    Amy Goodman what the devil is wrong with your coverage of Libya. This is utter rubbish. By allowing the rebels to take a hard line position that "Gadaffi must go". How can one have peace talks with someone who is gone. this pivotal decision makes us responsible for all atrocities and killings, estimated as 30,000 to 50,000 dead. Now we have apologists for a man we previously labeled the imaginary enemy "Al Qaeda.
