(Please post in urgent news forums...)
My fellow journalists and I have just received this email (pleading for help) from our colleague journalists in Tripoli:

Please can somebody help afford protection for international journalists as per Geneva laws for Human Rights

"Thierry Meyssan and Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya under death threat in Tripoli..."

The post on their website




in Tripoli, the bombings resumed around 10:20 this morning. They are directed against certain objectives, relentlessly assaulted by NATO. The fighting also resumed around the Rixos Hotel where certain Libyan leaders and most foreign journalists are still entrenched. From the Rixos, the order was given by so-called "journalists" from the United States to bring down Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya and Thierry Meyssan. Three states have offered diplomatic protection to the collaborators of Voltaire Network. However, trapped in the city, they have no way of reaching the respective embassies.


"Media professionals are increasingly at risk of being wounded, killed, detained or kidnapped while reporting in armed-conflict situations. Robin Geiss, an ICRC legal expert, talks about the protection to which they, as civilians not taking part in the fighting, are entitled under international humanitarian law."
His words, for the above...

Yesterday they also posted how Nato is doing a carnage in Tripoli aiding Al Qaida:

Nato Carnage in Tripoli

Anybody can help? or spread the message?
Can anybody also help some of the other innocent civilians also?

Everything is mixed up right now. Nobody knows who's fighting who.

"An unjust peace is better than a just war."
Marcus Tullius Cicero

"All war is deception."
Sun Tzu

"Battle is an orgy of disorder."
George S. Patton

Well I don't know what to say anymore... is this the destiny of all freedom writers?

Please may Somebody then contact Ron Paul, so what? To save lives only a hero can do that. We all need a little courage just like our 2 colleagues now in Tripoli.

ATS has some heroes, and we all know it. May somebody do something... Divine help would be greatly appreciated too!

(Please mods, put this in Urgent news, I didn't know what i Pressed to be in Conspiracies...)

Why would you wish to promote something like rumours coming from a war zone?

The whole story sounds very suspicious.

Why were these journalists / political activists (hmmm???) in Libya. Its a war zone. What did they expect.

Do you know these jounalists personally.

Why do you think they are in fear for thier lives. They are considered political activists and now they are in trouble they are pleading for help as jounalists?

What were they doing in Libya that they are now in fear for their lives that Gadhafis regieme is falling?

Before you present an appeal like this I think you should provide some information and details about why of all the people now in fear for thier lives in Libya these two people need to be saved???

Strange story and one I am not sure I would trust.

I googled the names you mentioned and see the same message posted on
various conspiracy/alt news websites. Seems rather silly to me to seek help
from people not in a position to help. If they realy are in trouble tell them to
contact their national embassies not random people on the internet...

Meyssan recently publish this from Liby:

"Four powers - the United States, France, the UK and Qatar - have combined their technical means to intoxicate the "international community". These are mainly CNN (which, although private, interacts with the Pentagon’s psychological warfare unit), France24, the BBC and Al Jazeera.

These media are being used to falsely attribute to the governments of Libya and Syria crimes they did not commit while covering the crimes that are committed by the secret services of the aforementioned powers and NATO."

"-with a consortium of satellite channels which transmit images of nonexistent events in Libya and Syria. Their aim is to make people believe the majority of Libyans and Syrians want to overthrow their political institutions and that Muammar Gaddafi and Bashar al-Assad have massacred their own people. On the basis of such media intoxication, NATO attacked Libya and is about to destroy Syria.-"

www.voltairenet.org...


Does he believe that Libya and Syria governments have not being butchering and murdering their own people???

Really?? Thats a pretty big claim. I don't agree with his views and I guess this is why he might be worried for his safety.

We are all members in the IFJ. (www.ifj.org)
They are in danger, that's what we received as message from them.
Many are in danger also. We are trying to help by asking for a general ceasefire to help the greatest number of people.
If fighting can be stopped than it's good for everyone, no exceptions.
They were there same as they have been many times in dangerous conflict areas, while this time we are all sure they didn't expect it'll be so fast to spread within the capital. They are journalists, and journalists' jobs are not always behind desks.
We are just trying to help. If you can do something about it, then... great!
And thank you for your questions, i hope something good can be done.

Everybody is guilty. No government is innocent.
But it's true that the western media have exaggerated immensely the facts & actually Nato has backed up Al Qaida in these countries. Weapon shipments have been caught by different neutral countries while the source and the end-users are the two I just mentioned. More proof?

This is a plea for help, we are trying to make it heard.
When someone like them sends such a message once as a last call, how on earth can we contact them back?
Just like throwing a message in a bottle in the sea... (No-replies)
Well I'm not going to waste my time anymore by arguing, this thread is only to be heard by someone who can help or for prayers to be made. Thank you for your interests and comments. Regards to all ATS.

Never mind guys/gals. Sometimes I regret being an ATS member.
With good intentions we were trying to help, we didn't ask for money nor anything materialistic.
Thierry Meyssan has always represented a lot of views supported by a lot of ATS members.
But maybe it's his time to go.

I thought it was incredibly sweet of you to post this, regardless of wheather it turns out to be true or not; you heard that someone was in trouble and needed help and you actively sought it the best way YOU knew how. I don't know much about these people, and aparently some ATS members do not agree with these reporters views, but you sensed a human being in danger and wanted to help. Perhaps its because i'm feeling sentimental right now, but good for you. Its nice to see people caring about other people.

Thats a really silly and childish commet. I just think if you are going to come onto the site to make an appeal for help for someone you should provide full information.

I found it strange that a journalist was appealing for help when Gadhafi's regeime was crumbling. Didn't make sense. You did not explain why?

Then I only do 1 or 2 searches and find that this man has been publishing his beliefs that Libya and Syria governments did not commit the crimes they are being accused of.

Now I now why he is looking for help.

Best of luck to them. I'm sure there is a lot of people in Libya at the minute finding that maybe they backed the wrong side.

Now I see why you were arguing with the idea I posted.
I think you missed the point I mentioned in my 1st paragraph where they both claimed in their urgent message that they were threatened to be brought down by other journalists. That's all. Anyway, whatever... have a nice day behind your keyboard.

That's true, we are both journalists of the same international league.
And we defend freedom of speech and here we were trying to help another journalist who is always threatened to be silenced by pro-westerners.
Freedom of speech is regardless of any sides that one can take. I share a lot in common with his ideas, but a lot also I find them exaggerated. This thread is not meant political. Anyway, I don't think anyone can do anything. It's too late, check the news. And we don't know what happened to him.

Being a journalist in a war zone is a very dangerous job and they are targeted as truth is the first causality of war. I wish them the best of luck in keeping their head down and getting out alive so their story can finally get out one day.
