Word From Putin: West in "medieval crusade" on Gaddafi

I'm highly against the recent Libya Invasions, I think it doesn't make sense that they have to bomb it to free it,and I expected way too much from the AU.. let down both ways...but what others ways could the world help save Libya from Gaddafi? ... Clearly Arab League and AU wasnt doing any progress at that, not their matters to be concerned with..its a sovereign state, until the west comes in and boom...ur mad again? I hope this is not another 'Iraq scene' 

"it allows anyone to do anything they want -- to take any actions against a sovereign state."

"It resembles a medieval appeal for a crusade in which somebody calls upon somebody to go to a certain place and liberate it," he said.

"In Bill Clinton's times," Putin said, "Yugoslavia and Belgrade were bombed. Bush sent armed forces into Afghanistan. A far-fetched and totally false pretext was used to invade Iraq, and the entire Iraqi leadership was eliminated, even children in Saddam Hussein's family died.

"And now, it's Libya's turn -- under the pretext of protecting civilians. But it's the civilian population who dies during those airstrikes against (Libyan) territory. Where is the logic and the conscience? There is neither."

Russia abstained from vote in the UN Security Council authorizing a no-fly zone over Libya.
