U.N. INTERVENTION IN LIBYA 19 March 2011
Demanding an immediate ceasefire in Libya, including an end to the current attacks against civilians, which it said might constitute “crimes against humanity”, the Security Council imposed a ban on all flights in the country’s airspace — a no-fly zone — and tightened sanctions on the Qadhafi regime and its supporters.Adopting resolution 1973 (2011) by a vote of 10 in favour to none against, with 5 abstentions (Brazil, China, Germany, India, Russian Federation), the Council authorized Member States, acting nationally or through regional organizations or arrangements, to take all necessary measures to protect civilians under threat of attack in the country, including Benghazi, while excluding a foreign occupation force of any form on any part of Libyan territory — requesting them to immediately inform the Secretary-General of such measures.
Recognizing the important role of the League of Arab States in the maintenance of international peace and security in the region, and bearing in mind the United Nations Charter’s Chapter VIII, the Council asked the League’s member States to cooperate with other Member States in implementing the no-fly zone. The Council stressed the need to intensify efforts to find a solution to the crisis that responded to the legitimate demands of the Libyan people, noting actions being taken on the diplomatic front in that regard. It further demanded that Libyan authorities comply with their obligations under international law and take all measures to protect civilians and meet their basic needs and to ensure the rapid and unimpeded passage of humanitarian assistance.In that connection, the Council specified that the flight ban would not apply to flights that had as their sole purpose humanitarian aid, the evacuation of foreign nationals, enforcing the ban or other purposes “deemed necessary for the benefit of the Libyan people”.It further decided that all States should deny permission to any Libyan commercial aircraft to land in or take off from their territory unless a particular flight had been approved in advance by the committee that was established to monitor sanctions imposed by resolution 1970 (2011).In tightening the asset freeze and arms embargo established by that resolution, the Council this evening further detailed conditions for inspections of transport suspected to be violating the embargo, requesting States enforcing the embargo to coordinate closely with each other and the Secretary-General on the measures they were taking towards implementation.Introducing the resolution, the Foreign Minister of France, Alain Juppé, said “the situation on the ground is more alarming than ever, marked by the violent re-conquest of cities that have been released”. The Security Council could not stand by and “let the warmongers flout international legality”. The world was experiencing “a wave of great revolutions that would change the course of history”, but the will of the Libyan people had been “trampled under the feet of the Qadhafi regime”. Earlier Council measures had been ignored and violence against Libyan civilians had redoubled.
The current republican regime in Libya was brought to power in a military coup on 3 September 1969. Gaddafi's proclamation that " From this day forward, Libya is a free self-governing republic" was made via a nationwide public radio broadcast made at 6.30am. The inner chart is set for that time in Tripoli. ( from Nick Campion's Book of World Horoscopes).The outer chart is Gaddafi's, not having his t.o.b. I have set it for noon, 1stJune 1942, Sirte, Libya.There are a lot of interactions between the two charts as one would expect. I'll illustrate just a few.It is quite interesting to see Saturn situated at the top of the Libya chart conjunct its Mc and Gaddafi's Venus. This would suggest a certain loyalty and support. However, that same Saturn squares Venus in the Libya chart and Gaddafi's Venus squares his natal Pluto. This is certainly an indication of control and manipulation from the authorities that is not in the peoples' bestinterest (Saturn square Moon/Jupiter mid-point) but for personal gain.That this is likely to build up anger and resentment over time is indicated by the Mars/Pluto midpoint at 6-56' Scorpio, closely aspecting Libya's Ic/Mc, which is also on the Chiron/Moon midpoint. There is a stellium in Libra in the Libya chart that has been activated by transiting Saturn and Pluto. Gaddafi's Neptune (which squares his Jupiter, indicates inability to see the truth of a situation) is on the Libyan Pluto/Uranus midpoint. Tr Jupiter and Uranus have now awakened the Libyan people to that 'truth' and are demanding their much-valued freedom. L.S.
