Now, go grab some chains:
(Amnesty International) staff on a fact-finding mission to 15 detention centres across (Libya) suggested militias are repeating the same abuses of the Gaddafi regime…During the visits throughout May and June, the mission found evidence of beatings and other abuse in 12 of the 15 detention centres. Common methods of torture reported included electric shocks, suspension in contorted positions and prolonged beatings with metal bars, chains, electric cables, sticks, plastic hoses, water pipes....
Not really very springtimey, is it?
I hear there is now a shortage of 11 year old virgins as well!!!
At least Gaddafi cared a little bit what the international community thought. So far every dictator that has been thrown out has been replaced by something worse. Can hardly wait for the collection of losers that will rule Syria when Assad gets turfed. Any bets on Muslim Brotherhood ??
Yes, the people subjected to an Arab-Islamic North Korea should just forget the past when the lackeys of the formerly powerful become powerless.
'Just doesn't work in a non-Western country. And it didn't work in the Eastern European "bloodlands" during World War II either.
Can't we wait 'till Sunday - the day after the constitutional assembly elections - to bash Libya?
What this country needs is a rogue page...
"Springtime for the Muslim Brotherhood!
Winter for everyone else..."
Competing thug clans within competing thug tribes.
There is a certain perverse logic to Obama's policy.
If you reset everything to zero and let them spend their
time slaughtering each other, they will eventually desist.
.
So what we unliberate them. Maybe we can send the ndp over to sort this out.
And since when do conservatives trust anything out of the mouth of Amnesty International? The group that claims torture in the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay, defenders of Maher Arar and Omar Khadr?
Muzzies killing Muzzies, why should we care?
Sell weapons to both sides.
I dare say SBD had it right after all:

Declaration of Dependence
We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that many Men are simply Leeches, that they wish to be endowed by their Government with unending Benefits & Entitlements, that among these are Life, Free Stuff and the Pursuit of more Free Stuff — That to secure these Rip-offs, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their confiscatory Powers from the Consent of the Crooks and Liars, that whenever any Form of Resistance becomes destructive of these Ends, it is the Right of the Leeches to demonize them, and to institute even Bigger Government, laying its Foundation on such Principles, and organizing its Powers in such Form, as to them shall seem most likely to satisfy their boundless Greed and Self-righteousness. Social Justice, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should constantly be changed for light and transient Causes; and accordingly all Experience hath shewn, that Mankind are more disposed to demand Tribute, at all Times, than to Improve themselves by forsaking the Habits to which they are accustomed . But when a long Train of Resentments and Delusions, pursuing invariably the same Object, evinces a Design to reduce their Fellow Citizens under absolute Despotism, it is their Right, it is their Duty, to whole-heartedly embrace such Government, and to provide new Whips and Chains for their future Enslavement.
A methodology for all seasons.
How is this a surprise?
It's a Muslim country in which they have scores to settle between tribes.
The same will happen to Syria et al.
NATO bombed the sh$t outta Libya and left it destroyed. Clever... Liberating who? Really. Who?
Funny thing is all those smuggled weapons are feeding the AQIM in Mali and elsewhere in western Africa, a future Taliban style region. Someone soon over there will shoot down an airliner with a MANPADS to the glory of allah.

Whoa, Rheal! We got it the first time. (Though it's happened to most of us at one time or another.)
These are the exact consequences the Chimp in Chief intended to have. After all, THIS is being done by his Brothers in Islam...
Well jwkozak91 I guess you and I agree on something. Amnesty International is not a reliable source. I don't believe torture is taking place in Guantanamo and you don't believe there is torture taking place in Libya.
I actually don't care if they torture Islamic terrorists in Guantonamo. It isn't like they wouldn't torture us, right?
As for Libya the Mo Bros won the "election" so we can expect to see lots more barbarian behavior.
Sgt Lejaune, it is not likely they will desist, not until they run out of bullets and knives.
In Kenya when the ruling tribe is replced by another, the new tribe says "It is our turn to eat."
In Libya they say, "It is our turn to beat>"
A well-spoken barbarian is still a barbarian. And these aren't particularly well-spoken.
The reason we will not see any coverage of the decline in Egypt by the Canadian lazy biased media:
PM Harper was skeptical of the 'arab springy thingy'
http://digitaljournal.com/article/316716
I spoke yesterday with an Egyptian born Canadian. He explained life under the dictator Mubarak: Christians were protected, his relatives became wealthy in free market capitalism (auto parts), and peace on the streets was maintained.
Pretty tough eh?
He is, needless to say, discouraged with western support for the Arab spring.
It's not really torture until they perform "Waterboarding." As we all know, only governments that use a waterboarding technique are truly evil.
As The Who sang many years ago...
Meet the New Boss.
Same as the Old Boss
When thugs rule a Country what can you expect?
The NDP would do the same if they could.
