“Instructions to kill, from Gaddafi”

[Shokaract]

In 1994, Hutu state radio played a massive role in the Rwandan genocide, inciting violence and giving direction on how and where to kill Tutsis.

Right now in Libya, Gaddafi is using state television much the same way. As a weapon.On his three state-run stations, supporters are urged to hunt the opposition “alley by alley, house by house, room by room.” It's been reported that state programming is used to send coded instructions to loyalists and hired mercenaries.

It's not too late to shut down Libyan state television and save the lives of innocent civilians. But we must act quickly.

Here's how we can help: Libya uses four international satellite providers (ArabSat, EutelSat, AsiaSat, and NileSat) to broadcast. If these companies drop Libyan state television, the propaganda will stop.

Please sign the petition started by Change.org member Carol Hillson demanding that these satellite companies stop broadcasting Gaddafi's incitements to violence.

Satellite providers like these four companies aren't typically involved in the world of activism. It’s possible that they’ve never been petitioned before.

That's why we believe a global outcry for them to cease their broadcasts in Libya could work. And the faster we can produce such an outcry, the more lives we can potentially save.

Please ask CEOs Amin Basyouni, Michel de Rosen, William Wade, and Khalid Balkheyour -- four men who have the power to save countless civilians -- to stop broadcasting Libyan state television:

We’ve won dozens of victories in the past few weeks, but none would save so many lives as this. Please add your name, then forward this email to friends and family.

Parroting bullshit about genocide and seriously implying that this “humanitarian intervention” is actually humanitarian..

Not only are these hypocrites suddenly silent about “universal freedom of speech,” but they actually want to silence and further weaken a target laid out by imperialists.[/FONT]

Free speech applies to individuals, not authoritarian regimes hell-bent on retaining power regardless of the cost of human life.

I cant understand why many people here think Gadafi is a hero, and continue to defend him after what he did and is doing.

Change.org complaining about propaganda? That's doubleplusgood! I bellyfeel what they're saying.

[FONT="Georgia"]I haven't seen that many people who support him on here, but I'd guess it has to do with him being an enemy of Western imperialists for thirty years (before beginning to ingratiate himself to them in recent years). Honestly, he may not be worth defending, but why should we make it easier for the imperialists?[/FONT]
