Fidel Castro Ruz: The Flood of Lies Regarding Libya!

Libya has the highest life expectancy on the African continent, because education and health receive special attention from the State. Even the cultural level of its population is without doubt the highest in that region of our world. The Libyans have also provided jobs for hundreds of thousands of workers, which have carried out that country's ambitious plans for production and social development. It has enormous income and more than adequate reserves in convertible currencies deposited in the banks of the wealthy countries from which they are able to obtain consumer goods and sophisticated weapons to defend their proud nation. Now, Libya is struggling against a colossal campaign of lies, unleashed by our mass media, which has resulted in confusion by those who want to invade that country in the name of: Human Rights. Some time will have to go by before we can really ascertain what has already happened in that prosperous nation. Prestigious broadcasting companies such as Telesur has sent reporters and cameramen to both Libyans on opposite sides of their dispute, to provide a more accurate picture about the current events in that country. Without question, the young people who were protesting in Benghazi, including men, and women wearing their veil were expressing obvious indignation.
