Protests in the arabic world - wag the dog?
Today the Swedish foreign minister Carl Bildt states 'We have to wait to decide regarding a Swedish participation in any military actions, as we still do not know who leads these actions. There is Eu, Nato and FN and there even could be an ad-hoc administration of different countries.' Well, right now I am wondering who is crazier: Ghaddafi or the rest of the world? Military action without distinct leadership? Civil victims and no one knows who is leading the operation? Bildt is also talking about an ad hoc leadership... I would say that this is an all new expression in modern military action. It is like saying: well, we still do not know who is responsible as long as we don't know what the result will be. This one sentence is actually summarizing the problem that we in west need to solve. We need a new, more distinguished leadership that can re-unite EU, that can make us forget all that happened in Irak and that gives the countries and their people back their credibility towards countries south of the mediterranean. Maybe, an increased credibility and enhanced authority could prevent from further military action in the future. Or at least: make it more trustworthy!
