The points made do not give an inkling as to what " the revolution" is
about and it's not as if cause can be so conspicuously separated from
effect.
1.Kotoh Bangura is surely not suggesting that the Noble Arab mothers,
wives, sisters and daughters should provide the canon-fodder for Mr.
Gaddafi's proven gun-power?
2.Let's not over-simplify the existence of black people on both sides
of the Libyan conflict or that Gaddafi's has black mercenaries.
I don't know whether you yourself were a poor black immigrant to Italy
through Libya, but isn't it Gaddafi who since August last year has
been using the much touted Africans/ Black Libyans as a bargaining
chip when he " threatens" to flood Europe with African migrants and
to make Europe Black, if Europe does not give him £4 billion a year.
