The African Union And Sarkozy's War In Libya
Very interesting editorial"

Here's a clip:

"What incentive does Benghazi have for dialogue when they believe that NATO is a rebel airforce and will eventually help them turn the tide? NATO has even been coordinating its strikes with Benghazi--Russia and China must feel humiliated for failing to block this Sarkozy criminal scam. Resolution 1973 was intended to save Libyan civilians not for the West to become partisans in the civil war.

Benghazi does not have the will or capability to defeat Muammar al-Quathafi's armed forces. Benghazi includes al-Quathafi's former top officials, such as justice minister Mustafa Jalil and Gen. Abdel Fattah Younis, as well as monarchists, academics, CIA trainers, and Islamists including Al-Qaeda, according to a U.S. military report. Benghazi has failed to spark a popular uprising throughout the country or a revolt by al-Quathafi's army. That those tank brigades have not turned against al-Quathafi is a clear testament that there is a fundamental divide between Tripoli and Benghazi, between West and East---the substance for the civil war."
