As images of the lifeless bloodied body of Colonel Muammar Qaddafi flashed across our television screens, I could not help but feel pity for the hundreds of those gun toting jubilant young men who were conned into killing the maverick.Qadaffi reminded me of former U.S.president George W Bush Jnr, they even looked alike. The only difference being the latter got away with murder.
Duped into believing that they were fighting to liberate their country from tyranny, these young men hadn't the slightest of idea that they had just signed off their Libya to the oil wolves until death do the world apart.
Zionist Jews, wanting to establish a solid footing in Qadaffi's Libya, donned NATO uniforms and staunchly argued for a boots on the ground intervention. The citizens of Benghazi was about to be wiped out they cried! We want to help the people of Libya!
The story was bought. Libyan's were hooked!
The real reason as we all know is the huge oil reserves Libya has and the strong desire of some 200 thousand Jews to return to the country. Remember that Qaddafi was also adamant in implementing the GOLD dinar system, a single African currency which would be made from gold- a true sharing of the wealth.He called on all African and Muslims countries to join hands in implementing this currency which would rival the Dollar and the Euro. They would sell oil and other resources around the world only for gold dinars. It was an idea that would shift the economic balance of the world as a countries wealth would be dependent on how much gold they have and not how many dollars they trade and Libya has 144 tons of gold.......
It had nothing to do with protecting civilians.
Wonder where they were when Muslims in the Balkans were crying out for help?
It took NATO almost a full decade to intervene with air power. In Libya, it took one month to mobilize a broad coalition, secure a U.N. mandate,and establish a no fly or drive zone. Libyan's - who had free education,health,and housing, will as from today have to re pay the United States, Britain, and
France, for "setting them free". A life long commitment! The U.S. has already made it clear that Libya's 36 billion dollars in frozen assets will be welcomed as part of the thank you deal.
The maverick is history, he's victims are history.
We will miss his colourful presence and illusional banter.
