murder, colonial murder, they even treated the Arab league with contempt this time, openly lying to them, and then in true colonial fashion casting them aside like a used dish cloth. But what will be interesting in this case, is can Africa win as a people. After all the European colonialists raped Africa and sit in comfort based largely upon that now. So now will the African people be able to cross to their rightful place and take their just reparation by enjoying the fruits of the EU that are based largely upon the suffering of their caged and oppressed African forefathers, inflicted by the smiling privileged colonial classes that still exist to this day in the west. The African people unleashed on a march to Europe, could be an unstoppable army for economic justice.

If Russia Federation takes a lead on Libya, I am pretty sure that PRC will support any solutions to solve this crisis in Northern Africa or Western Asia. Make sure to ask for the leadership chinese to help to solve the crisis that people of Libya faces today.

Nationalism in Northern Africa has got to go, it just produces headaches. Real Democracy will install mediators, the job of the elected mediator will be to help keep peace among the various tribes. Outside investors will be welcome in this new order, no nationalistic warlord will stand in their way.

Why Moscow is acting so ambivalently? The aim of NATO ground invasion is simple and clear: the rebels want to break up the country and NATO troops will give them the chance to do just that. If Russia does not want the break up of Libya—then it needs to be much clearer than this! This will end badly because the civil war will end and spread to all of North Africa, Sudan and the rest of the continent. The aim for NATO is give the area with the oil to friendly rebels- just as the U.S did in Iraq.
