Thread: 'Victory' in Tripoli, Libya. A big lie?

what the world is witnessing is the rape of Libya by a syndicate of imperialist powers determined to lay hold of its oil wealth and turn its territory into a neo-colonial base of operations for further interventions throughout the Middle East and North Africa.

Looks like straight out of Soviet propaganda...
My country is part of that "imperialist powers" (NATO) too - can't wait to get a cut of loot.

Why Russian? Did Latvian newspapers say something completely different that time?

Of course not - those who did were quickly silenced by chekists.

.National Composition of NATO Strike Sorties in Libya | Atlantic Council

"NATO discloses each day the total number of collective sorties flown in the previous 24 hours and the total of all sorties since the start of OUP, but it does not break it down into national contributions. Such national details can only be found sporadically and from different sources. National levels of strike sorties flown have fluctuated since NATO took over military operations in Libya on March 31, 2011. The following information matches each country’s most recent number of strike sorties to the number of total strike sorties by that date.
France: 33%, approximately 2,225 strike sorties (out of 6,745 total sorties by August 4)
US: 16%, 801 strike sorties, (out of 5,005 strike sorties by June 30)
Denmark: 11%, dropped 705 bombs (out of the 7,079 missions by August 11)
Britain: 10%, 700 strike sorties (out of 7,223 total sorties by August 15)
Canada: 10%, approximately 324 strike sorties (based on 3,175 NATO strike sorties by May 25)
Italy: 10% (Not applicable until April 27 when Italy committed 4 Tornados for strike sorties)
Norway: 10%, 596 strike sorties (out of the 6,125 missions by August 1, no longer active)
Belgium: 8^th ally participating in combat missions, no public data available on number of strike sorties (photo: USAF)"

Tens of thousands of sorties, thousands of strike sorties/bombs. Many different targets, including reports of civilian buildings and infrastructure. Many civilian deaths. Many more to come. Civilian targets prove that this is not intervention, but an illegal war.

I am not a Libyan. I can not take sides in the internal affairs of the Libyans. Nato are responsible for killing more and will kill more innocent Libyans by the time this is over, than is claimed that Qaddafi killed. I am against this.

You are for it. You complain about foreign occupiers of your country and then applaud this.
