Libya and Switzerland

Taki is on splendid form this week, not least in relation to the Libyan oil blockade of Switzerland:

Here’s what the Swiss should do immediately as well as permanently: ban all Libyans from entering the country. Expel all Libyan diplomats and Libyan passport holders. Freeze all Libyan assets until Hannibal Gaddafi gives himself up and is tried in a Swiss court of law. Demand an apology from the head clown for blackmailing the only truly democratic country in Europe. Then throw the little scumbag in jail and make him pay millions to the beaten servants. Then sit back and watch Gaddafi fold quicker than you can say accordion.

The whole article is great. Read it.

Switzerland is one of the very last genuinely self-governing and self-respecting countries left on earth, so the Swiss might just do as Taki (who knows their country well) suggests. Here’s hoping.

Note that it takes a proper conservative - anti-neocon, duly anti-war, and relentlessly critical of the Gulf monarchies on which the George Bushes and Hillary Clintons of the world are financially dependent (and which are buying up the economies of every Western country except truly sovereign Switzerland) - to say something like this.
