I'm arguing with people that think there were massacres in 2011 and that Gaddafi "threatened" to carry out more on a wider scale.
This is on an Internet forum from the 2000s.
Help me out here. Give me sources, if you can. I'm trying to convince these people, but it's been a long time since I've looked into the topic, and I'm going by memory here.
The only investigation was done by a UK commission, so obviously they are being very diplomatic towards their own government that was part of the war crime coalition in Libya. Basically, they conclude that the US-armed rebels were the ones causing most of the massacres and the NATO coalition used their own crimes as a pretext to invade.

Thank you so much!~
Just used the article down below.
So far?
Silence from the other two.
I've also brought up the consequences of the invasion, such as open slavery in the streets of Tripoli (capital of Libya).
