Should countries attack others without provocation ‘to avoid humanitarian disasters’?
Re: Do you support attacks on Libya?
Muslim countries should not be allowed to attack by west and now its dam clear that they are going for oil I am telling you they are going to do nothing about syria or yemen because they dont have oil even if they kill thousands of their own citizens butt yes Muslim Countries should definately act through all means and stop the goverment
Re: Do you support attacks on Libya?
from the day one i was against these attacks on Libya, now the precedent has been set, the strong countries would attack and country they deem necessary using the excuse of Humanitarian Disaster…
UNO was formed to avoid the situation where a country has to attack any other country… but the very forum has been used by the super powers to attack countries…

I fully agree
Re: Do you support attacks on Libya?
Does it make sense to base judgment of this serious issue off of a comedy satire show whose main goal is to raise its ratings? The intervention by the international community in Libya is based on the protection of civilians from a murderous dictator and preventing a humanitarian disaster. Why do some have to even turn this issue into a west Vs Muslim country debate? The coalition enforcing the UN mandate includes Qatar and UAE. It is unfortunate that some would reach for conspiracy theories about oil and invasion of Muslim countries when the US is participating in an action that has been demanded by the Arab League, and the United Nations, with the sole purpose of protecting innocents from a bombing campaign by their own government.
Isn’t it a paradox to call on the governments of other Muslim countries to stop the U.S, when it was upon their request that we intervened in the first place? In fact it was Arab League Secretary General Amr Moussa who put forward the request for a no-fly zone that would protect Libyan civilians. This request was honored by the unanimous vote of the UN Security Council. What would you have chosen to do, refuse to help the Arab league, refuse to help stop the brutal massacre of at least 300 Libyans every day by Qadhafi, stand aside and do nothing?
International coalition forces are targeting weapons that threaten innocent civilians; including military bases, armored vehicles, and air defense systems. The goal of these operations is to reduce the capability of the dictatorship to fight international forces, including Qatar, who are enforcing the no fly zone that minimizes civilian casualties.
Have the sources you rely on reported the number of Libyans Al Qaddafi’s mercenaries from Mali, Kenya, Algeria, and Guinea…have killed over the years and in this “bread and freedom” rebellion. Even as the crisis escalated, the Libyan government was taking out advertisements in newspapers in other African countries, looking for more muscle with which to suppress his own people.
More than 8000 Libyans killed by Qaddafi’s regime.

. The Libyan ambassador and deputy ambassador to the United Nations (UN) Ibrahim Dabbashi, and Abdurrahman shalgham condemmed Qadhafi’s crackdown and gruesome murders saying no legitimate government kills its own people, and asking Qadhafi to resign. But he still refuses and attacks his own people.

Do not conspiracy theories dishonor the Libyans who sacrifice themselves for bread and freedom? As our president has made clear, we have no ambitions for the country’s territory or resources.
Anyone can make unsupported speculations as to the “ulterior motives” of our actions, but at the end of the day, we have supported an international effort that has been successful in stopping the needless slaughter of innocent Muslim civilians by a brutal dictator who uses his country’s air force against his own people. Those actions speak for themselves.

I support intervention by the Arab League or OIC and nobody else.
