Leader of Jewish Libyan diaspora group in UK says “I feel we are going towards a civil war with a lot of bloodshed.”

“I’m in touch with people in Benghazi especially and the situation is worse than appears in the press and on TV,” Raphael Luzon, the chairman of the Jewish Libyan diaspora in the UK, told The Jerusalem Post. “This is a big massacre and it’s even affected people who stayed home who are now being hurt by use of heavy weapons.”

Who are we supposed to be backing and supporting this time? The Muslim peasants in the streets or the dictator Kadafi?

It’s like an Eagles-Giants game. I hope for them both to lose.

Wait. Sorry. Guess not. It’s just the way it’s excerpted. And the headline threw me off.

Civil war requires both sides to be armed. I don’t see that happening in Libya.

Deer (in the headlights) Leader is still conducting polls so he will know what to tell us to think. Unfortunately no one has any idea what to think about it so the polling isn’t coming up with much. It’s a deadly feedback loop which could short circuit TOTUS if unconsensified data is fed into the scrolling mechanism.

I say bring back imperialism. If Arabs are too unstable to be trusted with the world's oil supply, then control over it needs to be taken away from them. It is just too important.
