The NATO War on Libya
Canada's dirty role in Libyan war Stephen Harper's "New Canada" creates a "New Libya" Canadian firm gave military drones to Libyan militants Illegal violation of UN Resolution 1973 happened one month ago, but we weren't told until after the occupation of Tripoli.
"They bombed and therefore they shall reap" Canada bombed Libyans, and now they owe "us:" Who will get the prizes? The NTC has already said it will reward the countries that bombed Col. Gadhafi’s forces. “We don’t have a problem with Western countries like Italians, French and U.K. companies,” Abdeljalil Mayouf, a spokesman for the rebel oil company Agogco, was quoted by Reuters as saying. “But we may have some political issues with Russia, China and Brazil.”
Canada contributed a disproportionate amount to Libya air strikes: sources
Baird signs bomb destined for Libya: "Free Libya. Democracy." Free Libya. Democracy
Libya transition 'won't be perfect,' Baird cautions "In keeping with a long-held air force tradition, Baird signed a Canadian bomb destined for Gadhafi's infrastructure with the message: "Free Libya. Democracy." Someone else had already written another message on the same bomb: "This postal service don't strike."

Libyan opposition fractures one day after Canada's John Baird recognizes them Physicians are taught "First, Do No Harm." Why has Canada ignored this maxim?
Canada's Mission in Libya Extended Baird also announced that the Canadian government is officially recognizing the National Transitional Council of Libya as the legitimate representative of Libyan citizens.
Members of their Transitional National Council (TNC) in Benghazi last month detained their military leader, General Abdel Fatah Younes, on suspicion of treachery, lured him away from his bodyguards and murdered him. This week the head of the TNC, Mustafa Abdel Jalil, sacked his whole government on the grounds that some were complicit in the killing.
At Last! The Head of Ghad ... General Younis "It is surely one of the great strategic screw-ups in the history of war and intelligence analysis. In March, after the second UN Security Council resolution used by NATO to launch its bombing campaign, the predictions were that Tripoli and thus Ghadafi would fall within two or three weeks. Right and left alike, though not yrs truly, said it was a sure thing. [...] The same day this news of Younis’s killing came, Britain recognized the rebels at the legitimate government of Libya and gave them the okay to take over Libyan government facilities in London. There seems to be civil war in London, since foreign secretary William Hague had come off his hardline stance against negotiations with Tripoli. By way of thank you, as his men pumped bullets into Younis, Jalil swiftly requested the $25 billion in Libyan government funds, held by NATO powers, which if turned over, -- which I strongly doubt -- will no doubt enter many a private rebel account, not to mention private NATO accounts – which aim was evident from the start, when Benghazi opened a “central Libyan bank.”

There's one other flag, too: Qatar's."
