Gadhafi Poems | Examples


War Criminals

War criminals
Is Putin a war criminal if judged by the western criteria
that makes him, along with George Bush and Tony Blair
war criminals; who can forget Falluja, where thousands
of innocent people were killed in their homes in a hail
of bullets, no one thought of saving the civilians.
I think of Libya the NATO/USA/Britain reduced to a failed
state in the thirst of killing Gadhafi, the eccentric despot
who had done more to bring Libya into a modern country
than anyone else had dreamed of.
He brought water to an arid state and made it green.
There was a peace talk brokered by South Africa, were
Gadhafi offered to resign but rejected because
we wanted him dead, and we succeeded.
The western powers have now managed to make a short
war into a long one using Zelensky as a frontman.
It is Putin they want dead; nothing else matters, not
the death of thousands of civilians caught up in this mayhem.
But for NATO or Brussels risking the life of their own people 
carrying out a policy that eventually will bring Europe to her 
knee by hunger and frost; may they all be damned.

Failed States

Failed States 
So they killed Gadhafi to free Libya and
got the Western world to help them. Alas the rebels 
only fought for what they could get,
 and now Libya is a failed state. They have tried –rebels-
to get rid of Assad with the help of USA, the country is
on its knees, but some nations are seeing through this charade
and are willing to keep Assad in power, for the time being.
It will not be easy the Americans and the Israelis
are doing their best to turn Syria too into a failed state.
it is up to us to stop them

Apparition

The Apparition
I saw a man kneeling beside the dead body Gadhafi 
with a smirk on his face holding thumbs up… eleven 
months later he was slain just like the tyrant…. 
He became an envoy a friend of the wrecked country, 
a  buddy working to make the country a rational state 
the US way; a client state to help oil flow freely to 
the west. But he forgot, as many do, the infamy Arabs 
has suffered in the hands of the west… even if people 
were glad a tyrant was gone they still found the picture 
offensive. For they see the inequity of the selective way 
the west pushes democracy on the weak. 
A ghost looms, a cuckoo in the nest, it will not give up 
until it has full power of the defeated and we blindly 
follow this cuckoo´s call into the abyss.

Lucky You: Libya

The following is a brief list of what the US/NATO can do for your country, if your country
is Libya:

1. NATO’s bombing campaign has killed 718 civilians as of June 7th, 2011

2. NATO’s bombing campaign has wounded 4,067 civilians, 433 of these are seriously wounded
individuals.

3. “Libya’s rebels,” who are presently being supported by the US/NATO campaign “have
arbitrarily detained dozens of civilians suspected of supporting ruler Moammar Gadhafi and
at least one has died after apparently being tortured while in custody.”

*Stats taken from Reuter’s article “Libya says NATO bombing kills 718 civilians,” & “HRW
says Libya rebels detain pro-Gadhafi civilians” by the Associated Press.
