There is no question anymore as to why the Obama administration is attempting to impose a change of the regime of Libya.
On March 17th I wrote about the invasion of Libya being about two main objectives: privatizing the national oil company and the state-owned central banking system. I pointed out that the US and British inserted language in the UN resolution that allowed them to freeze the accounts of the nationalized oil company as well as the central bank of Libya. Well, before they have even won their coup, the CIA backed pro-west opposition has taken the time to announce that they have formed a new national oil company and central bank. Obviously they have allowed our neo-liberal economic hit-men to write-up the legal documentation for this action and I am sure it hands over control to multinationals outside Libya. This is why so many globalist apologists and neo-liberals have been running around the last week claiming that the real government in Libya is the Transitional National Council.
It has always been about gaining control of the central banking system in Libya. Oil is just a profitable side issue like every other state asset that is waiting in Libya to be privatized and sold off to multinational corporations like Bechtel, GE, and Goldman Sachs. Oil is important and it is certainly a target but it isn’t the driving force behind these global wars for profit. Banking is.
Once the Coalition Provisional Authority took over in Iraq, the second thing they did, after signing a law banning the Baathists and disbanding the military, was to sign over the state-owned central banking system to privately held banking interests, bringing Iraq online with the web of private central banks. That took place the very first day of the CPA’s control of Iraq.
If you control the issuance of money in a country and can turn huge profits while enslaving the population with the debt that it produces, then everything, everything including the oil and everything else, belongs to you.
That is why control of the central bank was far more important than the oil in Iraq or in Libya.
The UN security council resolution was passed on the 17th of March late in the day. I wrote about it the very same night. According to the statement released by the “new government” of Libya, they met and hashed out the details of their new oil company and central bank system on the 19th, not 48 hours after the UN resolution promised ONLY to provide an no-fly zone over Libya for “humanitarian purposes”.
More than anything else, this new disclosure from the “new government” of Libya proves that this was NEVER about protecting the civilians, it was ALWAYS about stealing from them control of their monetary system and the nationalized oil profits that provide them with health-care, education, and even cash put right into each and every Libyan bank account as their part of the profits derived from a natural resource that belongs to them.
Obama prevented no humanitarian catastrophe, he saved not one single life. What he has done is not in service to the people of Libya but rather those who he serves, the banking interests that put him in power in the first place. In Libya, Obama’s intervention was not designed to protect the people but to ensure that they too are enslaved just as we are enslaved. That is why a waitress at the hotel the press corp was staying at called Eman a traitor. They know what is at stake here just like most American liberals know. But to them it is more important to maintain the shared illusion in the face of a crumbling liberal ideology that is literally rotting from the inside.
What is happening in Libya will hurt the people of Libya, not help them. It will steal from them their health-care and their education. It will return them to a time before Gadhafi when they had an literacy rate of only 10% and sky-rocketing poverty. It will impose upon them the same crippling banking structure that the people of this country know altogether too well. There is no question anymore, there is no argument. The only question is how much damage will we allow our corrupt government to inflict on the rest of the world before we stand up and say enough. That is the only question that is left and the only question worth discussing.

“United Nations resolution 1483 transferred the authority to authorize expenditures from Iraq’s oil revenue from the United Nations to the Coalition Provisional Authority… The International Advisory and Monitoring Board consisted of senior financial experts from the United Nations, the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank...
… After the U.S. military came in and took over Iraq, the CPA quickly began issuing many binding orders privatizing Iraq’s economy and opening it up to foreign investment. This was welcomed by many multinational corporations who saw the war as an opportunity to make billions of dollars in profits.“ Wiki

… According to Bloomberg, the Transitional National Council has “designated the Central Bank of Benghazi as a monetary authority competent in monetary policies in Libya and the appointment of a governor to the Central Bank of Libya, with a temporary headquarters in Benghazi.” Apparently someone felt that it was very important to get pesky matters such as control of the banks and control of the money supply out of the way even before a new government is formed.” The Economic Collapse

“The Transitional National Council released a statement announcing thedecision made at a March 19 meeting to establish the “Libyan Oil Company as supervisory authority on oil production and policies in the country, based temporarily in Benghazi, and the appointment of an interim director general” of the company.
The Council also said it “designated the Central Bank of Benghazi as a monetary authority competent in monetary policies in Libya and the appointment of a governor to the Central Bank of Libya, with a temporary headquarters in Benghazi.”
The Security Council adopted a resolution on March 17 that froze the foreign assets of the Libyan National Oil Corp. and the Central Bank of Libya, both described in the text as “a potential source of funding” for Qaddafi’s regime.” Bloomberg

Are we as morally bankrupt as the phonies who run our country or not?
It’s just that simple.

It is amazing that these so called UN Humanitarian States have frozen and stolen Libyan national money……. when the UN knows that the money is also used for the welfare of so many Libyans…. so in fact the UN is trying to starve Libyans….. is that a humanitarian thing to do? NO. The UN and neo-vampires are stealing a nations assets. What amazes me even more is that other Muslim nations are just sitting by and allowing it.
It’s like the devil is standing up in full view and mocking all religions……
and all news about Gaddafi has been blocked? We don’t know what is really going on. Even al Jazeera has turned pro-western since the devil-faced Hilliary complained about them not posting the same dis-info as our regular puppet media. Guess everything can be bought off.
fuck you , al Jazeera.

as i see it, the israel plank will alienate most every jew in nyc (intentional?) and the wikileaks segment shows naiveté at best. also, there’s no mention of 9/11 as is par for the course for peace groups. i had a conversation with graeme macqueen over the weekend (at the buildingwhat? conference at the university of hartford, which went wellhttp://www.investigatebuilding7.org/). graeme said that in the anti-war groups to which he belongs, people see him as a kook for his 9/11 truth views and 9/11 truth activism. given that 9/11 was used as one of the alleged justifications for invading (and keeping us in) iraq, it’s so odd that the peace groups denigrate 9/11 truth, wouldn’t you say?
