University of Michigan Professor Juan Cole has just published an article titled, "An Open Letter to the Left on Libya." .. http://www.juancole.com/2011/03/an-open-letter-to-the-left-on-libya.html .. Cole defends the use of military force to prevent a massacre in Benghazi and to aid the Libyan rebel movement in their liberation struggle.

Juan Cole's letter was posted earlier here .. http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=61398818

In opposition to U.S. intervention in Libya, University of Trinity Professor Vijay Prashad warns the United States has involved itself in a decades-long internal Libyan struggle while it ignores violent crackdowns by U.S.-backed governments in Bahrain, Yemen and other countries in the region. He recently wrote an article published in CounterPunch titled, "Intervening in Libya: Why Nothing Good Will Come of This."
