The Latest from Israel
14/03/2010 17:51:00
As reported in The Tripoli Post's issue number 293 of March 6, NATO forces admitted liquidation of 10 schoolboys in Afghanistan, as killing of Muslims continues.

The fact is that these forces do not discriminate between men, women and children, and kill them all with equal contempt, especially when they happen to be Muslims.

So, killing of ten Muslim children was no big deal.

In May 1996, Madeleine Albright, who was then the US ambassador to the United Nations, was asked by 60 minutes correspondent Lesley Stahl, in reference to years of US-led sanctions against Iraq,
We have heard that half a million children have died.

I mean that is more children than those who died in Hiroshima. Is the price worth it?

To which Ambassador Albright responded, I think that is a very hard choice, but we think, the price is worth it.

Despite sentiments like that, or perhaps because of sentiments like that, towards Muslim Children, she was subsequently confirmed as the US Secretary of State.

Later on, perhaps not satisfied with the rate of killing in Iraq, the US, assisted by the criminal cousins from Britain, launched a full invasion that resulted in the death, wounding and displacement of a few million innocent Iraqis.

To top it, employing divide-and-rule policy, they also created Shia/Sunni rift in Iraq as a result of which, hundreds of innocent Iraqis are dying every month, with no end in sight.

Satisfied with their good work in Iraq, they have now diverted their attention to our region where they are playing the same murderous game, this time with nearly the whole of the Christian world to assist them in their crusade.

david mark; can we go to ur polling unit and see for ur three years what u did to ur plp? but go to libya and see who is madman? by calling kadhafi a mad man,have you ever visited libya and see how peaceful they living and how standard the country was built? is it not the same oil nigeria produce that libya also produce? you guys are enjoying the wealth of 150million people alone in abuja that is why you have the strenght to make such head line,this man kadhafi loves this rootless nigeria that is why he advice you what to do inorder to stop killing here and there because we are never one nigeria,
The madness is really not with Ghadafi but proponents of forceful unification of dissimilar people. Any sensible person knows that Nigeria is a fragmented country. Nigeria is made up of three major tribes and these tribes (IGBO; HAUSA; YOURUBA) are divided majorly on religious grounds, academically, technologically, culturally and otherwise. Hausas are almost 98% Muslims, Yorubas are probably 50% Muslim and Igbos are 100% Christians. The minorities are also in Nigeria making up over 200 subgroups. The subgroups are also majorly divided religiously according to the regions they belong, in the north the Fulani and somany other minorities are majorly Muslims, in the west the minorities of Midwest and Ilajes etc are like Yorubas partly muslim and Christians. From Auchi in Edo state to Okene etc are Muslims and Christians too. In the east 100% of the minorities are Christians just like the Igbos.
Therefore Ghadafi was right in his request. There should be northern country for Hausas and Fulani etc with Abuja as their capital and western country for Yorubas and igbos, Lagos as their capital and the minorities that wants to join them.
This is the only way PEACE CAN COME TO NIGERIA AND THE PEOPLE CAN BE HAPPY AND LIVE IN PEACE AND FACE THE FUTURE AND BE HAPPY WITH THEIR NATIONS. Nigeria today is not a NATION AND NOBODY IS REALY A NIGERIAN.
Yoruba man sees himself as Yoruba and ODUDUWA, the Hausa see himself as AREWA and the Igbos BIAFRA FROM DAY 1. So Nigeria is a country divided from the MIND OF THE PEOPLE AND EVEN THE RIVER NIGER AND BENUE HAS SHOWN THAT IT IS NOT ONE AND WILL NOT SUCESSFULLY BE.
The colonial masters did wrong in forcing Nigerian tribes into a false union and this is ROOT PROBLEM of the country. EU nations created at least 22 nations in the past two decades. WHILE AFRICA’S LARGEST NATION IS LEFT A COLONIAL CREATION, KILLING EACH OTHER. THE END OF COLONIALISM IN NIGERIA WILL BE DIVISION OF THE COUNTRY LET EVERY MAN GO. If they want to become one NATION IT WILL BE BY AGREEMENTS OF THE TRIBES.
This is reasons for agitation of SOVERIGN NATIONAL CONFERENCE THAT THE GOVERNMENT has been standing against. Within Nigeria elites are clamoring for sovereign national conference. They are calling for true federalism. THESE ARE ALL DIFFFERENT NAMES FOR WHAT GHADAFI IS SUGGESTING. TRUTH IS VERY BITTER.

Stop knocking Israel as a guise for your governments cruel treatment of its own citizens. A countries army is to defend its citizens not kill them. The people have spoken. Ghaddifi is done. He will have to give up the billions of dollars and his lackies from the treasury. The world is a small place. Those that commit crimes against their own cannot hide any longer. I suggest anyone working for the regime or those working as its sound piece had better watch their backs for the hands of justice always prevail.

Why can't muslims stop killing each other? all we hear about in australia is muslims fighting and blowing up each other with bombs. Women are treated badly and officials like gaddafi steal all the money.
why not stop and live by the true meaning of your religion, instead of using it against each other. the world is sick of it.

You are wrong. All NTC and rebels have admitted to media even CNN that Gaddaffi is well loved and supported by majority of Libyans that without airstrikes by Nato which is run by Israel Gaddaffi Govt still be in charge. NTC and rebels were not voted, were never supportedd by majority of Libyans. Libyan people fled the country entirely even rebel families fled because rebels are killing rebel families and each other. Stop believing mainstream media and read independent journalists who tell the truth. Read www.globalresearch.ca which is canadian and stop supporting pro war politicians. Nato refused to let Libyan people vote every year for 43 yrs because Gaddaffi would win. Libyan people now must either fight militarily to restore their choice which is Gaddaffi or demand to vote in their choice which is Gaddaffi. No country has the right to overthrow any govt and that overthrow including help by Canada as part of Nato violated Intl Laws,Canadian laws, and violated the UN Resolution. Nato is still violating UN in Serbia and still violating by trying to have regime change in Libya and killing or trying to kill Gaddaffi violates UN. Stand up for the law and stop supporting Nato terrorism or Israeli terrorism. Complaint to editor you failed to post letters that criticize rebels/NTC and support Gaddaffi. That is not fair and that is not democracy.
