President of France proved to be much more ebullient and they have started an extreme action against Gaddafi, the Libyan arbitrary ruler, with severe air strikes on his forces, combatant to his own people. Are Barak Obama, the American president, Nicolas Sarkozy, president of France and German Chancellor Angela Markel really so sincere and are such a great well-wishers of the Muslim communities of North Africa which made them yearning for their freedom from the shackles of tyrant rulers? I think it is not so. Angela Markel and Sarkozy are ‘cultural purists’ and are out with open views of rejecting cultural diversity in their countries, that the west has been proud of having for a long period. They are preaching the right of living in France and Germany only for those who will accept a complete uniformity with the western civilization. The Muslims wanting to keep their religious and cultural identity will either have to merge in the western culture or leave for anywhere else if they are desirous of safeguarding their religiosity and cultural traits. Then what they have in sight while ebullient?
Is not the hunger to have a share in Libyan oil resources, and not welfare of Libyan people, a main reason while waging a war against Qaddafi?
Is it not a case very similar to the war against Saddam Hussain of Iraq almost a decade ago?
