It gave the fanatics an excuse to slaughter the foreign african workers:

excerpt

During the civil war, African migrant workers suffered the worst of the violence. Racist hatred was fueled against them by a myth spread most notably by Al Jazeera that African migrant workers in Libya were actually Gaddafi’s hired mercenaries. This racist violence was wrought with a vengeance against the 35,000 citizens living in the city of Tawergha. The Tawerghans were forcibly removed from their homes, a few were executed, and the rest were sent away never allowed to return. Their crime was their supposed support for Gaddafi. Vijay Prashad in Arab Spring, Libyan Winter writes of one incident that took place in the days before the bombings began, when protesters executed 50 “African Mercenaries” at a police station in the province of Cyrenaica. During the bombings, NATO showed no compassion towards the African migrant workers. Horace Campbell, in Global NATO and the Catastrophic Failure of Libya writes, “More than 900 Africans drowned in the Mediterranean Sea, trying to escape the fighting in Libya. In one spectacular incident, two survivors reported the tragic story of a boat carrying 72 African immigrants that ran into difficulty trying to reach the Italian port of Lampedusa. The Africans on board, including women and children, were left to drift in the Mediterranean for sixteen days after a number of European military units apparently ignored their cries for help. Two of the nine survivors claimed this included a NATO ship. Despite alarms being raised with the Italian coast guard and the boat making contact with a military helicopter and a warship, no rescue effort was attempted.” This wanton disregard for human life is emblematic of the entirety of the NATO intervention. It was a horrific affair with tens of thousands massacred. In the letter published by U.S. President Barack Obama, French President Nicholas Sarkozy, and British President David Cameron, the three announced that they “would not rest” until, “the Libyan people can choose their own future.” During the fall of Gaddafi’s capital of Tripoli, mobs of barely armed Gaddafi supporters, ordinary citizens of the Libyan city of Tripoli, rallied to defend Gaddafi’s compound Bab al-Aziza. There they were attacked by the full might of NATO’s arsenal. Some 63 bombings were undertaken targeting the supporters at the compound in a single 24-hour period. Apache gunships and drones were used to attack this mass of what were technically “combatants” so that now “the Libyan people can choose their own future.”

WHAT IS NATO NOW?

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

NATO now is the enforcement arm of the Wests coercive utopian movement, liberals who have gone wilding.

NATO has destabilized Europe, by opening the can of war
on Libya, enabling Russia to exercise similar military options in Crimea and the rest of Ukraine tioo solve regional issues exactly the way Obama did in Egypt and Libyah.

The Arab spring touted by Obama and the various democrat sponsered conferences in Washington and New York, including travel funding from the ME and North Africa, which trained the native political operatives of Libya on how to overthrough Gadaffi...was community organizing at its BEST ( sic).

Russia under Vlad the Shirtless is just playing the same game Obama unleashed in Libya and Egypt, yet doing a much better job so far, without slaughtering hundreds of thousands of innocents, and destroying the greening system of Libyas deserts.Vlad is even using the same system of destabilizing the nation he is about to take over. So now it is not strange that Obama and Vlad speak for an hour at a time on the phone comparing notes. Both are cast from the same totalitarian mold.

What is keeping NATO from responding to Russia militarily?Its the soft sound of oil and gas gushing through various pipelines from the Black Sea to Kiev into Munich and beyond.
Its time to put the left out of control of NATO, into the hands of responsible men of war rather than the debarked greenies,coercive utopian socialists, who control NATO now. Their activity, if continued,will bring about WWIII.
