It’s like the federastic response in Berlin and Brussels to every Euro-shambles: ”We need more Europe, not less.”

The USraeli axis and the military-industrial-security complex associated with it will not be satisfied until the whole world is in a state of permanent revolutionary upheaval, as envisaged by the true intellectual ancestor of neoconservatives: Leon Trotsky.

Glad somebody knows a bit of history.

When the shambolic tale of modern Africa is written, the determination of all parties to cling to lines drawn on a map by European diplomats in the late 19C era of ‘Here Be Dragons’ colonialisation will be a matter for wonderment. It was the OAU that reaffirmed the sacredness of Bismarck-era boundaries at Addis Ababa in 1960: an appropriate venue, since ‘Ethiopia’ was another state that barely existed outside atlases.

Libya had been in Italy’s sphere of influence since before the Great War, as the two colonies into which it naturally divided ethnically. Many of its troubles must have arisen from the attempt to keep them yoked together- like Belgium or Czecho-Slovakia.

What possible concern is it of Britons what species of idiot or maniac runs political dosshouses such as Libya?

Labourites should be asking such fundamental questions, not doing the Henry Jackson shuffle.
