Libya violence shows failure of Western world in regime change
The Libya violence in Tripoli was only one of the many armed conflicts in the country of former but murdered leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi.
This week, the Libyans took up arms and fought a deadly battle in the still ravaged capital city.
The latest fight has brought the western world – US, UK, France and Italy – to call for an immediate end to deadly violence in the Libyan capital Tripoli.
The western world still believes that the fight is an attempt “to weaken the legitimate Libyan authorities and hinder the ongoing political process are not acceptable”.However, they themselves have no idea who is the legit rulers of Libya today after opening a can of worms in 2011.
At least 39 people, including civilians, have died in rival militia clashes in Tripoli in recent days, says the BBC.
A UN-backed government is nominally in power in the capital, but militias occupy much of the rest of the country, admitted the British news agency.
The Americans, with the Europeans, say they are calling on armed groups (most of whom does not listen to them) to immediately stop all military actions.
They also warned those who seek to undermine stability (sic), in Tripoli or elsewhere in Libya, that they will be made accountable for it.
But the militias are not afraid of the western threats.
As usual, the western powers used their lackeys the like of Human Rights Watch to also condemn the violence.
HRW said at least 18 of the dead were civilians, among them four children. They did not say anything when Gaddafi, his son and a large number of his supporters were assassinated on October 21, 2011.
The BBC admitted though that Libya has faced continuing chaos since Nato-backed forces overthrew long-serving ruler Col Muammar Gaddafi in October 2011.
It said rival political forces in the east and west and powerful armed militias across the country.
But it failed to see that part of Libya are still under Gaddafi’s influence, somehow or rather.
