Dear Transglobal Humanitarians:
Intervention cannot be situational when the bottom-line is justice. The protesters of London cannot be wrong in their legitimate quest for equity. What is common about the wealth when the have-nots bear the brunt of corporate and military waywardness of the haves? What sense does it make to increase the presence of Scotland Yard on the streets instead of using the pounds to provide employment training, especially for minority youths? There is no Godforsaken reason why David Cameron of Britain and his warmongering wing spend millions of dollars per month to house British bombers in Italy and he takes vacation in Tuscany while poor citizens deprived of basic social amenities. Has Cameron ever heard of poverty in Libya? NO.
Cameron is full of b/s to call democratic protest a criminal conduct. Are the rebels of Libyan not armed and chopping off the heads of their captives?
Now, where are the G7 and NATO to bamboozle and misuse the UN for this intervention – so that the Olympics can be held in 2012? Whatever, look, the protesters should be hailed as the democratic London Rebels desirous of change. The Guinea African woman has given Sarkozy a respite. But I think Africa would be better off with DSK.
I am having a belly laugh that is ripe with ironies.

The stupidity that spends money into Libya than using it to create jobs that are way needed in UK is what I fail to understand. But that is me, and why are all of them on vacation, the mayor the prime minister r the what, how do they get that money to always be on vacation?
Can you imagine if Mugabe goes to vacation they all lament.

UK in flames? You must be joking! What happened to the vanguards of human rights and justice???
Now, if we are to go by the reasoning of UK's military intervention in Libya, NATO and allies should be already packing their bags and heading to UK to help the 'pro-democracy' forces fighting injustice by the Cameron government! And I challenge NATO and allies on their partiality! But since UK has no OIL, I bet if NATO, USA, and allies can go to UK to fight for the demonstrators' rights.
That is how mighty = democracy at least in the developed world's eye lenses.
