NATO SHOULD QUIT LYING ABOUT THEIR LIBYAN MISSION!


In explaining why NATO warplanes destroyed several Libyan naval and maritime assets, Rear Admiral Russell Harding, deputy head of the NATO-led air war on Libya said, "Given the escalating use of naval assets, NATO had no choice but to take decisive action to protect the civilian population of Libya and NATO forces at sea!" 

Icheoku retorts that it is about time the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation man up and tell the world why their mission in Libya is imperative and quit throwing up these "protection of civilians" excuses or are those civilians being killed in Syria not also civilians or civilian enough worthy of NATO's protection? It is also noteworthy that Libyan so called civilians are armed to the teeth with military grade assault weapons while Syrian civilians have no weapons at all? So Icheoku asks, as between Libyan civilians and Syrian civilians, who is more civilian? Anyway, what a world we live in that is full of the more you look the less you see; as the world is yet to definitively made to see or understand the rational behind NATO's double standards as it affect Libya and Syria situation.
