The secretary general of the Arab League, Amr Moussa, said today that "the protection of civilians does not need a military operation in Libya. "What happened in Libya is different from the purpose of imposing a no-fly zone, we want to protect civilians and not to bomb more civilians," Musa said in a joint press conference with European Parliament President, Jerzy Buzek, the Arab League headquarters in Cairo.
