Libya disabled children school hit in NATO strike
Edited on Sat Apr-30-11 11:46 PM by Dokkie
TRIPOLI (Reuters) - Shattered glass litters the carpet at the Libyan Down's Syndrome Society, and dust covers pictures of grinning children that adorn the hallway, thrown into darkness by a NATO strike early on Saturday.
It was unclear what the target of the strike was, though Libyan officials said it was Muammar Gaddafi himself, who was giving a live television address at the time.

-----snip-----

"This is not the place we left on Thursday afternoon."
There were no children at the school when the missiles hit early on Saturday morning, since Friday begins the weekend in Libya. Children had been due to come in on Saturday morning

3. Thanks to NATO bombs, those kids have been FREED from their
oppressive overlords!!

Now all they need to do is get a nice loan from the World Bank,sign over all their natural resources to the IMF, and charge enough tuition to pay it all back!

Everything is double plus good now!

AND the choco ration is up again!!!!!!!

5. A war zone target no doubt, just like the son's house where three grandchildren
under the age of 12 were killed. So much for our humanitarian language, protecting the Libyan people and all. Oil and Currency mark my word. Saddam was going to start using a currency besides the dollar and they took him out just in time, now Gaddafi had threatened the same.
