Cynthia McKinny - Libya is Being Destroyed 1/2: http://youtu.be/nOiv7UhHowA via @youtube
In the words of Former US Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney:
"The sad fact, however, is that it is the Libyans
themselves, who have been insulted, terrorized, lynched, and murdered as
a result of the press reports that hyper-sensationalized this base
ignorance. Who will be held accountable for the lives lost in the
bloodletting frenzy unleashed as a result of these lies?
Which brings me back to the lady's question: why is
this happening? Honestly, I could not give her the educated reasoned
response that she was looking for. In my view the international public
is struggling to answer "Why?".
What we do know, and what is quite clear, is this: what I experienced last night is no "humanitarian intervention."
Many suspect it is about all the oil under Libya.
Call me skeptical but I have to wonder why the combined armed sea, land
and air forces of NATO and the US costing billions of dollars are being
arraigned against a relatively small North African country and we're
expected to believe its in the defense of democracy.
What I have seen in long lines to get fuel is not
"humanitarian intervention." Refusal to allow purchases of medicine for
the hospitals is not "humanitarian intervention." What is most sad is
that I cannot give a cogent explanation of why to people now terrified
by NATO's bombs, but it is transparently clear now that NATO has
exceeded its mandate, lied about its intentions, is guilty of
extra-judicial killings--all in the name of "humanitarian intervention."
Where is the Congress as the President exceeds his war-making
authority? Where is the "Conscience of the Congress?"
For those of who disagree with Dick Cheney's warning
to us to prepare for war for the next generation, please support any one
who will stop this madness. Please organize and then vote for peace.
People around the world need us to stand up and speak out for ourselves
and them because Iran and Venezuela are also in the cross-hairs. Libyans
don't need NATO helicopter gunships, smart bombs, cruise missiles, and
depleted uranium to settle their differences. NATO's "humanitarian
intervention" needs to be exposed for what it is with the bright,
shining light of the truth.
As dusk descends on Tripoli, let me prepare myself with the local civilian population for some more NATO humanitarianism.
Stop bombing Africa and the poor of the world!"

Mideast expert Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya says that US wants to appropriate Libyan oil, and that operations have already begun.
"Foreign intervention can only exasperate the problem
in Libya. It cannot help it in any way," he declared. "As a matter of
fact, the foreign intervention has already begun. The French, the US and
the British have already sent so-called humanitarian aid to Benghazi,
but they have also sent military advisers and Special Forces. This means
that the operation has already begun."
