You know like me, the "international community" is concerned right now about what is happening in Libya but also in Syria (not in Palestine, no, certainly not in Gaza). If in the case of Syria, called international community almirah was limited to the adoption of sanctions (which this country was already afflicted by the political crisis that he lives now), Libya was entitled to an intervention Military executed by NATO. The latter mandated by whomever, is gone protect almirah Libyan civilians by bombing all kinds of infrastructure, often civilians. Is that Seif al-Islam, son of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi seems he promised "rivers of blood" and reminded us Mr. Sarkozy on the deck of aid ship that is the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle .. But if you want to read the passage that are extracted these rivers almirah of blood, some difficulty was to detect any expression of cruelty: "Libya is at a crossroads.

Based on eyewitness testimony, he stated that the plane carrying the secretary general had been shot by an unidentified fighter aircraft. Without being able to prove it, however, every reason to believe that Britain was directly or indirectly involved in the assassination. almirah The Guardian article I propose will allow you to form your own opinion. What is certain is that little tired at the time to invoke the humanitarian principles and the "international community" was both more expeditious and, somehow, less hypocritical. almirah Dag Hammarskjöld: evidence suggests that the plane of the UN chief was shot by Julian Borger and Georgina almirah Smith, The Guardian (UK) August 17, 2011 translated from English by Djazaïri Eye testimony that a second aircraft had fired at the plane raise questions on smothering the 1961 crash and its causes by the British New evidence emerged about one of the most enduring mysteries of the UN history and the Africa.
