UNITED NATIONS (AP) — President Barack Obama promised the Libyan people that the world will stand with them as they reshape their country following the fall of Moammar Gadhafi's regime.

Speaking at a high-level United Nations meeting Tuesday, the president warned that there would still be difficult days ahead in Libya, as Gadhafi loyalists make a final stand and the country's provisional leadership grapples with the complex task of setting up a new government. But Obama said it was clear that Libya was now in the hands of the people.

"After decades of iron rule by one man, it will take time to build the institutions needed for a democratic Libya. I'm sure there will be days of frustration," Obama said. "But if we have learned anything these many months, it is this — do not underestimate the aspirations and will of the Libyan people."

"Just as the world stood by you in your struggle to be free, we will now stand with you in your struggle to realize the peace and prosperity that freedom can bring," he said.

Obama praised the international community for having "the courage and the collective will to act" in Libya. He said that while global powers cannot and should not intervene every time there is an injustice in the world, there are occasions when nations must join forces to prevent the killing of innocent civilians.

"Our international coalition stopped the regime in its tracks and saved countless lives, and gave the Libyan people the time and space to prevail," Obama said.

Obama was joined .. by several other world leaders and representatives of Libya's National Transitional Council. Prior to the gathering, Obama met one-on-one with the NTC's chairman, Mustafa Abdel Jalil.

The U.S. now recognizes the NTC as Libya's legitimate government. ..

FDR sold out Eastern Europe to placate Stalin.

Obama is selling out the Middle East and Israel.

Got to love those Fabian Socialists..

The NATO bombing will continue as long as necessary? I guess even the complete trampling of the meaning of the current Security Council resolution is too confining for Obama. I don't think the Russians and the Chinese are going to agree to anything beyond the end of September, but so what?

“The Gaddafi family could have billions of dollars of funds hidden in secret bank accounts in Dubai, south-east Asia and the Persian Gulf, much of it likely to have come from Libya’s vast oil revenues, according to analysis by leading Middle East experts.

Professor Tim Niblock, a specialist in Middle Eastern politics at the University of Exeter, has identified a gap of several billion dollars a year between the amount Libya makes from its oil reserves and government spending – a shortfall he expects has contributed greatly to the wealth of Muammar Gaddafi and his nine children.”

They believe the African blacks are friends of Gadhafi, so blacks are getting slaughtered in Libya. They're holding up banners supporting death to the black skinned.

What a delusional self-infatuated moron.

He didn’t have to make such a stupid statement.

But he did anyway.

Just to prove how arrogant he is, and to demonstrate to the world, again, that he has no ability to learn.

His Muslim solidarity act doesn’t impress anyone any more except his own sweet self.

Sharia's toxic to Democracies. In the end, thuggy strong men will take over the reigns of government in Sharia based countries. Look at Iran. Turkey's reverting. The Sauds have enough money and secret police to keep some illusions going - when the payoff money starts falling, truth will seep out...

>>>>>>>Just to prove how arrogant he is<<<<<<

Even worse, Hussein demonstrates that he as POTUS has no information what is really going on in Libya. Very likely that he is out of the loop as security risk and fed chaff.

The only way how NATO can steal Libya's natural resources and wealth is full scale ground invasion and mass murder of 5 million Libyans. NATO's proxy army of AQ bashibozouk is being decimated piecemeal. Along with SAS and Qatari "soldiers".

Libyans are against the wall and have nothing to lose, NATO can lose everything. Libya was merely side show meant to fill NATO's coffers. And because of side show going wrong job in Mackinder's Inner crescent is not going as planned. NATO is stuck while Ruskies and Chicoms prepare.

When waging war timing is of essence but NATO was not watching the clock.
