Libya: The objective of "humanitarian bombing" is death and destruction

27-03-2011 11:34

The objective is not to come to the rescue of civilians. Quite the opposite. Both military as well as civilian targets have been pre-selected.

Civilian casualties are intentional. They are not the result of "collateral damage".

The objective of the media disinformation campaign is to blatantly obfuscate the loss of life of civilians.

Tomahawk missiles and aerial bombings are upheld as instruments of peace and democracy. They do not result in civilian deaths.

18-03-2011 20:30

The following piece about the present and future of independent media projects was included in the latest issue of the Corporate Watch Magazine, which has just been released, on so-called free newspapers. And since it concerns Indymedia more than any other project, we thought it should be reposted here as well, with the hope that it would contribute to a much-needed debate among IMC UK volunteers and users about the issues raised.
