Does Mirena Make You Infertile




April 14, 1986. In response to a terrorist attack, sponsored by the regime of Muammar al-Qaddafi, has claimed three lives and two hundred wounded in a West Berlin nightclub, the United States and Britain bombed military installations and Libyan presidential palaces. Size blatant act of 'unilateralism' attracted the immediate condemnations of the UN General Assembly and the vast majority of European countries (including France and Spain, who denied the use of its military bases to U.S. and British), and of course China and the Soviet Union. Neither took to emerge on the streets of massive worldwide demonstrations against the last show of madness and arrogance of brutal warmonger Ronald Reagan and his faithful lieutenant (or 'prostitute', as the rate Gaddafi himself), Margaret Thatcher. Of course, since then the rabid 'mad dog' (Reagan 'dixit'), which Libya had become a real 'rogue state' that promoted international terrorism, it became increasingly tame and docile. Unfortunately, satraps like tend not to understand another language, since, as history shows, interpreted as weakness in the slightest concession on the part of the enemy.

But times in the landscape of international relations have changed a lot. Now the firm is not carried, both diplomatically and militarily (the inevitable two sides of the same coin), to deter criminals draconian and totalitarian power, but the rhetoric and pretty words. And of course, especially after the Iraq experience, the 'multilateralism'. Long ago, in sum, that the hawks have been replaced by pigeons. To the extent that we have as a leader of the free world to a Nobel Peace Prize surprisingly 'preventive', so may be forced to keep illustrious merits as 'peace' in their always difficult enforceable as president of the most powerful nation on earth.

is not surprising therefore that the international community is called to attend as a spectator limited to civil unrest arising in the Maghreb and the Middle East. In the case of Libya, shameful inaction has led to the emboldening of the murderous despot, who, not content with bombing clean repress any outbreak of rebellion and massacre their subjects, is allowed to boast about it and threaten to continue to sow terror. Unfortunately, there is no Reagan that goal at waist as in 1986. The worst thing is that Gaddafi himself, no matter how crazy he is, knows well. If by chance the dictator is finally defeated and reach freedom, the Libyan people have little or nothing to thank the Western democratic powers, which will once again (if ever) late and wrong.

For its part, the liberals committed to the uncompromising defense of the oppressed and peace in the world, including our ineffable artisteo 'zejatero', has not seen fit in this case to take to the streets to express their rejection of mass killings perpetrated by the Libyan tyrant. Has again become clear that the Left which claims to be the critical conscience Western interventions only excites the United States and Israel, perhaps precisely because they are democracies. In contrast, dictatorships, especially if the last name 'socialist', you must let them run over her like human rights. Your thing.
