					<description><![CDATA[Am I ever slow, at times.

I have just figured out the reason Dalli seems to cling like super glue to Gaddafi.

He figures that as soon as he finishes the sentence he is serving, he will be kicked out of Brussels with no prospect of ever occupying any other position within the EU.

He will have no option but to return to Malta where no prospects exist for him other than retirement.

But knowing him, he will not be ready to retire so he is counting on the long shot of Gaddafi surviving the mess he got himself into and that he will be willing to share his tent with him.  One never knows, eh?]]></description>

You know, Kev, it&#039;d be a lot easier to take you seriously if you didn&#039;t just treat all this as some sort of intellectual exercise just because you’re bored out of your tiny mind

Since that is all it is to you, you might want to spend some time in the loo thinking about how Dalli&#039;s business interests may have conditioned the views he expressed. You might even work out that the reason for his offensive remarks about and derogatory attitude towards Libyan people generally is that he mostly mixes with the wrong sort. ‘Arse-licking, opportunity seeking career politicians who have long stopped thinking about anything but their careers’ is an apt description as any of the only EU official you openly admire.

While you&#039;re sitting around deconstructing the lies upon lies upon lies that bedevil your erudition entertaining yourself with delusional ravings about power structures that only you can understand, people are going missing, the dead and the dying are dragged away and dumped out of sight, and the surviving live in dread that their turn will be next.

Since you know most things that ordinary souls do not, you could tell all the missing people&#039;s relatives where they could find the broken remains of their brothers, fathers and sons but that they’ll have to wait until you have resolved your philosophical quandaries first.]]></description>

Oh yes, he does. In a way, it&#039;s like Saif&#039;s too. Plan A is to stay as EU commissioner, Plan B is to stay EU commissioner, Plan C is to stay as EU commissioner.

And imagine Saviour Balzan&#039;s videoblogs if John Dalli were removed...]]></description>

Perhaps, ciccio2011, had you been paying attention to what is really happening and not watching soap operas on BBC News &#038; Cohort, you would have spared yourself the embarrassment of being grouped with the unknowing.

You cannot know what Gaddafi really said because you&#039;ve only followed the edited versions.

Let me just congratulate Commissioner Dalli for his gall and honesty; for telling it as he believes it is, instead of giving us the standard lie that goes down the line of a horde of arse-licking, opportunity seeking career politicians who have long stopped thinking about anything but their careers.

Commissioner Dalli is not a politician; he is a very senior EU official - an EU civil servant, if you will - who rose to the occasion and exposed the lie.

You can say he is influenced by his interests in Libya. I give no damn. And you can say Gaddafi is a dictator, and I say, let us get rid of ALL dictators then, but first, let us deconstruct the lies upon lies upon lies which bedevil even the most erudite among us, because illusions blind all those who succumb to them.

And for those who are still not undertanding, let me just tell you that for the past two weeks, had the BBC and cohort staged their soap opera in occupied Palestine or Al-Maliki&#039;s Iraq, or any other location where protestors are being killed and tortured, whipping up the same frenzy and drumming the same war drums, then we would have had the same media effect worldwide.

But there&#039;s a time for everything and the time now is Gaddafi o&#039;clock, not for the Libyan people&#039;s sake, but for the sake of this &#039;revolutionary wave&#039; that&#039;s being handled by our overlords sitting high above our representatives&#039; heads - the Camerons, the Obamas and the Gonzis, who are but minions of a higher order, some knowingly, others not.

But let me not confuse you. Carry on watching the emotional level at Xarabank, brought to you by the high intellect of Peppi Azzopardi, where you can rightly sympathise with the victims, and forget the wider picture which, at this rate, you will NEVER come to understand.]]></description>
