Kadhafi blasts Israel over Africa's woes at AU summit (Hugo Chavez makes an appearance)

TRIPOLI (AFP) – Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi blasted Israel at a special African Union summit on Monday on the eve of celebrations to mark his 40-year rule, accusing the Jewish state of causing all the woes facing Africa.

Israel is "behind all of Africa's conflicts," Kadhafi told some 30 African leaders gathered under a huge tent at Tripoli airport for a summit focused on solving the continent's trouble spots, including Sudan's Darfur and Somalia.

However the one-day meeting ended without proposing concrete steps to do so, the leaders merely adopting a "Tripoli Declaration" and a plan of action "to find urgent solutions to crises and conflicts" in Africa.

That plan urged member states who have pledged to contribute troops to reinforce the AU peacekeeping force in Somalia (AMISOM) to honour their promises "rapidly."

...

The summit's closing session was marked by the arrival of outspoken Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, in Libya to attend Tuesday's 40th anniversary celebrations.

"A united Africa is a free Africa," Chavez said in a speech in which he hailed "40 years of green revolution in Libya."

Among those attending the summit were Sudanese President Omar al-Beshir, who is facing an International Criminal Court arrest warrant for alleged war crimes in Darfur, and Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe.

...Kadhafi....outspoken Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez....Sudanese President Omar al-Beshir, who is facing an International Criminal Court arrest warrant for alleged war crimes in Darfur, and Robert Mugabe of Zimbabwe.

It's like an all-star team. I bet Kim Jong Il, Ahmadinejad, and Raul Castro were jealous.

Its always them dam Jews!

They cause all the problems in the world. Heck the weekend I saw a movie called Inglorious Bastards where the were blood thirsty murderers who went after Kadaffi’s hero Hitler.

Yep its always the fault of them Jews.

(for the record I’m a Jew)

I trace this outburst of belligerence to Obama’s flaccid response to the release of the Lockerbie bomber. Kadaffy Duck has been pretty meek these last 20 years or so, even refraining from making much noise on Israel.

Thanks ZERO

That's true, insofar as Israel hasn't snuffed the a-hole dictator of Libya.
