U.N. Exploits Libyan Refugees, Calls for Taxing “Rich” Nations

Bureaucrats at the United Nations want “rich” countries to tax their citizens to pay for an exploding refugee problem, the Financial Times reports today.

António Guterres, head of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, cited Libya’s one plus million refugees as an example of the problem.

United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees António Guterres talks about the refugee issue.

In March, the Security Council passed resolution 1973 authorizing “all necessary measures” to protect civilians in Libya, reportedly victims of Gaddafi’s nominal brutality. The resolution formed the legal basis for military intervention and bombing of civilians now underway in the country.
