Tens of thousands of migrant workers , forgotten by USA, Europe who are more interested in saber-rattling, are the real casualties of the turmoil in Libya and eleswhere. Desperate, hungry and poor, they clamour for assistance, but other than non-governmental agencies are left to fend for themselves.
This is a disgrace, Enough of the "war talk", and instead send help to these forlorn and helpless. They mostly come from poorer countries who do not have the means to re-settle them. Also, these countries will suffer economically, now that these migrants will not be able to send money home, which has been a boon to their families and their countries.
USA, Britain, Canada and the other countries who are so quick to send warships, chockful of weapons, should instaed send humanitarian "ships" full of food, water and medicine, but that is so unglamourous. Tough talk ( Cameron in his "Thatcher/ Argentina-like"moment sees votes) Hil/Bama are in a quandary (they fear that the Republicans will see them as weak...not good for votes), Merkel has to deflect from her "plagiarised Defence minister" and the shellacking from the last regional voting and the very unpopular Sarkozy is all "shook up" from the 5 million North Africans in his "quartiers". War for these inept and fading "leaders" is the remedy....."Create external dangers......as Arsitotle advised, and the people will rally around you, and forget the dire problems at home. Temporary relief but no solutions.
