【新唐人2011年2月25日訊】中東和北非的反獨裁示威浪潮持續擴大。近日,統治利比亞40多年的「狂人」卡扎菲,效仿中共六四事件,殘暴屠殺抗議民眾,遭到國際社會強烈譴責和制裁。利比亞政府高官、軍隊警察、駐外使節紛紛倒戈,利比亞第二大、第三大等多個城市相繼起義,卡扎菲政權搖搖慾墜。
突尼斯和埃及的「茉莉花革命」,引發利比亞各地民眾大規模和平抗議示威,總統卡扎菲窮兇極惡死保獨裁政權,2月21、22號連續兩天派戰機轟炸首都的黎波里,動用坦克和僱傭軍開槍射殺抗議民眾,甚至連救護車也掃射。
國際人權聯合會說,利比亞至少已有700人被殺﹔另有1400人失蹤。而意大利外長23號指出,利比亞的鎮壓已造成超過一千人喪生。
美國總統歐巴馬23號首度譴責說:「這些苦難和流血事件令人髮指,是無法接受的﹔恫嚇並下令射殺和平抗議者,以及加劇處罰利比亞人民也一樣。這些都違反國際普遍準則,必須停止這種暴行!」
歐巴馬指出,利比亞政府必須對其行動承擔一切責任。美國政府正在考慮對利比亞實施雙邊或多邊制裁。
歐盟譴責卡扎菲的暴行與恐嚇,並決定對利比亞進行制裁,其中可能包括禁發籤證和資產凍結。法國和德國呼籲歐盟考慮暫停同利比亞的經貿關係。德國總理默克爾指出,卡扎菲已向利比亞人民宣戰。
聯合國安理會敦促卡扎菲結束暴力行為。聯合國人權高級專員皮萊(Navi Pillay)呼籲對利比亞政府鎮壓示威者展開調查,並指出這種暴行可能構成反人類罪。
秘魯率先宣佈與利比亞斷絕外交關係。阿拉伯聯盟已暫停了利比亞的成員資格。
英國首相卡梅倫22號在科威特議會發表演說,他譴責卡扎菲暴力鎮壓的同時,坦承英國曾經為了穩定,而支持了一些專制政權是錯誤的。
他說:「幾十年來,一些人辯論說,穩定需要高壓政權的統治,而那些改革和開放將導致不穩定。最近(中東)發生的事件證實了,否定人民的基本權利並不能維持穩定,而是恰恰相反。」
目前,利比亞民眾的抗議活動不斷擴大,要求卡扎菲下臺的呼聲越來越高。被視為卡扎菲政權二號人物的內務部長阿比迪,與司法部長等高官,相繼辭職倒戈。卡扎菲兒子賽義夫的一位高級助理薩萬尼也辭職抗議。
利比亞軍方也出現反對卡扎菲的聲浪,東部的軍隊已經倒戈,東部軍隊的最高指揮官馬赫穆德少將說:卡扎菲儼然是一位暴君。他指出,卡扎菲一死,利比亞就會因為內戰而分裂的說法是一種宣傳。
目前,反對派和嘩變的軍隊已經佔據了利比亞整個東半部地區,包括第二大城市班加西(Benghazi),他們成立了當地的臨時政府。
23號,第三大城市米蘇拉塔(Misurata)成為第一座由反對派控制的西部大型城市。西部其他城市和南部城市也都有示威發生。利比亞多個城市相繼起義,與當年辛亥革命中國許多省市紛紛起義獨立頗為相似。
與此同時,越來越多的利比亞駐外大使辭職抗議血腥鎮壓示威,利比亞駐埃及領事館降半旗致哀。利比亞駐美國大使以及駐聯合國大多數官員,都呼籲卡扎菲立即下臺,以避免更多的流血。
22號卡扎菲在電視講話中,以中共出動軍隊坦克鎮壓天安門學生運動為例,氣勢洶洶為自己武力鎮壓民眾辯護。
當年參與天安門運動的旅英民主人士邵江說:「卡扎菲是在給自己鎮壓尋找藉口。實際上,天安門鎮壓模式在整個世界中產生的反響是非常巨大的,都是把它當作一個非常負面的,就是政府殘酷鎮壓和平示威請願的示威者。那他實際上從整個獨裁者中和專制政府中,恐怕能找到的最惡劣的就是中國了。」
在嚴控網絡輿論的同時,中共官方媒體繼續作淡化和歪曲報導,極力維護卡扎菲的形象,把抗議民眾說成恐怖份子,封鎖利比亞當局射殺抗議民眾的實情。
不光是歐美國家,甚至連被視為盟友的伊朗和哈馬斯政權,23號也譴責利比亞當局向示威者使用武力。而在24號中共外交部記者會上,外交部發言人馬朝旭再度拒絕譴責利比亞針對平民使用武力。
卡扎菲以天安門血腥屠殺作自我辯護,在海內外中國網民中引起一片嘩然。有推特網友指出,這讓全球人們看到,原來獨裁者對人民的血腥鎮壓,是一脈相承的。
外界評論指出,在反獨裁的歷史洪流面前,卡扎菲和中共的專制暴行,會讓更多的民眾和官員覺醒,加速獨裁政權的崩潰,同時加重獨裁者自身的罪孽。而和平解體中共的希望,在於全民在退黨大潮中拋棄中共。

International Condemnation of Gadhafi』s Atrocities Accelerates the Regime』s Demise
The anti-dictatorship wave in Middle East and North Africa continues to grow.
Recently, Libyan dictator Gadhafi mimicked the 1989 Tiananmen Massacre and brutally killed protesters.
This met with strong condemnation and sanctions from the international ommunity.
Libyan high-ranking officials, military and police officers and diplomats in foreign countries defected in succession.
Uprisings occurred in the 2nd and 3rd largest Libyan cities.Gadhafi』s dying regime is on the verge of collapsing.
The democratic movements in Tunisia and Egypt have led to large-scale peaceful protests throughout Libya.
Its despot Gadhafi desperately held on to his power by ordering warplanes to continuously bomb the Libyan capital Tripoli on Feb. 21 and 22.Tanks and mercenaries fired at protesters and ambulances.
International Federation of Human Rights said,at least 700 people were killed and 1400 went missing.Italian foreign minister said on Feb. 23 that over 1000 died.
President Obama condemned Gadhafi』s atrocitieson Feb. 23 for the first time:
“The suffering and bloodshed is outrageous and it is unacceptable. So are threats and orders to shoot peaceful protesters and further punish the people of Libya. These actions violate international norms and every standard of common decency. This violence must stop."
Obama said, the Libyan government must take full responsibilities for its actions. The U.S. is considering bilateral or multilateral sanctions.
EU condemned Gadhafi』s atrocities and decided to implement sanctions against Libya (e.g. freezing assets).
France and Germany urged EU to suspend its economic relationship with Libya. German Chancellor Merkel said Gadhafi has declared war on the Libyan people.
UN Security Council urged Gadhafi to end the violence. UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay called for an investigation of the crackdown. Such violence may constitute “crimes against humanity."
Peru was the first to sever diplomatic ties with Libya. The Arab League has suspended Libya』s membership.
In his speech at Kuwait’s parliament on Feb. 22,British PM Cameron condemned the violent crackdown.He admitted that in the name of stability, UK』s support to authoritarian regimes is wrong.
Cameron: “For decades, some have argued that stability required highly ontrolling regimes and that reform and openness would put stability at risk.
As recent events have confirmed, denying people their basic rights does not preserve stability. In fact, it does the reverse."
The Libyan people’s protests are continuously growing.Calls for Gadhafi to step down are gaining momentum.His senior officials and the regime』s previous No. 2
Interior Minister Abdel Fattah Younes al Abidi defected.Gaddafi’s son Saif』s senior assistant Youssef Sawani also resigned and joined the protestors.
Libya’s military also started to oppose Gadhafi. The army in Eastern Libya have defected.Its commander Major General Suleiman Mahmoud said: Gadhafi is nothing but a tyrant. He pointed out that the argument that Gaddafi’s death would plunge Libya into a civil war is a propaganda.
Currently, the opposition and rebel troops occupied Libya』s eastern half, including 2nd largest city Benghazi.They have set up a local interim government.
On Feb. 23, the 3rd largest city Misurata became the 1st major western city controlled by the opposition. Demonstrations occurred in western and southern cities.Several cities in Libya have been uprising, similar to China』s evolution of 1911, when many provinces and cities were uprising and declared independence.
More and more Libyan ambassadors in foreign posts resign in protest of the bloody crackdown on protestors.Libyan consulate in Egypt flew flags at alf-mast.
Libyan ambassadors to the U.S. and officials at UN all urge Gadhafi to step down to avoid more bloodshed.
On Feb. 22, in a televised speech, Gadhafi used CCP』s Tiananmen Massacre as an example,aggressively defending his violent crackdown.
Tiananmen movement participant Shao Jiang:Gadhafi was looking for an excuse for his suppression. Tiananmen crackdown model had huge repercussions.The whole world views it as very negative. Authorities brutally suppressed peaceful demonstrators. Among all the dictators and totalitarian regimes,I think the Chinese government is the worst.
While strictly controlling online public opinion,CCP』s official media continue to report distorted facts, going all out to defend Gadhafi』s image.They described the protestors as terrorists, and blocked the truth about the bloody crackdown.
Besides the U.S. and Europe, even its perceived allies Iran and Hamas also condemned Libya』s crackdown.However, on CCP』s foreign affairs press conference
held on Feb. 24, its spokesperson Ma Chaoxu refused again to condemn Libya’s use of force.
Gadhafi』s use of Tiananmen Massacre as self-defense caused an uproar among Chinese netizens. Some Twitter users have pointed out that this shows all the people in the world, bloody suppressions by dictators are all the same.
Commentators pointed out, in the historic wave of anti-authoritarian movements, Gadhafi and the CCP’s authoritarian brutality will awake more people and
accelerate the regimes』 collapse. The hope of peacefully disintegrating the CCP
is the people』s abandonment of CCP by quitting it.
