In Libya we are being asked to make a choice between two unacceptable choices, continuation of the government in Tripoli or its overthrow by the West. This breaches the provisions of UN Security Council resolution 1973, forbidding the provision of arms to anyone in Libya, not just the government in Tripoli. Britain, France and the US are no friends of the Arab revolution. The regime’s enemies have wanted it for years, and now the Arab revolution is giving them the opportunity. Like Iraq, Libya will have been destroyed as a unitary Arab state.
