United Nations intervention
On 17 March, the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution to impose a no-fly zone in Libyan airspace.[34] As a result of the UN resolution, on 18 March, Gaddafi's government declared an immediate ceasefire, but a few hours later, Al Jazeera reported that government forces were still battling rebels.[35] Even after the government-declared ceasefire, artillery and sniper attacks on Misrata and Ajdabiya continued, and government forces continued approaching Benghazi.[36]
Government forces entered Benghazi with tanks on 19 March from the west and south while hundreds fled the fighting.[37] Artillery and mortars were also fired into the city.[38] Opposition forces managed to beat back the assault after several hours of fighting, claiming to have inflicted losses, including on heavy armor, but confirmed that they suffered 27 casualties. The same day, a Mig-23BN belonging to the Free Libyan Air Force was shot down over Benghazi, after being engaged by rebel ground forces in error.[39] The Libyan government subsequently argued that the rebels had violated the no-fly-zone resolution by using a helicopter and a fighter jet to bomb Libyan armed forces.[40] At the same time, loyalist forces bombarded Zintan, and tanks continued advancing towards the city.[41]
The Libyan government was widely reported to have cut off water, electricity and communications in rebel-held Misrata, forcing residents to rely on wells and a desalination plant. The government denied the claims, stating supplies were disrupted due to the fighting

Real News @ http://revolutionnews.us/ — (LIBYA) NATO bombs food storage facilities in Zeltan, then bombs the Libyan water supply pipelines which brings water to seventy percent of Libya. If that is not enough, NATO bombs a clinic killing seven civilians, all in 2-3 days work.
So non of the above attack resemble "saving civilian lives" by implementing a "no fly zone". It looks more like an attempted regime change, to punish the Libyan people to give up their support for the Libyan government.
What are we to do about this? Turn a blind eye? and just go with the MSM justification for the attempted implementation of a regime change using any means necessary?
This is horrifying news, and I bet it won't get any attention, why should it? Answer to yourselves, why should this get any attention? Because I'm convinced that it won't, because I can't answer the question from the Western perspective either. It doesn't benefit the Western moral so it belongs under the carpet, it doesn't benefit Western interests so it belongs in the trash cans.

FYI, a while ago when I sent this blog out I forgot to tell you something............
When I went looking for the start date of the Libyan war I kept coming across a different facts. Mid February
was the month it seems that the elites are saying the battle started. It's as if the elites are trying to change the facts to reflect something or other or they are trying to stay one step in front of me???
