Not so long ago, our leaders were all over Libya’s Colonel Muammar Gaddafi like one of his own cheap suits after being told he’d joined the West in its ‘war on terror’.
Now Foreign Secretary William Hague wrings his hands over news reports that Gaddafi has turned snipers and machine-guns on protesters. He calls Libyan state violence ‘unacceptable and horrifying’.
Our ‘ethical’ foreign policy in the Middle East — supporting vile regimes in exchange for their oil and business — is in ruins. Dirt-poor Arabs are becoming aware — via satellite TV and the internet — of how shabbily they are treated and are rising in protest.
Our Government’s feeble line is to urge restraint by both sides, and suggest meaningful dialogue about reforms.
Why didn’t the West do that before the young in Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain and Libya risked their lives by taking to the streets?
Or insist that they treat their people better before being drawn into compromising deals and treaties with the tyrants involved? Is it because we were too greedy for their oil and their business?
In 2004, Tony Blair was pictured shaking hands with Gaddafi, with whom he said he’d forged ‘a new relationship’. Gaddafi wanted to join with Britain ‘in common cause with us against Al Qaeda, extremists and terrorism’ said Blair.
Previously, Gaddafi had been our mortal enemy. He had supplied guns and explosives to the IRA. Now he was our friend. He wanted to help us defeat terrorism! Or was it the fear that, after Afghanistan and Iraq, America and Britain would invade Libya, executing him for his crimes?
Our leaders knew this was his cynical calculation, but they had devious plans of their own.
To get more access to Libya’s oil. To sell more goods — including armaments — to Libya.
So, as our new friend — our ally in the ‘war against terror’ — Gaddafi’s previous crimes against us were forgotten. The IRA? Water under the bridge after the all-smothering Northern Ireland peace process.
The Libyan intelligence chief Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, convicted and jailed in Scotland for the Pan Am bombing? He was ill with cancer and had only three months to live.
Let him return home to die within three months. Or not, as it turned out to be.
WPC Yvonne Fletcher, shot dead in a London street by a gunman inside the Libyan embassy? We never managed to persuade the Libyans to identify the killer and send him here for trial.
Asked if he was queasy about meeting Gaddafi, Blair put on his solemn face and replied: ‘It was strange, given the history, to come here and do this and, of course, I am conscious of the pain that people have suffered as a result of terrorist actions in the past.’
The pain ordinary people suffer from terrorism is nothing when compared with the pleasure politicians like Blair experience when they bring about ‘reconciliation’ — even if it’s one bought cynically because of Gaddafi’s fear of invasion, and our own greed for his oil and business.
We’re told it’s necessary for Britain to be close to repellently vicious, corrupt regimes because our economy depends on it. Do they mean those who make the most money in our economy, like bankers and oilmen?
The former Tory minister David Mellor spoke on Radio 4’s Today show last week defending Bahrain after four protesters were shot dead by its military. He said: ‘Bahrain is a stalwart friend of the West . . . It’s a liberal and tolerant quasi- democracy.’ And the killings? ‘Deeply regrettable,’ he said.
Mellor is vilified by some, but wasn’t he saying publicly what the Government thinks privately? Bahrain as it is suits Britain just fine. Its majority Shia population is sidelined by the ruling Sunni minority, but we mustn’t interfere, say status quo supporters, because this would play into the hands of Iran, which, they say, foments trouble there.
Bahrain is only a causeway away from Saudi Arabia. A Shia uprising in Bahrain might be replicated in Saudi’s eastern province. We are also fearful about upsetting the status quo in Saudi Arabia, which supplies oil to us and buys enormous quantities of defence equipment, partly on the understanding that we’ll protect them.

quote:Majority of Libyan army units & Libyan police have now joined protesters against Gaddafi. The only ones remaining in defence of Gaddafi are his guards and the thousands of mercenaries that he has brought to Libya to fight the people & whom he is paying generously. This video showing Libyan army arresting Gaddafi's mercenaries
Als Ghadaffi zich echt in eigen land verschanst, heeft ie niet lang meer. Ben benieuwd hoe heet 't zijn ingehuurde maatjes onder de voeten moet worden voor ze 'm gratis uitleveren aan de woedende menigte in ruil voor hun eigen leven.quote:

De "burgeroorlog" kan vanavond afgelopen zijn. Gewoon Ghaddafi's bunker dichtlassen, en klaar.

Het is al gelukt. De enige vraag is hoe veel mensen er nog dood gaan voor Ghaddafi klaar is met zichzelf dood te vechten.quote:Op dinsdag 22 februari 2011 14:07 schreef Outpost76 het volgende:

Tot zelfs zijn vertrouwelingen hem niet meer gehoorzamen. Als ze moeten kiezen tussen zeker dood of misschien dood, is de keuze vaak niet lastig.quote:
