Is the disarmament of the rebels in Libya real?

15
An ordinary person in the course of events occurring in the territory of Libya, can develop a sense of the real deja vu. Still, how many “democratic” operations under the banner of the overthrow of the totalitarian system have happened in the world only in the last decade. The cadres of universal fraternization between NATO members and Iraqis about the capture and barbaric execution of Saddam Hussein have not yet had time to go to the archives, as already on the screens joyful faces of liberated Libyans loom on the screens. However, despite all the similarities with the Iraqi and Afghan wars, there is a Libyan operation and a completely different side. If in previous cases of “democratization”, the Americans, together with NATO, changed the existing system practically without the support of the local population, then in Libya such support is evident. So it seems that the main sowers of democracy in the world should rejoice, but something still does not give peace to the Western world. What is this? - try to answer this question.


Is the disarmament of the rebels in Libya real?

The situation in Libya turned into a full-scale confrontation between the army of Gaddafi and the so-called "rebels" with the clear support of the latter third countries. These countries actively supplied very scattered crowds of people with various kinds of weapons, including MANPADS, small arms, explosive devices. If today the question of overthrowing the colonel is almost resolved, then the question is how to hint the "winners" that it would be nice to give the rifle back and return, remains open. One can imagine how the belligerent opposition members of the Jamahiriya will react if an uncle arrives in American or French uniform and “asks” to return the weapons provided to the owners. At best, he will be asked to retire for good - for health, and at worst - he will also be forced to respect the new Libyan authorities with the help of a machine-gun bursts from the barrel, courtesy of the allies.

By the way, with the Libyan authorities is also not entirely clear. It seems that they have their leader, Abdel Jalil, but with all due respect to this man, he is unlikely to succeed in consolidating society after a bloody war. There is still need to know the principles of intra-Libyan relations. In fact, the Libyan state, even under the iron rule of Gaddafi, was a confederation of various clans. If the interests of these clans were respected, then everything was quiet and peaceful, and if not, then be trouble. That is the trouble, or, as they call it in the West, liberation and they came to the Libyan land. We can definitely say that in such a situation, the leader of each clan will try to grab a piece of cake sweeter and bigger.

Let's not forget that the European and American "partners" also want to get their share. And the word "share" here, perhaps, is not even quite appropriate. These citizens, who are already cunning, want to get everything: oil and gas fields, control over the country's transport system, the function of indirectly managing all the resources of the Libyan state. But will the rebels, whom the Allies led to Tripoli, want so easily to give back what the West so desires. The question can be called rhetorical. Already today, there is a tendency for the rebels to accumulate not only the weapons with which they were supplied by NATO, but also the weapons seized as trophies.

It is worth saying that among the so-called fighters for the liberation of Libya there are quite a few people involved in terrorist groups. For al-Qaida today, Libya is a real arsenal, where you can perfectly replenish stocks of weapons without spending a cent on it.

Already, many European and Middle Eastern (primarily Israeli media) are sounding the alarm about the uncontrolled proliferation of weapons from the territory of warring Libya. Under the guise of the winners of Colonel Gaddafi and his army, people with machine guns and grenade launchers cross the Libyan-Egyptian border almost unhindered. From there, weapons are delivered straight to Gaza through a network of underground tunnels.
Many politicians, public figures are already calling for the transitional Libyan authorities to begin disarming their army. And here the question again arises: will people who are accustomed to earn a living want to be destroyed? Apparently, not only Colonel Gaddafi, but also European states can get into the rebel trap. Armed people may well begin the “anti-cross” campaign, seeing how their Muslim brothers are “impoverished” in London, Paris and other cities. These people may come up with the idea that if they succeeded in throwing Muammar himself off the power pedestal, then others are just “pshik” for them.

Based on such considerations, in the near future Israel and Europe can be covered by a real terrorist wave with the support of Libyan weapons. Only by the most modest calculations of samples of one only small arms in the hands of insurgents more than one hundred thousand units. If you add to this bombs, grenades, shells and MANPADS, then the terrorist underground can only rejoice in such an arsenal ... It turns out that Sarkozy, Obama and other advocates of democracy in Libya themselves are sawing the branch on which they sit. Sophisticated politics - nothing can be said ...

    Attention! You do not have permission to view hidden text.

    Why ask stupid questions? Of course, they will disarm, then again and again, and then they will catch up and surrender their weapons ... It will be like in Somalia ...

    If you agree with everyone personally, it will be like in the author's article. And the team will come from above. "Surrender your weapon" and they will surrender. Or go to the "article." The top is bought.

    They will surrender something, of course, but they will hide a lot. They also share power, cut money.

    What are you arguing about? No one, most likely, will seriously engage in collecting weapons from the population. First, only a strong police regime with the support of a strong army can carry out such an action. Neither one nor the other is expected in Libya. Secondly, the forces that have muddied the bloody massacre in Libya benefit from maintaining controlled chaos in the country and pursuing a policy aimed at breaking up Libya. Therefore, weapons will not only not be seized, but, most likely, additionally supplied.

    The USA and Europe, of course, will isolate or destroy all serious weapons, and leave "personal" weapons, so to speak. Otherwise, how to maintain chaos among the population there? They don't need stability.

    Now it looks like a mountain of gold on an angry anthill.
    There will be some order, it’s necessary to pull out a gold coin !!! And then these unfortunate rebels will blow up oil pipelines if they don’t pay, and Europe does not need interruptions.

    The war in Libya finally tore the blanket from the so-called Western democracy and showed its true beastly face, showed the futility of the UN as a deterrent and set a precedent for a complete disregard for the laws and norms of international law.
    In fact, the World embarked on the path to another war for the redivision of the world. What laws and moral standards are there when the global financial system collapses ...
    And the proliferation and accessibility of weapons is one of the directions of this path.

      I am generally struck by your naivety !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
      In Yugoslavia there was no UN decision at all! And what did it stop the West ???
      The UN is a post-war anachronism !!! The West has put an end to the existence of the UN; it’s only people like you in the hope of International Law and Democracy!
      Wake up! The world has changed! The war for resources goes on the planet! The right of the strong is the only and right decision! Do you really think that the United States will begin to repay debts and cut rations to its citizens .............. this will not happen when !! LEARN HISTORY !!

    Those who are dissatisfied with the existing regime will always be there, they need weapons to confirm their strength, but they already have one, and to give an instrument of strength is to admit their weakness, therefore defeat. I would not want, but from the experience of recent conflicts, the course of the conflict is only just beginning ...
