These people seem to be weak cucks outside of the bubble of the white man's liberalism.

It's amazing how people behave when gangs of aggressive men wielding blades threatens them. Good thing whites avoid gangs, and knives or any of that stuff.

Shouldn't that read "Slaves from West Africa sold in Libyan markets"?
UN migration agency says selling of people is rife in African nation that has slid into violent chaos since overthrow of Gaddafi
Unlike a lot of people I am willing to argue for the invasion of Iraq. I am willing to argue for involvement in Syria. I am utterly baffled, though, by what Hillary was thinking in Egypt and Libya. I cannot even construct valid sounding arguments for the Obama policies in those two countries.

Migrants from west Africa being ‘sold in Libyan slave markets’ | World news | The Guardian
'West African migrants are being bought and sold openly in modern-day slave markets in Libya, survivors have told a UN agency helping them return home. '
'The organisation is working to spread awareness across west Africa of the horrors of the journey through the personal stories of those who return. '
'Many other migrants flee Libya with similar stories, said Giuseppe Loprete, chief of mission at IOM Niger. “Its very clear they see themselves as being treated as slaves,” he said. '
'His captors asked for 300,000 west African francs (about £380), then sold him on to a larger jail where the demand doubled without explanation. '
'Trafficked people passing through Libya have previously reported violence, extortion and slave labour. '

Well, nothing really new here...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbary_slave_trade
The Barbary slave trade refers to the slave markets that flourished on the Barbary Coast of North Africa, which included the Ottoman provinces of Algeria, Tunisia and Tripolitania and the independent sultanate of Morocco, between the 16th and middle of the 18th century. The Ottoman provinces in North Africa were nominally under Ottoman suzerainty, but in reality they were mostly autonomous. The North African slave markets were part of the Arab slave trade.
European slaves were acquired by Barbary pirates in slave raids on ships and by raids on coastal towns from Italy to the Netherlands, as far north as Iceland and east into the Mediterranean.
The Ottoman eastern Mediterranean was the scene of intense piracy.[1] As late as the 18th century, piracy continued to be a "consistent threat to maritime traffic in the Aegean".[2]
For centuries, large vessels on the Mediterranean relied on galley slaves supplied by North African and Ottoman slave traders.

After a revolt in the mid-17th century reduced the ruling Ottoman Pashas to little more than figureheads in the region, the towns of Tripoli, Algiers, Tunis and others became independent in all but name. Without a large central authority and its laws, the pirates themselves started to gain much influence.
In 1785 when Thomas Jefferson and John Adams went to London to negotiate with Tripoli's envoy, Ambassador Sidi Haji Abdrahaman, they asked him what right he had to take slaves in this way. He replied that the "right" was "founded on the Laws of the Prophet, that it was written in their Koran that all nations who should not have answered their authority were sinners, that it was their right and duty to make war upon them wherever they could be found, and to make slaves of all they could take as prisoners, and that every Mussulman who should be slain in battle was sure to go to Paradise".[8]

Sounds familiar ?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_slave_trade
The Arab slave trade was the practice of slavery in the Arab world, mainly in Western Asia, North Africa, the Horn of Africa, Southeast Africa and Europe.[1] This barter occurred chiefly between the medieval era and the early 20th century. The trade was conducted through slave markets in these areas, with the slaves captured mostly from Africa's interior.[2]

Africa: 8th through 19th centuries[edit]
Slave trade in medieval Africa I n April 1998, Elikia M'bokolo, wrote in Le Monde diplomatique. "The African continent was bled of its human resources via all possible routes. Across the Sahara, through the Red Sea, from the Indian Ocean ports and across the Atlantic. At least ten centuries of slavery for the benefit of the Muslim countries (from the ninth to the nineteenth)." He continues: "Four million slaves exported via the Red Sea, another four million through the Swahili ports of the Indian Ocean, perhaps as many as nine million along the trans-Saharan caravan route, and eleven to twenty million (depending on the author) across the Atlantic Ocean"[87]
In the 8th century, Africa was dominated by Arab-Berbers in the north: Islam moved southwards along the Nile and along the desert trails.

Blacks were never close to a majority in America, so it's mathematically impossible for most whites to have owned black slaves. At the peak of black slavery in the South, only 6 percent of Southern whites owned slaves. If you include the white people in the North, it means that only 1.4 percent of white Americans owned black slaves at the HEIGHT of slavery.
...
An estimated 3,000 blacks owned a total of 20,000 black slaves in the year 1860. One study concluded that 28 percent of free blacks owned slaves, which is a far higher percentage than that of free whites who owned slaves.*
...
In fact, children, white Christians were the first group to make a concerted effort to ABOLISH slavery.

How is it solely called the 'Arab Slave Trade'? Many of the participants were Berbers, hence the name Barbary Coast while the regions were the suzerainty of the Ottoman Turks. Not saying Arabs weren't involved, since they are large part of the population of the Barbary Coast and Ottoman Empire, but it seems more like an Islamic Slave Trade.
True there still is a racist connotation to it, just that Turks and Berbers also participated, rather than solely Arabs.

Arab in the cultural sense I think, islam and arab language basically
It's not for random reason if tunysians don't speak tunysian or lybians don't speak lybian or algerians speak algerian...
