BNF youth wing backs Gaddafi
"The fake uprising against the Libyan leader is another strategy applied by the Western governments. Those uprisings are both unfortunate and unjustified and should be criticised in the strongest terms," he said.
Mogorosi said that their position on Libya is premised on the fact that Gaddafi developed his country from a hopeless desert into a middle-income country envied the world over. He said there is no tangible evidence of human rights abuse in Libya save for the Western propaganda, which aims at portraying the Libyan leader as a dictator.
He maintains that most rebels fighting in Libya are mercenaries, hired by Western powers to oust the Gaddafi regime after realising that the combatants are inexperienced fighters. "If it were not for the hired mercenaries the war would have long ended. These mercenaries operate under the name of NATO. The unfounded nike mens acg sandals 2011allegations to the effect that Gaddafi forces are killing civilians are there to divert the attention of the people so that they won't realise the truth. These are lies to whip up people's emotions for them to turn against Comrade Gaddafi. The Libyan forces always ask civilians to vacate areas where they know there's going to be a fierce battle with rebels in rebel-held towns. The mercenaries operating as NATO are the ones who are killing innocent civilians. Co-ordinated air raids by the so-called NATO are the ones killing civilians as evidenced by their jet fighter which bombarded a rebel's car and the rebel leader was fuming over that to the extent of labelling NATO 'irresponsible'.
He also accused NATO of not assisting them," he said. Mogorosi said the rebels have been heavily armed with powerful and sophisticated machines mounted by the Western powers.
"Gaddafi led government has created jobs for different nations as evidenced by thousands of French nationals as we saw them being evacuated from Libya. Finally the BNFYL would like to wish Gaddafi a healthy life and success against imperialism," he said.
Meanwhile, ruling Botswana Democratic Party (BDP) secretary for publicity, MacDonald Peloetletse said Swaziland is a constitutional monarchy, adding that Mswati did not impose himself on the Swazis.
He said in Libya there is no democracy and that Gaddafi has never been elected to office, and that now people "say they don't want him, he is killimg them with bombs," he said. The BDP spokesman said he is not surprised the BNFYL supports Gaddafi, adding that they have been aligning themselves with hardliners like Fidel Castro.
He said if they continue with their hardline Reebok ZigTech online approach they will never win elections in Botswana, as their politics is irrelevant to Botswana. "Mswati has never killed his people as Gaddafi is doing," he said.
