We don't know who those 'rebels' are. They could be terrorists & would be very happy to use them against our troops.
Obama has secretly let Egypt & the U.S. to train them & arm them. He fancies himself to be a great Commander In Chief & is playing war...something he also has no clue about!!
Enlighten me, genius.
With everyone making tons of money off of rising oil, I don’t see any great hurry for this thing to end. And if that stuff about Kadafi and Paladin Group is correct. Kadafi has some very deep deep contacts all over. Maybe when oil hits 150 a barrel. Maybe.
I have a feeling we are going to hear “shots heard around the world”.
I believe it is true. Skorzeny established Nasser's internal security (Muhabarat) witht the help of former Gestapo guys and Nasser was the guy who introduced Daffy into high politics. No doubt Daffy is well connected and on first name basis with many movers and shakers, owing to approx. $1000B of Libyan sovereign wealth.
Enlighten you?
Are you incapable of doing your own research?
I will give you 2 hints. North did not give the Iranians weapons nor did we send forces to train them.
I am well aware of that and did not say that he did. Good grief.
ok
then what was your point in bringing Oliver North up in this thread?
I brought up the Contras. If you don’t get the point...mebbe you need the history lesson?
So we used sopme of the money from selling weapons to Iran to help the Contras , anti Sandinista and anti communist rebels.
I am still not sure how this relates to the topic in this thread which is that we said we’d adhere to the UN resolution and the UN resolution does not include putting US forces on the ground in libya
Did 0dumbo say over and over he would not send ground troops?
Howevr, for the sake of your whine. Because some other admin operated in a manner you didn’t like you are using that to excuse 0dumbo?
OR are you whining that we shouldn’t hold 0dumbo to his own words because 40 years ago some one did something else?
I’m saying that I don’t know what your problem is.
Clearly you have a problem since you are the one who brought in something that happened 40 years ago and tried to use it somehow to link to what is going on today.
Why did you post about Iran/contra and Oliver North in this thread on Libya and 0dumbo’s lies about what we will not do?
US and Egyptian special forces
SAME HAPPENED TO MILOSEVIC! HIS SPEECH WAS ALSO MISTRANSLATED!
Why one should read this speech
by Jared Israel
It is impossible for a society to engage in genocide unless the population is won to hate the target group. This has to be done in a systematic way. That is, political leaders must support hate in deeds but also in words.
We are told that this happened in Serbia. We are told that Slobodan Milosevic and other Serbian leaders indoctrinated the Serbian people to hate non-Serbs, especially ethnic Albanians in Kosovo province. We are told that Milosevic launched this racist campaign in a speech at Kosovo Field in 1989.
This charge made against Milosevic, that he preaches racial or ethnic hate, is significant because it supports the charge made against the Serbian people, that they were won to hatred and therefore practice genocide. Because many Americans and West Europeansbelieve these charges they are disposed to believe there must be some truth to the avalanche of pro-war propaganda demonizing the Serbs.
So. It is important to know exactly what Milosevic said in his speech at Kosovo Field. Yet nowhere do any of those who attack Milosevic’s speech quote his words. Why not?
Greg Elich, a researcher, unearthed a U.S. government transcript of the Kosovo Field speech. Please read it and ask: is it a hateful diatribe, reminiscent of Hitler? Or is it something quite different, something really quite different indeed?
Jared Israel, April 1999
Speech by Slobodan Milosevic, delivered to an estimated million people at the central celebration marking the 600th anniversary of the Battle of Kosovo, held at Gazimestan, in Kosovo, on 28 June 1989.
