The post you are reporting:
Barry, I had written: ten thousand Tuaregs, not tens of thousands.
The Colonel, according to some reports first hand, was killed by a NATO airstrike over Sirte as they bombed a convoy of cars.
That there was such airstrike has been confirmed by the commanding NATO officer operating in Italy.
Peter, I have never made any reference to UKIP when writing about Libya, but was expressing my own views, namely that the Government in London should have kept out of it and asked the two sides to come to talks and a peaceful solution. And that the UN charter was abused by Call me Dave (Col. Dave).
Furthermore, I was stating facts as I found them on the news, with references to sources coming from many different channels, and not publicly supporting either side involved in the Libyan civil war.
UKIP has not been involved in the Libya war, and I have never dragged UKIP into it.
As I publicly stated at the start of western military involvement in Libya, I would never go againt our Country as the rebels did against theirs, but seek the Democratic solution.
Adding to this, I would never ask a foreign power to attack Britain, nor would I join a foreign power that militarily attacked our Country, but would take up my position on the seashore rifle and bayonet in the hand to fight any invader, regardless of whether it would see me fall, as I wouldn't choose slavery in place of British Independnce.
I would never surrender!
