Letter: Libyan fallout
UN Resolution 1973 authorised action "to protect civilians and civilian populated areas" but Nato took this as permission to shoot up Tripoli's suburbs and kill civilians. Serious questions need to be raised about who authorised yet another failed attempt at the state assassination of a foreign leader, which yet again resulted in the deaths of children. Of course, as was spelt out at Nuremberg, only the defeated are ever guilty of war crimes, otherwise there might be a case for Obama, Cameron and Sarkozy to answer.
