On Nov 30th Clare Daly MEP railed against the result of the vote on the Common Security Defence Policy ( #CSDP ) report when she took to twitter to declare:

A decade of militarisation in Europe is bearing bitter fruit. But Parliament is on track to draw exactly the wrong lesson. #CSDP report voted today in committee calls for more spending, more weapons, more #NATO.

And she went on to criticize NATO in her address to the EU -see video clip

After 11th anniversary of #Gaddafi's death during #NATO's assault on #Libya - all in the name of freedom, democracy & human rights - we'd do well to remember what happened next: terror, death, lawlessness, rape, poverty, starvation. Libya riven by conflict. That's NATO's legacy.

#Gaddafi's #Libya🇱🇾 was a plank of regional stability. NATO's cataclysm plunged the wider #Maghreb, #Mediterranean, #Sahara & #Sahel into turmoil, seeding conflict & instability in 🇲🇱🇳🇪🇧🇫 & others. But for gore-soaked liberal 'humanitarians,' it's nothing more than a punchline.


The Left stands against militarism & war. Our minority position:

War is hell. But not for those who profit. To them war is business. Behind lofty rhetoric on Ukraine a feeding frenzy is now underway, as #EU countries exploit war to unlock ever greater tranches of public money for armament & militarisation. @TNInstitute
