[...] One thinks especially of LSE director Howard Davies, and his staff who only decided that it was wrong to take Gaddafi’s money after the killing of protesters this February; the thousands who had already been killed or tortured in the Abu Salim prison were beneath their notice. Or Sarah Leah Whitson, the Middle East North Africa director of Human Rights Watch, who was seduced by Gaddafi and his slick international socialite son Saif al-Islam (apparently still alive and at large) into heralding a “Tripoli Spring” when the regime was actually happily murdering dissidents like Fathi Eljahmi.

Those who gathered in May to participate in the Oslo Freedom Forum see, through the eyes, of Mr. Eljahmi.

In the end, those who oppress the likes of Vladimir Bukovsky, Armando Valladares, Paiden Gyatso, Harry Wu, Kang Choi-Hwan, Leyla Zana, and Elena Bonner, will be worn out.
