“So long as the Libyan people are being threatened, the NATO led mission to protect them will continue. And those still holding out must understand the old regime is over, and it is time to lay down your arms and join the new Libya.”-Barack Obama, President of the United States
September 21, U.S. led NATO agreed to extend their air campaign in Libya by another 90 days. Here’s the hypocrisy in Obama’s statement: He says Libyan people are threatened, well “those still holding out” are on the defensive, it’s the U.S. backed rebels that are (and have been) on the offensive. On top of that NATO has been bombing the shit out of anyone who doesn’t want to join the rebels! It looks to me that it’s the U.S. backed rebels that’re doing the threatening!
So, warmonger Obama, is NATO gonna start bombing the rebels, in earnest (they’ve already ‘accidentally’ bombed the rebels a few times)?
