" Orwell concluded that, at the end of the day, matters were rather simple in Spain. 'In essence,' he wrote, 'it was a class war; all else was froth on the surface.' It is also a class war in Libya: the few who have everything and are willing to murder and maim in order to maintain their power; the many who are fighting for their dignity. While he would not be surprised, Orwell would be as dismayed by the pusillanimity of the West today as he was 75 years ago.."
