Support for the people of Libya

I want to express my support for the people of Libya. There is no possible excuse for the use of helicopter gun ships, heavy weapons nor foreign mercenaries to attack and kill the peaceful demonstrators. The people of Libya, like all people everywhere, have rights to free speech and freedom of assembly.

The United Nations Security Council should declare a no fly zone over Libya and the United Nations Human Right Council should immediately send a delegation to investigate human rights abuses in Libya. The delegation should be supported by United Nations troops if necessary to assure its safety and access.
