Museveni slams West's action on Libya


Tuesday, March 22, 2011



Kampala (AFP) - Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni on Tuesday denounced the West's military action against the regime of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, terming it hypocritical and urged negotiations to end the turmoil.

Museveni accused the West of double standards over imposing a no-fly zone on the north African country while other Arab nations were also being shaken by popular revolts.

"I am totally allergic to foreign, political and military involvement in sovereign countries, especially African countries," Museveni wrote in a statement published in the state-owned New Vision daily.

"The Western countries always use double standards. In Libya, they are very eager to impose a no-fly zone. In Bahrain and other areas where there are pro-Western regimes, they turn a blind eye to the very same conditions or even worse conditions."

"The actions of the Western countries in Iraq and now Libya are emphasising that might is right."

Museveni also wondered why appeals to the United Nations to slap a no-fly zone on Somalia - where he has deployed troops for an African Union mission - had gone unheeded yet it is home to al-Qaeda-linked rebels blamed for regional instability.

"Why? Are there no human beings in Somalia similar to the ones in Benghazi? Or is it because Somalia does not have oil which is not fully controlled by the Western oil companies..."

Opposition accusations

The Ugandan leader is on a five-member AU high-level panel on Libya and called for negotiations between Kadhafi and the rebels to end the unrest.

"Colonel Gaddafi should be ready to sit down with the opposition, through the mediation of the AU, with the opposition...," he said.

Museveni himself has faced opposition accusations of fraud and calls for mass protests after elections in February extended his 25-year-old rule, putting him among Africa's long-serving leaders.

The former guerilla leader seized power in 1986 and had received military assistance from Gaddafi. But Museveni criticised the Libyan opposition for not fighting on on their own without help from the West.

"If the Libyan opposition groups are patriots, they should fight their war by themselves and conduct their affairs by themselves.

"After all, they easily captured so much equipment from the Libyan army, why do they need foreign military support? I only had 27 rifles. To be puppets is not good."

Perhabs he is hoping Gaddafi transfers his wealth prior to being executed. What next he will offer refuge to gaddafi and his arm of female warrioreths?

Muselini only acts to secure dollars he has no other purpose in politics.

Not that I agree with where He is going with this but He is 100% spot on in that the reason the West or the world doesn't give a shid about Somalia is because they have no oil

yea its true


in reality though these "protesters" in Libya are not protesters they are rebels, and they are depending 100% on the west to fight for them even though they have everything from fighter jets to tanks to numbers. Gadaffi doesn't even have a offical army, just some goons from his tribe

Libya has Africa's largest Oil reserves. They are a VIP Country! Hence, why there are no suprises when they dashed to save the Country from Qaddafi, finally, they get a winner in this Arab-Revolt.

On a Serious Note in modern art of war and associated propaganda, when a aggressor engages in war it is in his interest to also initiate antiwar sentiment and elect adequate opposition on which he has the potential to discredit at any given time. 360 control of the atmosphere of war. Control: Advocates, detractors(with potential discredit value) and satisfy legitimate opposition's tendency to cause greater damage to cause.

Ready made conclusive success.

Russia, the arab league, Musavini, china and ... all preorchestrated opponents of the war efforts.

The world is satisfied, the population of the aggressors are satisfied and you are laughing all the way to the bank $$$ystematic engagement.
