Mh. So Libyans have fought for their freedom from the outskirts to the capital.
Of course, the sound effects and the bombings makes it an appearance of Libyans fighting for their freedom on TV. The Christians on TV have their way of looking at it: The part of Libya that is under the Libyan Rebels, is the one with majority of Christians.
Mh. We always have our ears towards what the west says. It always sounds gospel truth. Whether its war or freedom or peace. If its western, it sounds good and true.
So the rebel army has finally occupied the Capital. It makes me wonder you know, does that really mean victory? Why did they not occupy the capital then? Aren't they already in Libya? What could be so easy to do by the Libyans themselves?
Oh! I remembered. You can't overthrow a leader or claim victory until the whole country concedes and accepts defeat. The only way history has shown it legally acceptable: a coup d'état.
I wonder what's legal in it anyway? Because the west accepts a coup d'état?
Here is the reaction of the people on the ground. You have destroyed our roads, our schools, our hospitals, our land. Now once you have done rebuilding, get off our land! (middle east speaking, it won't stop. So please just listen and get off).
Why does the west supported rebels not feel victorious? Because, the can't show on tv that they have pointed a gun to Gadaffi's head. What they don't know is that while Gadaffi has been the accepted leader of this land, all that have removed him are still rebels indeed. The blood of the dead, the destruction of the roads and other structures still makes them guilty.
Because look, the masses in the rural don't care about politics whether democratic or what. What they care for, is that they have enough food today, and tomorrow, the children are not sick and have enough food and pocket money to go to school. That's what makes them smile. Which of these who one day have a peaceful afternoon just realise there is bombings outside and their children are dead. Which of these will remember the change of government to be useful? Which of these indeed will forgive the guns that indeed killed their little kids. Do you know?
I have observed how Malawians have reacted on 17th August 2011. Nobody wants such disturbances. Enough is enough!
So indeed. Big Dilemna. So clearly and TV seen by the whole world: guilty. Oil is the motive. Who doesn't know, oh mighty west. Please, put some love in your democratic ways.
Your search for your own freedom you have destroyed a lot of peoples freedoms indeed.
You are strong with big guns and too much money and shoot and buy your way through, but still guilty. Oil.
Look, our African cars are queuing for fuel, and blaming their leaders while you have put a tap on the oil wells you have illegally occupied.
Can we re-define freedom again to what it means? To live freely in your own country, village, home. The degree of freedom, increases inwards but reduces outwards, always! When it does increase outwards its necessarily infringing others' freedoms that is illegal.
To control illegal freedoms there are laws that are at best agreed upon by the neighbours. The whole community does indeed decide at micro-level chose who enforces these laws. The only who can do this best, is the one they have all together trusted to do so.
You may cook up lies and force yourselves to lead but indeed nobody will listen to your judgements though in face they may behave like they are. For you are just not the one they trust to resolve their disagreements. That's all! You are just not their leader. You do not have their trust. Funny huh?
