Libya, Hypocrisy and Betrayal by the United Nations

By Felicity Arbuthnot

Shame on France, shame on Britain and the US and a UN avowed: '... to save succeeding generations from the scourge of war. Every shattered body, every child maimed or blown to bits, every widow, widower, orphan, will have their name of those countries, and the UN, written in their blood in their place of death.

Washington and the Civilians of Libya

By Lawrence Davidson

It was Oscar Wilde who once said that 'the true hypocrite is the one who ceases to perceive his deception, the one who lies with sincerity.'

UK: LIBYA EMERGENCY PROTEST: HANDS OFF LIBYA:

Britain and the USA have bombed Libya with more than one hundred Tomahawk cruise missiles. These are not precision guided weapons but weapons of mass destruction that will create many civilian casualties in Libya.

Libyas No-Fly, No-Drive Zone

If Gaddafi refuses to obey a cease-fire order, the international coalition could agree on a hard strike against airfields and armored columns, troop barracks, military headquarters and other military facilities that already have been identified and targeted. A full-out strike might cost between $500 million and $1 billion, according to the CSBA analysis.

West overzealous on Libya

The overzealousness of certain Western powers like Britain, France and, as of late, the US, to interpret the resolution as an open-ended use of force, is worrisome.
