Oil Politics Drive Turmoil in Libya

1. The journalist asked at least twice a great question – who’s backing the Libyan general, but her question never got answered.

2. Too much talking. Your not even there, how do you know what is happening? Your not even of the culture, how can you properly speak for the people or the circumstances? Your just repeating what you read from other sources.

3. I am glad someone mentioned France that goverment has done enough shit on this World as the US ,Libya,Syria and many countries they invaded ,UN and US, get your ass outta the World……….I hope they all get Killed in Libya……………..

4. Vijay Prashad, author "Arab Spring, Libyan Winter" an interesting voice on Libya and generally, the M E

5. England, France and the U.S. should experience the same things they did to Italy.

6. Why does the general have the same cars as isis ?

7. Just out curiosity… what exactly IS an "UN-backed" government in the first place? Isn't the UN also responsible for mass murder on their own account? I need more information.

8. This is all about the politics of empire not oil. This struggle just like the struggle of the russian people after world war 2 was against top down tyranny, and where did the imperial forces of america and UK side on that fight? With emperor stalin against bottom up rule. Everything america and the other "western powers" do is slaughter civilians who want bottom up rule and not this top down tyranny of these authoritarian autocratic oligarchs. The same reason hitlery and obomber had to give "aid" to guatemala el salvador colombia brasil and honduras. Now all those countries are completely screwed up ruled by nazi tyrants, that wasn't an accident they purged the police and politicians that don't support the top down tyranny and install criminals. Like they always do it isn't about oil any more than the banana wars were about bananas.

9. It is time, to act against the US interest and to keep the own interest in mind.
   Good move.

10. After the United States and NATO began to bomb Libya in March 2011 – almost daily for more than six months! – to overthrow the government of Muammar Gaddafi (with the completely phoney excuse that Gaddafi was about to invade Benghazi, the Libyan center of his opponents, so the United States and NATO were thus saving the people of that city from a massacre), the Libyan leader declared:

    Gaddafili , “Now listen you people of Nato. You’re bombing a wall, which stood in the way of African migration to Europe and in the way of al Qaeda terrorists. This wall was Libya. You’re breaking it. You’re idiots, and you will burn in Hell for thousands of migrants from Africa.”

11. So now we know the drama we are supposed to have been diverted from with the Mueller Report, and the threats to out Assange. This is what the left hand is doing.

12. Finally. Someone mentioned France. It wasn’t just The United States.

13. Finally. Someone mentioned France. It wasn’t just The United States.

14. Bets on how long before John “Nuts” Bolton and Abrams show up.

15. The International Criminal Court should get busy, with all the perpetrators of the Libyan catastrophe… A whole lot of rope will be needed…

16. Missing in this discussion is WHY Ghadaffi was overthrown and murdered, namely, his ambitions for a pan-African union and banking system that would challenge the petrodollar.

17. Brilliant and incisive reporting of the very kind that we badly need if we are to understand the world and especially the motives of those who presume to be acting in the 'best interests' of the United States. Thank you most sincerely!

18. so how did Obama's "humanitarian mission" turn out?
