Libya: SSA abandoned to their fate

The bodies of mercenaries SSA exhibited by the angry mob in Benghazi have awakened old cliches in Libyan land where Africans have always been primary victims of racism.
In Libya, it is not good to be Saharan. The echoes of "mercenaries SSA" by the press meet a Fund that traditionally attributed to the wrong role "black." Snapshots are persistent in Libya, where hundreds of thousands of African immigrants live by their wits, waiting to force their way to Italy. However, the tropism of Muammar Gaddafi for Africa, born after his disappointment in the Arab world, was never accompanied by a legal opening and to the formal labor Saharan exploitable to thank you. Every year, thousands of Malians, Nigerians and Cameroonians were deported forcibly to desert, but that African governments stir. The announcement of the presence of SSA in the pro-schemes, almost makes you forget the presence of various nationalities (African, Eastern European, etc.) in these squads paid for gold. But why reduce all sub-Saharan present in Libya to mercenaries?

The mainstream media today that evoke these soldiers bloody from Nigeria, Chad, but also from Eastern Europe, forgetting that their primary victims are primarily African. It is in Sierra Leone, Liberia, Central Africa, DRC and Côte d'Ivoire, that these men in the shadows have mowed the most lives. Today in the Libyan magazine, about 100,000 sub-Saharan never regularized, living the fruits of their labor in the building in general, are excluded from the airlift deployed by major powers to repatriate their nationals. These are not mercenaries, but they are seen by such a population who blames Gaddafi for giving Libyan money to Africans. Forced into hiding for fear of being lynched, they are forgotten by their African States (which do not take their responsibilities), regional organizations and the African Union. Only Senegal, Nigeria and Rwanda have so far sent planes to repatriate their nationals. The African Union has not condemned the excesses of Qadhafi (his best donor) would gain a lot out of his silence.
