It is just over 100 days since the lynch-mob murder of Libya’s former ruler Muammar Gaddafi...At the time, President Barack Obama took to the White House Rose Garden to hail the assassination as the advent of “a new and democratic Libya”...The evidence and testimony provided by aid groups and human rights organizations over the past week paint a very different picture. A criminal imperialist war that ended with a brutal murder has, unsurprisingly, yielded a regime of terror, torture and repression.
