I've Been Thinking:
In Libya the National Transition Council, aka the NTC, announced that they will investigate and prosecute the people who executed Col. Moammar Ghadaffi.
I do not believe they will follow through with this announcement. I think that what they are doing is throwing the West a proverbial bone.
The NTC has been hit very hard for having created an atmosphere of vengeance - not justice. during the rise of the opposition and in its aftermath, after Ghadaffi was deposed and in hiding.
The Ghadaffi killing is the most glaring example, but it is just one example of many.
It is clear from the video that Ghadaffi gave himself up. It is clear that he should have been arrested and not killed.
It is clear that that did not happen - and very few Libyans see the injustice or immorality of that act.
