Never forget that when the US and NATO invaded, bombed and regime-changed Libya they did it in the name of “human rights”… and in the process transformed one of the most developed countries in Africa into a place riddled with civil war and infamous for open-air slave markets.

Never forget that when the US and NATO invaded, bombed and regime-changed Libya they did it in the name of “human rights”… and in the process transformed one of the most developed countries in Africa into a place riddled with civil war and infamous for open-air slave markets.
This is a fact, by the way. It was investigated and reported by several major news agencies; CNN even filmed one of the slave auctions. And it’s not a minor thing, it has been documented in many known locations, where auctions were set on regular schedules.
I’ll never forget the reporting, because in most cases the journalists totally failed to draw any connection to the NATO invasion. It was just “wow look at this extremely evil thing… oh well, moving on”, refusing to mention that the evil was 100% brought about by the US, UK, Canada, France etc.
It cannot be emphasized enough, the notion that the states of the imperial core care about human rights in the global South is an extraordinary farce. They are quite happy to produce open-air slave markets in a failed state if it suits their interests.
