I am not familiar with this case. I understand that Ghaddafi was somehow involved in that incident but... Its somehow irrelevant. The people went out on the streets to demonstrate not worriying about Lockerbie. Im sure that most of them dont even know what that is.
Its sad that when people actually wake up and do something, other people try to dumb them down. I mean why is it so hard for the western society to accept that these changes are actually positive and pure? Because these things dont come from America or Europe? Im disapointed with humanity. I mean, what would happen if the Americans would wake up and demonstrate massively everywhere? Do you think that people from other countries would say "Ahh... thats just the CIA or whatever. Thats bullshit, its not real demonstrations". That would suck wouldnt it?
Ghaddafi's family is a big tribe and they are basically armed. Its a millitia. If they are so good for the people, then why burn down a prison section with 25-50 prisoners inside? Just so they wont get away? Political prisoners, most of them youngsters... The reality is very grim and i am more than happy that the Lybian people decided to take no more. I am somewhat unhappy that people all over keep doubting those revolutions.
Sure, Nato has interests. The US has interests and everybody does. But, remember that it took the NATO quite a long time to intervene in Lybia. People were already fighting the oppressive regime before NATO decided to help. NATO did not free Lybia, they helped the rebel forces win the war. They might have won anyway but it might have took them a few years. So yes, maybe for once, the US and NATO are doing something good? Maybe the US supported this kind of move because they know that allot of people in the streets of the US actually want that. and that it will give the current running office some popularity...
Not every move made by the allied forces is a conspiracy to take over the oil and the riches...
(Im not talking directly to anyone here... I just had to write down whats on my mind).
Peace.
