NATO In Libya: Victory Would Be Worse Than Defeat

Gaddafi and the West’s Cynicism

Muammar Gaddafi And Sober Media
“The first casualty of war is the truth” said American Senator Hiram Johnson. “In time of war, when truth is so precious, it must be attended by a bodyguard of lies” – Winston Churchill. If nothing else the world’s media have proved those two aphorisms in spades as the coverage […]
Al-Qaeda Front May Emerge on Europe’s Southern Border
Hopes by the Western anti-Libya military coalition that Gadhafi’s regime would fall quickly have been replaced by fears of a prolonged stalemate.
