Libyans Have the Right of Free Speech.

The rebels are in retreat again.  Take away foreign intervention and the so-called popular uprising is easily defeated.  Where are the five million civilians who are supposed to be rebels?  Obviously, if even a majority of the people wanted Gaddafi out, they would shelter, feed, fund and join the rebels.  But the people do not!  Is it possible that this is actually a minor rebellion of radical former military people who are themselves, like Gaddafi ,  seeking to seize control of Libya?  And the so-called leadership of the rebellion.  USA acknowledges it knows next to nothing about them, and our Sec. State has meetings with well dressed, expatriats who fled to France and lived in luxury while ordinary Libyans slogged through their daily life under the regime.  Do we remember Chalabi in Iraq?  He was a cheat and a phony expatriate who we thought was the answer to Iraq’s problems.  Yesterday I read news that the people in Gaddafi’s hometown were bombed, strafed and obviously, killed.  They are civilians but of his tribe.  So, it seems that the people who are civilians but who support Gaddafi are not allowed have free speech, free politics and freedom of assembly.  Why?  because a foreign President of the USA ( The land of the free and the home of the brave) tells them they are not allowed that freedom.  The need to believe as he does and as do French and British colonial imperialists.  I really do not agree with most of what Louis Farrakhan says, but he is right to ask President Obama who the hell he thinks he is?  Indeed as President of the USA he is one of the most important world leaders.  But he is not President of the world?   And Lindsey Graham made the association of the Minutemen with the Libyan rebels.  Please Senator, do not liken the Libyan rebels to the citizen soldiers of Bunker hill and Concord, and Valley Forge.  Last word for this post.  Did any of us realize that we had such war mongers in the Congress.  Amazing to hear Senator Mc Cain and Liebermann endorse foreign interventionism.  America is not the policeman nor the savior of the world.  And for those who will quote Gaddafi about “…showing no mercy..”  Arabs are noted for exaggeration.  Remember Saddam with his Mother of all Battles speech?
