unquote. ban ki-moon, the u.n. secretary general, has also expressed concern over the protection of civilians even as allied bombing continued during the international conference on libya in england this week. stating that the u.n., and this is a quote, continues to receive deeply disturbing reports about the lack of protection of civilians, including various abuses of human rights by the parties to the conflict. he was alluding to possible human rights abuses by libyan bel forces. even the secretary general of nato, an organization ich the united states founded and generally controls, expressed concern. saying, quote, we're not in little bitia to arm people but to protect people, unquote. so i ask, is this truly a humanitarian intervention? what is humanitarian about providing to one side of the conflict the ability to wage war against the other side of a conflict which will inevitably trigger a civil war making all of libya a grave yard? e administration has told us incredibly they don't really know who the rebel

in libya what is the democratic forces in libya right now that justifies this humanitarian quote unquote humanitarian intervention. first of all there is a natural instinct amongst the libyan people especially when you have a. brutal regime that suppress people's ability to speak or move and one hand but if you're referring to the spot prospects of democracy in libya i can tell you that my visit last week to the board stronghold the libyan opposition i spent four days of being one on one with senior members of the transitional national council i address the gathering and i came back with a very very satisfied feeling that libya is on to a democratic change in a democratic party i'm sorry to interrupt you but it looks like this it looks like a civil war it doesn't look like a march for democracy i mean how do you how do you this is a contradiction in terms this is a civil war that is getting worse by the day as we do we're doing this program here the so-called democratic opposition is angry at nato for not bombing enough their own country here i mean how can we be talking about you know a

seeing their their very good dictator friends leave and now they want to show their quote unquote good face and the because of the opposition to gadhafi which many of them were associated with gadhafi one point time or even cut in other groups their opportunities now trying to cash in but you think. yes but if. the international community does not help the pro-democracy forces who will this is i mean we have to look at the arab world as a regional system when the tunisian revolution happened all arabs were tunisians when the egyptian one happened all arabs were gyptian so if we let deathy get away with this it will signal to all the other arab dictators that all they have to do to stay in office is to shoot and massacre their populations also for the intervention of course that didn't go as expected that it's going to be short and brief and then the pro-democracy forces will. take over the country and fortunately the pro-democracy forces seem to be highly organized and also and they're equipped so the international community had to do something as the international the so-called intern

there overthrowing once again the united states is getting itself into bed with the rebels quote unquote on the ground in libya that are not known quantities i mean i think it's sort of hilarious that the cia has to deploy to go and figure out who the rebels are it's like a sort of you know covert world online dating service or the cia goes into libya to find out who the rebels are would have been a good idea to find out who they were before you started spending one point four million dollars per tomahawk cruise missile but you launch at yemen five hundred million dollars already spent on it and reports that the rebels themselves have been committing war crimes so the potential for blowback from all of these things killing of civilians in yemen with tomahawk cruise missiles running covert operations in somalia the philippines and then elsewhere in the horn of africa getting involved in a civil war with libya and then continuing to back up dictatorships like the saudis the biharis and others i think it gives a great recruitment tool to those who do want to do harm to americans and i think
