Today UNSC, USA & coalition have bombarded Libya to punish him. Gadhafi's UN statement has been proved by UNSC and US-EU coalition. It is a terror Council.

US Prewsident Obama authorized U.S. military force to engage in Libya with millitary means from Brazil on what happened to be the eighth anniversary of the start of the war in Iraq.
Coalition partners say Gadhafi has failed to adhere to a United Nations resolution that imposed the no-fly zone and ordered him to stop attacks on civilians. The first shot in a U.N.-mandated intervention in Libya was fired by a French aircraft and destroyed four military vehicles at around 1645 GMT, French defence ministry and army officials said on Saturday. The military operation "Odyssey Dawn" lead by US-EU to halt Muammar Gaddafi's advance on rebel forces involved around 20 planes and an area 100 km by 150 km (60 by 100 miles) around the eastern rebel stronghold of Benghazi.
Earlier Saturday, Gadhafi issued defiant messages to international powers.
"I have all the Libyan people with me and I'm prepared to die. And they are prepared to die for me. Men, women and even children," Gadhafi said in a letter addressed to Obama and read to reporters by a government spokesman in Tripoli.
According to a Pentagon source:
The British submarine involved in the operation, codenamed Operation Ellamy by the UK military, was the 130-crew HMS Triumph. It can carry up to 30 weapons, including Tomahawk missiles and heavy torpedoes.
The Royal Navy bought 65 Tomahawks in 1995 at a cost of $1 million (£650,000) each from U.S. defence firm Raytheon Systems.
Two American destroyers, the USS Barry and USS Stout, have been deployed with their support vesseles, each carries up to 96 Tomahawk missiles. 'The total number of Tomahawks in our inventory is classified but I don't think there's any danger of running out. The bigger danger is we know virtually nothing about who's going to control Libya after we wipe out Gaddafi.'
Two amphibious assault ships, the USS Ponce and USS Kearsarge, carrying 1,600 Marines, anti-missile defence systems and helicopter fleets, were also off the Libyan coast, as was the command support vessel USS Mount Whitney. An aircraft carrier, USS Enterprise, equipped with up to 70 fighter planes, was reported to be heading for the area
US-EU coalition says Gadaffi killed 30 civillians so its international community's responsibility to protect (R2P) Lyban people. The US-EU coalition showed its aggression to Gaddafi by bombariding Tripoli with 115 TomaHowk missiles on 20 targets (economic and millitary) killing 50 civillians in one night. They justified attacks on Libya and killing of civillians to destroy Gadafi's anti-aircraft guns to protect UN imposed "No Fly Zone" above Libya. Apparently Gaddafis anti-aircraft guns are unharmed. They were activated later in the early hours of Sunday 19th March. Explosions and anti-aircraft fire thundered in the skies above Tripoli early Sunday. It is also said that US is not taking a "leading role" but taking a "leading edge" firing 115 missiles in one night.
MARCH LIES 1999-2011.
Back in March 1999 we were told that we had to intervene because the Yugoslav leader, Slobodan Milosevic, was "set on a Hitler-style genocide equivalent to the extermination of the Jews during world war two". That wasn't true. In March 2003 we were told that we had to invade Iraq, because Saddam had WMDs that "could be activated within 45 minutes". That wasn't true either. http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2011/mar/20/libya-iraq
Everytime, in every conflict US-EU coaltion made a national crisis an international crisis and they recovered the cost of war by stealing oil or other resources in exchange of the cost of war. They sell/use their expired weaponary on Libya to steal Gaddafi's US$ 31 Billions in frozen accounts. Gaddaffis opposition party is supporting the use of Gadafi's freezed money to spend on so called "humanitarian operation" in Libya. It is apparently a business. The bill (Cost of war) will be sent to Libyan people after war. On the other hand US-EU want Iran to involve in Libya so they can turn to Iran. These US-EU war mongers spreading western imperialism all over the world under the umbrella of UN. They did it in Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Cosovo, and elsewhere. The intervene in internal issues of nations and they divide the nations. What is happening in Libya is another repetition of history. Now its time for action for Russia, China, India to come up with counter coalition to balance the world power and bring western war mongers to justice.

The government yesterday expressed its displeasure over NATO air-strikes on Libya and said the indiscriminate killing of people was not acceptable to any govt. Minister Keheliya Rambukwella told a news briefing that NATO forces had acted beyond the United Nations mandate, which was to protect the civilians in Libya. “The UN sanctions were meant only to protect civilians from the attack of pro government forces in Libya.

Do you think bombarding Libya will bring demoracy? Sending rockets to kill civillians and to destroy their properties, homes, hospitals, military and economical assets in 24 hours which took centuries to built will bring peace? Is this what guardians of democracy ought to do?

Someone says Guardians of democracy ought to get rid of Gadhafi. I ask her did they do the same for Bush and Blair?didnt. They didnt try for illegal invasion in Iraq. will they? NO. If you ask me for better plans/suggestions for Libya. stop Libyan invasion immediately. Stop supporting separatists. compensate Libya for all properties and civillians destroyed by US-EU. Support restablish the civil life. Negotiate for democracy. Democracy must achieve in democratic way. Not buy rockets and bullets.
