Funny how when factions controlling our government want something the American Tax Payer supplies money to bomb the water supply of a sovereign nation or other atrocieties whether they want to or not. 

Oh well.... hey... how about them insert favorite team name here.....

Funny how when the rebels sent by our covert ops can't accomplish what they were sent to do, Hillary and company have to show their true colors and start a bombing campaign to do what they implied was the will of the people but was in fact the will of our leadership and their puppet-masters and one or another greedy bunch of bastards.

If it happened to our families here, maybe we would come out of our daze, but with so many years of brainwashing and we are the greatest propaganda fed to us... I doubt we will ever see what is done in our name.

I think the 'Great man made river' was a key reason to attack Libya

The 'mad man of the mediterranean' as Regan called him completed this massive project with no IMF loans

I think he went a bit farther out of line than that though, Windpower.  He wanted to stop trading oil in dollars.... another bad plan.

....but still...I get a little puffed up with pride and teary eyed to know that we have the means to destroy those who would plot against the IMF, the dollar and our grand elite.... the power to blast the eighth wonder of the world to smithereens .... such patriotism...the power to destroy their infrastructure and make thousands of thirsty starving innocent people in some place as far away as Africa....

Just kinda makes you feel good all over doesn't it?

At least its not like it's a real legal declared war because they attacked us eh?  That makes it all better.

Funny how anyone who talks about trading oil for something other than dollars gets bombed.

You got it, Scott.  Don't fool with the elites goose, eh?

Former U.S. Congressman Walter Fauntroy, who recently returned from a self-sanctioned peace mission to Libya, said he went into hiding for about a month in Libya after witnessing horrifying events in Libya's bloody civil war -- a war that Fauntroy claims is backed by European forces.

Fauntroy's sudden disappearance prompted rumors and news reports that he had been killed.

In an interview inside his Northwest D.C. home last week, the noted civil rights leader, told the Afro that he watched French and Danish troops storm small villages late at night beheading, maiming and killing rebels and loyalists to show them who was in control.

"'What the hell' I'm thinking to myself. I'm getting out of here. So I went in hiding," Fauntroy said.

The rebels told Fauntroy they had been told by the European forces to stay inside. According to Fauntroy, the European forces would tell the rebels, "'Look at what you did.' In other words, the French and Danish were ordering the bombings and killings, and giving credit to the rebels.

"The truth about all this will come out later," Fauntroy said.

"Contrary to what is being reported in the press, from what I heard and observed, more than 90 percent of the Libyan people love Gaddafi," Fauntroy said.

Sorry I have had Libyans living in my house in the UK and have spent three months living and working in the country.

That whole report smells bad- the Libyans lived in fear of the secret Police- no one would publicly opose gadaffi for fear of disapearing

Danish forces on the ground - very doubtfull- they are a pasifist army without a history of agresion since the Viking times

If he said british I'd believe it - but commiting atrocities- no way

Nato is commited to air support and no ground troops


Every Libyan I ever met wanted Gadaffi gone and there lives to be free- this was never discussed openly but when I was alone they questioned me and made their views clear.

It was country of opressed people- controled by fear.

Some of the students we had in our house never went back to Libya - they apllied for and got political assylum in the UK- never to return to see their families - they felt life in exile was better.

30 years later one of them still pops in to my parents house to say hi when he's in town

The man made river was a political statement- bringing water to the coastal cities in an ilaborate display of contempt for the european sanctions

Built by far eastern contractors  out of readily available cement

Rather than de-salination plants with restricted western technology

Libya blew up on its own- its people finally deciding to fight for their freedom when they saw what happened in Egypt and Tunisia.

The US was not part of the beginning - but help and support was given to help and continue the revolt

Oil-wise more oil was exported with Gadaffi in charge than will be exported in the next 10 years as it will will take that long to get the country back on its feet and the infrastructure back functioning again.

Thanks for presenting that information. UK.  I don't directly have any Libyan contacts but do from several nearby countries.

I have heard a bit both ways.
