WHAT excuse can there possibly be for the continued terror attacks on Libya?
Despite the biased reporting of this blitz by the western media, it must be now obvious to all that the few Libyans advancing and retreating with the waves of airborne slaughter are not excuse enough for this blatant attempt at regime change – illegal under international law.
If the people of Libya genuinely seek the removal of their president, all well and good – but the intervention of NATO is consolidating support for Gaddafi as the bulk of the Libyan population unite against an aggressive imperialist war.
The real aims of NATO are to remove a major obstacle to the recolonisation of Africa and one more dissenting voice from OPEC.
In this, as usual, they have the full collaboration of the BBC.
