Residents in western Libya say NATO hit hospital


ZLITAN, Libya (AP) — A hospital worker in western Libya said that NATO forces struck a local hospital on Monday and killed seven people, including three doctors.

Libyan government minders brought journalists Monday to the destroyed hospital in the town of Zlitan, about a two hours drive east of the capital Tripoli. The reporters were also taken to several food warehouses that the government said were damaged in the airstrikes and were still burning.

Ambulance driver Osama Mahmoud said three doctors were among the dead at the Zlitan hospital.

"In this whole area there is no military," Mahmoud told The Associated Press.

Can you imagine the news stations here in the US if Libya bombed a hospital (mistake or otherwise)? For some it is only an outrage when someone does it to them, but when they do it 'meh'.

1. No one even thinks the US/NATO is waging war in Libya.
They either know nothing, or it's murky to them, or they think they're "peace bombs," which of course are all together different than evil regime bombs.
