NATO’s “Qana Massacre” at Majer, Libya

By Franklin Lamb

NATO’s air-strikes at Majer killed 85 people, including 33 children, 32 women and 20 men...

At Majer, NATO chose to bomb three neighboring compounds and visitors examined a total of five bombed-out houses. There was no evidence of weapons at the farmhouses, but rather mattresses, clothes and books littered the area...there was no military presence in the homes that were bombed...

After the first three bombs dropped at around 11:00 pm (2100 GMT) on Monday, many residents of the area ran to the bombed houses to try to save their loved ones. NATO then instantly struck with more bombs slaughtering 85 Libyans...

[NATO] has resulted in the killing, maiming or wounding of approximately 7,800 Libyan civilians between March 29 and August 9, 2011.

A survey of NATO bombing sites, ground inspections, cataloged serial numbers from unexploded ordnance, examination of bomb and missile fragments at civilian sites in Western Libya, and consultation with Libyan military sources confirm what two US Senate Armed Services Committee staffers and international lawyers have postulated. That NATO...committed war crimes and crimes against humanity at Majer, Libya on August 8, 2011...

The NATO massacre at Majer requires international law suits that achieve nothing less.
