Yeah, locusts have been liberated from Ghaddafi's oppression and are now flying freely in the skies of North Africa.

I am curious how will the capitalist media justify this when mass hunger breaks out in North Africa.

They'll blame Gaddafi for it...

Quote:
NAIROBI, Kenya — Colonel Gaddafi continues to wreak havoc on the desert parts of West Africa from beyond the grave...

The Gaddafi link? Desert locusts are common but controllable pests except when, as last year, civil war means the experts can't treat the breeding grounds to stop them swarming.

You see, Gaddafi can rightly be blamed for this, firstly because he started the uprising and civil war, and secondly because he did not surrender fast enough when the bands of criminals and Al-Qaeda sympathizers and NATO fighter jets began kicking down his door.

This is surreal...
West really blames everything on "evil dictators".

NATO also destroyed Gaddafi's Great Manmade River project, which may make newly greened land return to desert again, making water more expensive for domestic and agricultural consumption.

I thought the thread title was a bit of rhetoric initially... like calling capitalists "hyenas and jackals".

It's quite something! I'm almost impressed.
