    Seems like you just make shit up half the time and then back out of it when asked to support your claims. At least try to validate what you're saying before you say it in argument.

    What does that even mean? The rebellion (not a proper noun, BTW) was true? What the hell? Is this poetry class or something? The rebellion was and is a rebellion, defined by its opposition to the national government. The US (by no means the major participant in the operation) could not "steal" it. When asked to give evidence to any sort of NATO manipulation of rebel policies you provided nothing but outright falsehoods and wild speculation. Get off the soapbox and stop spouting rhetoric for five minutes and you might see that not every last fucking thing that happens in the world is a giant imperialist scheme.

    This why we shouldn't get involved with shit that's none of our business. It ALWAYS comes back and bites us in the ass diplomatically.

    BTW: I only protest our involvement. If the rebels want to rebel, let them rebel. I don't give a shit about what happens over there.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but is not killing POW's a war crime?

    Well now at least there is 100% undeniable proof that the rebels are committing war crimes if for whatever reason you do not believe the racism towards Africans.

    That video until it can be verified no. they would also have to prove it's widespread and not just an isolated incident.

    How convienient that video evidence of the rebels doing anything that makes them look bad cant be verrified. But something like false rumors and pictures of people holding guns can be said that Gaddafi is hirring mercineries. It is also convenient that the rebels can get away with war crimes by just saying it is an isolated inccident.

    Yeah and a video the rebels took of them executing a soldier to instill fear into Gaddafis forces is proof. The only difference is that most mainstream media will not report on rebels doing something bad. It is amazing that Al Jazeera even reported on the rebels destroying the homes of African workers.

    Also RT exposed the clear bias of media outlets in Libya.

    Dont even bother demon. If an official statement of the tranistional council said "Everyone must exterminate all Africans." was released he would say you cant verify it was true. And if there was no denying it he would say Gaddafi was using mind control on him to make the rebels look bad.
