Friend, yesterday Citizens for Global Solutions Education Fund ran a full page ad in the NY Times (thanks to an anonymous donor) asking the United Nations to continue protecting the people of Libya - and the response has been overwhelming! I wanted to share with you a blog I wrote about the ad and what needs to happen in Libya moving forward. We are collecting petition signatures to ensure that the U.S. works “through the United Nations to continue protecting the people of Libya from atrocities committed by their own government.” The ad calls for a standing UN peacekeeping force.
I wanted to share with you a blog I wrote about the ad and what needs to happen in Libya moving forward. Please let me know what you think about our path forward in Libya. I’d love to hear from you.
We are reaching out to Americans because we now live in a new age where the international community has accepted its responsibility to protect. But you can’t protect babies from 30,000 feet nor should this be the job of the U.S. and its allies alone. The United Nations must have the support and tools that it needs to get these jobs done:
- Deployment of U.N. Peacekeepers On the Ground to Protect Libyan Civilians;
- Provision of Food, Water, Medicine and Shelter for Displaced People in Libya;
- U.N. Sponsored Elections to Bring Democracy and a Legitimate Government.
To see a copy of the ad and read more about what we're calling for in Libya read the rest of my blog here.
In Peace,
Don
