NATO'S High Moral Stance on Libya

One might question NATO's concern over civilians' safety and rights in Libya as does Dennis Kucinich, a U.S. Democratic Representative from the state of Ohio.

But then we can question US record which is one of the focus points of this entire blog regarding its use of Cluster Bombs and the long term concerns over their victims.

With the UK being a leading member of the NATO manoeuver in Libya we may also question it's credibility in particular when BP admits 'lobbying UK over Libya prisoner transfer scheme but not Lockerbie bomber'. For more on this see:

The moral dilema can be seen more poignantly when viewed in historical terms. Take a look at these opinions below:

"If you dig down deep enough one finds that all conflicts have their root in natural resource allocation with layers of human emotion and passion to fuel the fire. Often times what a war’s stated purpose and cause isn’t really what it is all about."
