Freedom Fighters ... NOT "Rebels," for the love of a duck!

Freedom Fighters ... NOT "Rebels," for the love of a duck!

Colonel Gaddafi is not only a brutal dictator, but a rebel without a cause--other than his own billions of dollars tucked away in Swiss bank accounts and yes, the US Defense Industry. Why didn't we listen to President Dwight Eisenhower more than a half century ago?

The brave Freedom Fighters who are opposed to Gaddafi are not rebels but citizens! And again, I repeat: FREEDOM FIGHTERS!!

It's very strange to read of the people of Benghazi and Misurata as being rebels. They are not rebels. They are protectors and freedom fighters, but certainly not rebels.

Let me quote some powerful words spoken by Ed Schultz on MSNBC and written in the Huffington Post:

"The rebels are those opposed to peaceful solutions in Libya. The head rebel in Colonel Gaddafi, who invaded Libya in the 1960s. He wants to control Libya again despite the people of Libya wanting him to leave.

Colonel Gaddafi is a rebel without a true cause. he is inclined to totalitarian methods and anarchy. He obfuscates and misleads people who want orderly change.
See Colonel Gaddafi for what he truly is! A cruel rebel.....

He organizes the killing of Libyans to maintain his control over wealth. He is the true rebel to the cause that the majority of the people of Libya support. Ordinary people in Libya want simple rule, goodly respect, human dignity, shared life, and mutual participation, not dictatorship. Instead, the rebel Colonel Gaddafi uses the country's money to pay for an invasion force that keeps him in power.

Yes, Colonel Gaddafi is and was the real rebel. The opposers to his rule are ordinary people thrust into a war they do not want, into killing they abhor."

It is absolutely imperative that the U.S. step in and help these marvelous people in whatever way we can!
