"Madam President, the veritable massacre unleashed on the Libyan people by the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) and its main powers give us cause for concern. Five months of bombing, thousands of innocent civilians dead, infrastructure and social amenities destroyed, and a country in ruins: that is the inconvenient truth that those already launching themselves into pillaging the country’s resources and into the lucrative business of reconstruction are seeking to hide.
While oil and other Libyan natural resources are being carved up, they are preparing to rebuild what they have destroyed, at the expense of the Libyan people and the country’s sovereign resources. The Libyan people were, and still are, the victims of a flagrant violation of international law, of the United Nations Charter and of Security Council Resolution 1973, which, hypocritically, refers to the protection of civilians. These are the same civilians on whom NATO dropped its humanitarian bombs.
However, as reality has shown in other situations, when faced with aggression and imperialist war from the United States and Europe, people respond by resisting and fighting for peace, freedom and sovereignty, and by taking their destiny into their own hands."@en1
