Headline: Libya: Gaddafi removal 'risks power vacuum' Daily Telegraph (UK)
The quote is from Moussa Ibrahim, Gaddafi spokesman. At least someone said it.
THOUGHT: If the U.N., the U.S. and the EU can decide which heads of state should "go," what precludes others from deciding that the heads of the U.N., the U.S. or the EU should go by any means necessary?
Confused Thinking or Opportunism?
From the Daily Telegraph (UK): Official figures show that since 2009, Britain approved export licences worth £2.3billion to 16 states over a 21-month period. Including the export of "sniper rifles, bullets, tear gas and other ‘crowd control’ ammunition to Tripoli shortly before the murderous dictator ordered his military to crush a pro-democracy uprising."
"Military export licenses to Libya alone since the start of 2009 totalled £61.3million, according to Department for Business figures." Also arms licenses totalling £1.7billion to Saudi Arabia, £20.4million to Egypt, £276.9million to Algeria and £52.8million to the United Arab Emirates.
