I thought we were already colonized! (By Chinese, as well!) I see ongoing colonization that comes with so much bribery and corruption of Africa's government officials. I became very aware of this about a decade ago when I heard that South Africa's flora had been sold to the US Corporate! Africa is sold off to the highest bidder continuously! I am African and an astute observer of what's going down on this continent.

jack l eich: I certainly second Christella's comment to you. When you figure it out -- if ever -- you will know why "America is going down the tubes". A hint is in your comment (if you change it a little): Read "three wars,no jobs,no money" as "three wars = no jobs,no money" :)

 

BTW: Have you considered joining the army or Xe...

What infuriates me is that here in the UK, we have a cruel, truly evil unelected Prime Minister, who when he took office in May 2010 has pushed NATO for what has happened in Libya. David Cameron is personally responsible for what is going on right now, with the over support of a right wing media, such as Channel 4 News and the BBC.

Jack I eich: YOU are an cold, ICY-HEART with no compassion.  5000 civilian people NATO just wiped  off the face of the earth. 15,000 are wounded with no medical facilities to help. Libya was a properous nation, from whom all peoples benefited--particularly Africa.---

and you just say "I DON'T CARE!"

Editor-in-Chief: GIOVANNI MARIA VIAN
Tipografia Vaticana - Editrice "L'Osservatore Romano"
00120 Vatican City

Editorial Office:
VERY URGENT!


TRUST ME ON THIS

In Tripoli, Western sniper-agents are shooting all pro-Gadhafi people.
Archbishop Martinelli is a known "friend" of al-Gadhafi, and his life is in danger.

Dr. Mussa Ibrahim was worried concerning all prominent people who are known to be pro-JAMAHIRIYA/GADHAFI.
He has expressed his worry.
 Our Pope has been silent over the 3000 massacred  and over 15,000  already severely wounded (without medical assistance) LIBYAN CIVILIANS, when normally he is the first to speak-up.
NATO has gone mad; and there are ground troops pouring in from the Mediterrannean from British, French, American and Qatari vessels. Not only is this against all international laws;
but reportedly NATO troops are  suffering casualties as they are sneaking in. No one in the West is supossed-to know this.

The  reporters of the ROXOS and a neighboring mosque are sealed in; as those who dare report the truth are being shot-at and killed.

CNN and Reuters agents, who are working really for the Western Axis have threatened all real Independent journalists who report the truth.
The fake reporters are sending in co-ordinates for NATO to bomb and for whom to shoot.

As I said, I am particularly worried concerning Archbishop Giovanni Martinelli. (IS THIS WHY THE POPE REMAINS SILENT?)

Please, anyone know how to reach Archbishop Martinelli. Can the Vatican get through to him?

Sincerely:

Christella Bernardene Krebs

The Libyan war: legal aspects of NATO's intervention

Now that the Libyan conflict seems to be drawing to the end, or at least the end of its present phase, it might be appropriate to consider the legal aspect of NATO’s involvement.

The first question involves the nature of the Western intervention. In this respect, imagine that a Predator drone, controlled by a foreign state, circles above the White House looking for President Obama. It fires a hellfire missile but misses the President and kills a couple of innocent civilians instead. The foreign state then issues a statement saying it is sorry about the civilians but Obama’s position is untenable and the drones will keep coming until he leaves office.

It is not difficult to imagine the response from the White House. President Obama would make a speech evoking the stirring rhetoric of President Roosevelt’s post-Pearl Harbour address, and the television news would soon be flooded with images of American forces setting off to unleash retribution.
