Habib and Amadou allow me to jump in your debate to contribute my piece. I'm not
an admirer of
Ghaddaffi for various reasons and I know that most Arabs look down on black
Africans and generally
refer to us as "bilal". My problem is why our African leaders are not condemning
the atrocities
on our people. Is it because of the money?If your own leaders don't respect you
how the hell do
you expect to be respected by others.

Thanks for allowing me to butt in.

                Amadou I do not know if Ghaddaffi personally gave orders but I
know that he could have done something to stop
                the killings just as the Jewish leadership or the other Arab
leaders share the same responsibility in this
                matter.

                I made a point  and it is mine only and that is how I feel . You
may have a different opinion of Ghaddaffi
                but as far as I am concerned he has multiple personalities and
those kinds of people are dangerous

                Have a good day brother
