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.

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 Habib Amadu Kabir Njie wrote: > Habib Diab Ghanim wrote: > > > Ghadaffi must be aware of what is going on and he should be personally > > accountable for all these cold blooded murders. > > Habib, > > Are you serious when you claim that Ghadaffi should be held personally > responsible for these atrocities?
