Mounting Evidence of Rebel Atrocities in Libya
Pajamas Media ^ | April 20, 2011 | John Rosenthal

While the International Criminal Court has announced that it is investigating charges of war crimes against Muammar al-Gaddafi and other members of the Libyan regime, harrowing video evidence has emerged that appears to show atrocities committed by anti-Gaddafi rebels. Among other things, the footage depicts summary executions, a prisoner being lynched, the desecration of corpses, and even a beheading. The targets of the most serious abuse are frequently black African prisoners. The ultimate source of the footage appears to be rebel forces or sympathizers themselves.

(Warning: Due to the graphic nature of the videos linked below, viewer discretion is advised.)

These are the "people" to whom Obama and Hillary want to give $25 million in U.S. taxpayer money.

Libya rebels will receive $25 million from U.S.

President Obama urges restraint, while wishing the Libyans luck on their transition to Democracy. /sarc

Heard plenty of allahu akbar’s in there as well.

This is clearly a civil-war, with robust support on both sides. It’s not just Khadaffi with a mountain of cash on one side, and all others on the other side.

HILLARY’S WAR & exactly the type of thing we must avoid.

Now imagine you were in the military and got orders to go there and be an adviser. Some UK military are getting those orders.

Beheading and desecration are taught in the Koran. Why is anyone surprised? Anyway, are we the only ones that still fight “by the rules?”. Sometimes I laugh at how naive the press is.

I’m sure surprised. Who would ever have thought that an army of vengeful Muslims on the rampage would engage in actual violence? And after Obama himself told us that we should support these guys? Wow. Quite a shock.

Exactly: How can Muslims fight Muslims and there not be atrocities.

WTF are we doing helping any of these people. As long as they are killing each other that is that many less that will attack us later on.

This is one war where I hope both sides lose. When you are in a trash dump it is difficult sorting the trash out so you may as well burn it all.

Maybe our moslem doctrine should be to help whichever side seems to be losing...a little bit. Wherever islamic jarheads collide.
