Marco Pannella (NRPTT): Gaddafi will not be able to testify at the Hague on the Iraq war, the greatest world crime of the last 20 years

Statement of Marco Pannella, leader of the Nonviolent Radical Party, Transnational and Transparty (NRPTT):
« On the death or murder – elucidations are in order – of libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi I wish that truth will soon be told. It grieves me to know that he will not be able to testify at the Hague, in an international trial that could restore the world’s rights to truth and knowledge regarding the greatest, maybe, of his criminal deeds.
Without his help it would have not been possible to fulfil the greatest, perhaps, world crime of the last 20 years: to have waged war on Iraq on March 20, 2003, to avoid the break out – thanks to Saddam’s probable and truly possible voluntary exile – of democracy and freedom, along with peace.
His two accomplices George W. Bush and Tony Blair, principals and responsibles for the war in Iraq – whose consequences still affect the Middle East, while “the West” is still accountable for having used a “weapon of mass repulsion” – are infamous more than him, for they have betrayed their oaths, their countries, their duties. As Nonviolent Radical Party we still struggle to atone for this lie, with truth – it is our primary goal, perhaps, today. Until the day we will not be able to return truth to the world, we will not have fulfilled one of our primary goals.
The death of Muammar Gaddafi strikes me very much. He was a killer – he accepted to be so – but he managed, in every way, to get paid very, very well for it, for this infamous role. He was the killer for these two accomplices: Bush and Blair – far more infamous than him, as traitors of their word, traitors of their Law, traitors of their civilizations, traitors of their peoples. We would have needed – as with Saddam and all the other “Cain” – his life and not his death. Without him, I think, it will be difficult to unravel some filthy and dirty “details” about this tragic chapter of contemporary and human history. »
