Lets start with Libya where the United Nations Report to be published soon is very disturbing. Seven thousand people either executed without trial or else being held under harsh conditions. The use of torture is beingly used by the new government of the National Transitional Council add to this the execution of Gaddafi without trial.
I was sympathetic to the National Transitional Council in the Libyan civil war.But it was obviously a war between to bad sides.The tyrant Gaddafi and the National Transitional Council who also use illegal judicial methods.
We can only hope that an independent working class movement starts to develop amongst the Libyan working class. Also the Libyan people must resist the sale of its state owned industries to western capitalist companies.
In Syria the situation is terrible. Atrocities are being carried out by both sides in the conflict the government of President Assad and the Syrian National Council. As in Libya it seems to be war between two bad sides.The Russian government seem to be putting forward the only sensible solution to the crisis negotiations between the two sides leading to the holding of free elections.
The western powers do not care about the ordinary people of Libya,Syria or the middle east. Hence their support for the dictatorships in Bahrein and Saudi Arabia.
What is worrying is that a western intevention in Syria could lead to a Russian intevention thus leading to a world conflict.
In conclusion we can only hope that in the end democracy prevails in the middle east. But the key battle must be to fight any western intevention in the middle east in the future. As such an intevention could lead to a global conflict between the western powers and Russia and China. This would be a tragedy for humanity
