for the homeless and the disabled, free education even for those who wanted to go abroad to get it. We cannot have oil money paying for such things so we go and we show them what democracy is all about.

I will never forget that brutal war crime in Libya, nor will most of the world, especially Africa. As Desmond Tutu said about the horrible admission from Hillary, 'the murder of Gadaffi should have made every decent person in the world recoil'. But we do not recoil at murder and torture, we should be ashamed, some of us are.
