You expect me to base my opinion on that nebulous garbage? Anyone can post something bogus on You tube. Libya under Gaddafi was like North Korea. People had enough of it and over threw him. The only thing tangible NATO did was establish a no fly Zone so the rebels could overthrow him faster with less casualties. Gaddafi was a ruthless dictator, that imprisoned and killed a lot of Libyans.
The revolution began as peaceful public protests, and only when the urban crowds were subjected to artillery, tank, mortar and cluster bomb barrages did the revolutionaries begin arming themselves. When fighting began, it was volunteer combatants representing their city quarters taking on trained regular army troops and mercenaries.
The Great Man-Made River Project was started in in 1953, and is still ongoing. The funding for the project was from the U.N under Gaddafi. It was unfortunately bombed by NATO because Gaddafi had placed anti - aircraft guns at the site. But the entire system is still in place, my guess, now that Libya is free construction will resume,and the last two phases of the five phase project will finish with loans from European banks.
Don't get this twisted brother. I don't expect you to believe anything you don't want to. What I clearly recognize about most Americans is that when it comes to war, there's little difference between a democrat and a republican. Both will only see what they want to see.
"Lies and a conspiracy theory" is EXACTLY what I heard from republicans when faced with the truth of Iraq.
What you think you know about the destruction of Libya .. clearly you don't know as much as you think you do.
You didn't know about the lie the Obama Administration presented to the UN to bolster their drums to war. I gave you the irrefutable facts .. that you ignored.
You claimed that Gaddafi didn't have the support of his own people. I gave you the facts that very clearly refuted your claim.
I've given you facts that clearly demonstrate that the US used Al Queda terrorists to fight our war in Libya.
Whatever you choose to believe brother is fine with me. I don't expect awareness, nor the ability to honestly criticize one's own political party from everybody. Sort of why I'm an Independent.
Yes, the US used Al Queda terrorists to fight Gaddafi.
Yes, we lied our way into war no differently than Bush did in Iraq.
"loans from European banks" :0) .. now a Rothschild Bank .. and the West has its hands on Libyan Oil.
Libya was prosperous and its citizens enjoyed the prosperity from their oil .. and had a high standard of living. They didn't need loans from European banks, didn't need a Rothschild Bank .. and sure as hell didn't need the West to profit from Libyan oil more than the Libyan people.
I posted facts .. I don't expect you to believe anything.
