Lybia feels, let down, time for some Cameron Compassion?

As link.

Lybias disarming was the great victory of 2003 combined with the removal of Saddam. Here was a Central Medditeranean Nation with OIl that wanted to end being a bully boy with WMD in return for arms limitation so as to invest in economic development. Having been bombed earlier it feared the US fleet sailing home and finishing the unfinished business of 1986.

Have we followed through on our end of the baragain?

If not why not?

After all in the business of economic development and Global Aid it is in our interests to ensure that the Southern Med is at least neutral if not pro western inteests.

With French problems with / coming from Algeria historically and the social dislocation on its streets eain interceeding years, and the problem of people smuggling into the EU, having Lybia on side is a massive way of reducing the threat and at the same time facilitating an EU wide Aid approach toi all the states from Egypt, Lybia, Tunisia, Algeria, and Morroccoo, plus the territory formerly known of as Spanish Morroccos.

If teh Chinese are doing the Livingstone / Rhodes and building roads and railways elsewhere its something we ought to be considering as a way of developing economies and peaceful enagagement. After all the new power bloc rivallry might not be won on the USA out producing weapons but on tackling social ills and problems the world over and 'winning hearts and minds'

So Come on Cameron if you want us to hug hoodies, can you at least hug this one BurQa so as to stop his successor playing up this region?
