Why Libya Was Attacked - by Stephen Lendman
NATO wants to colonize, occupy and plunder Libya.
Obama's March 28, 2011 address at the National Defense University was true to form. It reeked of duplicity, hypocrisy, and ball-faced lies, saying:
"For generations, the United States of America has played a unique role as an anchor of global security and as an advocate for human freedom.""....(W)e are reluctant to use force to solve the world's many challenges."
"But when our interests and values are at stake, we have a responsibility to act. That's what happened in Libya...."
For decades, Libya was "ruled by a tyrant....He has denied his people freedom, exploited their wealth, murdered opponents at home and abroad, and terrorized people around the world - including Americans who were killed by Libyan agents.">/blockquote>
Substitute Washington for Libya and he got it right. America is a rogue terror state, a menacing plague on humanity.
Democratic values, human and civil rights, and rule of law principles are non-starters.
