The news doesn’t get better for thousands of black Africans trapped in Libya, besieged by racist rebel fighters. In addition to chronic suspicion of being mercenaries for Gadhafi, women in one internal refugee camp say they are dragged off at night and raped by Libyans who fight under the flag of the new authorities.
“They come in firing their guns and taking people,” a Nigerian woman told McClatchy. “They don’t use condoms…”
US Ambassador Gene Cretz doesn’t think the abuses are systematic or intentional on the part of the Transitional National Council, whose forces recently routed dictator Moammar Gadhafi. “It’s something that’s happening at levels below that, which is of considerable concern to us,” he told McClatchy.
A local TNC official dismisses the claims of the women, saying he’s received no reports of abuse.
Thousands of foreign and Libyan blacks have been rounded up, imprisoned, and abused with only their skin color as evidence of their guilt, according to rights groups. The African Union has refused to recognize the NTC partly due to such abuses.
U.S Ambassador Gene Cretz does not think the abuses are serious?????
I thought that the UN Mandate was for the protection of ALL Civilians. Oh well – maybe I was wrong – it must have ment only the protection of people who will let the Western Powers have Libyan oil.
Ambassador Cretz has never been a victim of rape, he insists…that he be the rapist. And so…it's not that serious. After all who can resist the charms of the ambassador? C'mon….they wanted IT!
So much for freedom and liberty.
The United States: "If it's politically expedient, we will support you. Otherwise, you can go f**k yourselves."
Supporters of the Obama Afrikan Agenda:
Will blame Gaddafi.
Will deny all such reports.
Will say reports are exaggerated.
Will blame the victims (they deserved it because some blacks were hired mercenaries).
Will hope it all goes away so they can move on to Somalia, Yemen, Syria or some other forlorn, remote land.
Like we are supposed to believe the US embassador or the TNC?
President Obama…has he been asked about this?
He's supporting people who round up , kill, imprison and rape "black" people.
Doesn't that bring to mind a few questions?
Is there anybody out there?
And isn't it funny that all the "anti-racists" in the U.S. were the one's that kept telling us that Obummer was gonna lead us to the land of milk and honey?
Hmm well …. I think the milk's gone bad and the honey is poisoned.
