The Associated Press reluctantly reported that Libya's rebels began withdrawing from their front at Bani Walid, approximately 85 miles southeast of Tripoli. After weeks of humiliating defeat at the hands of the city's residents and despite merciless terror bombing from NATO, the city's residents have prevailed in collapsing the offensive, after numerous, and verifiably ridiculous claims by the rebel forces that the town had “surrendered” to them already.
Image: Early September, the corporate media was still faithfully relaying Libyan rebels' constant litany of lies, this one involving the imminent “surrender” of Bani Walid, which would weeks later break the back of the rebel assault and send them slinking back home. By now, the media might afford readers with a cautionary preamble before repeating rebel claims, however, media coverage has only become more surreal.
Quite clearly NATO's self-congratulatory “victory” declared over a month ago after their attack on Tripoli was premature, and the entire future of their operation is still hanging in uncertainty with the reality that nothing resembling the “protection of civilians” is taking place. NATO's complicity in massacring civilians and providing cover for rebel atrocities already seals their stated goals of “protecting civilians” and the premise of R2P as dismal and irrevocable failures. If by victory we mean NATO's success in conquering and despoiling the nation by proxy, even if starting today everything began coming together, it would still be a Pyrrhic victory.
