October 28, 2011African immigrants are OSTRACIZED and LEFT TO DIE in LIBYA in the wake of "Victory for Democracy" by Libyan rebels.
With Moammar Gaddafi who welcomed them, gave them jobs, and protected them now DEMONIZED and EXECUTED at the URGING of the Neocolonialists of the West, they are left to the VULTURES by the RACIST Islamists who inherited the new "Democratic Libya"!
What will NATO, in its infinite wisdom, that bombed Libya into this REGIME CHANGE, do to "Protect Civilians" now that the Islamists who inherited the new "Democratic Libya" does not want them?
I SUGGEST to these "bleeding heart" Western Neo-colonialist SERIAL BUNGLERS, who in their "democratic fervour" created this "humanitarian crisis", that they MAKE AMENDS by transporting these people to EUROPE.
In EUROPE, lovingly take care of them, restore to them their lost jobs, and grant them permanent resident visas in European Countries to boot.
YES, ALL 2,000,000 of needy Black Africans that Moammar Gaddafi provided for in the past!
How will they transport them to EUROPE you ask?
Use PLANES, Dear Henry, Use PLANES!
REMEMBER those vast Armadas of High Tech planes that NATO used to Bomb Libyan Government Forces and lavishly transport Weapons of War, and insert Special Forces Troops to win the "Democracy War" for the Islamists ... err, pardon me ... I mean the "Democratic Forces" ... in Libya?
Don't let them fly home empty ... you FOOLS; now transport the Black African refugees in LIBYA to EUROPE in them!
OR, will NATO undergo an ephiphany and JOIN FORCES IN COMMON CAUSE with the reviled ISLAMISTS on this ONE ISSUE, and REFUSE TO FLY THE REFUGEES TO EUROPE because, after all, these PEOPLE ARE BLACK? Who wants Black People, eh?
Oh My God, was that DEVIL INCARNATE Moammar Gaddafi the only man of COMPASSION who CARED for BLACKS, the destitute, the needy in this world?
AMAZING revelation, a'int it ... that the REAL DEVILS always were the HYPOCRITES of the Neocolonialist West?

Libya's African migrants face harder life post-Kadhafi
By Simon Martelli
October, 2011
On the coast outside Tripoli, a squalid refugee camp shelters hundreds of African migrants who found work under Libya's former regime, but are now jobless, discriminated against and unable to return home.
Squatting in the derelict buildings of what was once a training centre for the ousted Libyan leader's special forces, they face racist abuse, attacks and robberies as they wait each day, hoping someone will offer them work or bring emergency food handouts. Clothes hang on makeshift washing lines. Piles of rubbish lie everywhere.
"Since we came here... we've been hoping, praying to God, believing one day maybe help will come from somewhere, because all we had has been taken," said Anthony, who worked on a building site before the conflict forced him to seek refuge in Sidi Bilal. "I've been beaten and robbed several times, even in the camp here... Sometimes, when we go out onto the streets, people start throwing stones at us because we're black," he added.
The camp's 700 residents are mostly young Nigerian men who fled the capital two months ago when it fell to the revolutionary forces that last week crushed the final pockets of resistance by Moammar Kadhafi loyalists. They are a tiny fraction of the number of people displaced by the conflict.
Over 700,000 migrant workers have left Libya since February, according to the International Organisation for Migration, but tens of thousands remain.
The Nigerians, the largest migrant community in Tripoli, found casual work before the city fell,washing cars or labouring on farms and building sites, jobs shunned by most Libyans.
But with many locals angered by claims that sub-Saharan mercenaries supported Kadhafi's regime, they now face hostility in their host nation.
"It is a problem having the Africans here," said Adil, one of the camp's security guards. "It's not healthy. They don't eat good food, they fight each other, and some of them came without passports, bringing diseases with them, only to cross into Europe." "The best solution is to send them back to their country," added the former fighter from Zawiyah.
Most of the camp's residents say they plan to return home following Kadhafi's ouster, because they no longer feel safe. But without cash or passports -- Nigeria does not have a consular representative in Tripoli -- they are currently unable to do so, stuck in a limbo with no way forward or backwards.
"Some of them don't want to go back. They've risked everything to make it this far," said Jeremy Haslam, the IOM's chief of mission in Libya. "But there are others who are eager to return, and they are desperately hoping that their temporary travels permits will be issued soon."
There are growing concerns among the humanitarian community that Libya's immigration policy will be tightened by the National Transitional Council. The new regime is already believed to be restricting aid to the camp, fearing that it may become a permanent settlement.
"We believe that since Libya is free from the past government, it should be a free Libya for everyone," said Anthony, one of the few residents who plans to tough it out. "Going back to my family empty handed would not be a good idea for me. So I think I prefer to stay here, to try to make some money to take care of them," he said.
But most in the camp see no future for themselves in the new Libya. "I came here to work and make money for my family. But when the crisis started everything changed. Now I just want to go home and start my life afresh," said Larry, a 33-year-old father of three.
