Gaddafi Calls On War With Italy
RIA Novosti ^ | April 30, 2011

Posted on 04/30/2011 6:15:24 PM PDT by Strategy

Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi on Saturday called on war with Italy, citing Italy's 'colonization' attempts.

In a speech delivered at the Libyan state TV, Gaddafi said that he could not prevent war with Italy since Libyans wanted it.

"We are already in a war with Italy since Italians kill our children in 2011 as they did in 1911, that is why I cannot forbid Libyans to defend their lives and carry the military actions on the enemy's territory," Gaddafi said.

Libya delenda est!

You are being played.

This whole business is about George Soros wanting to control that $5T in wealth which Libya represents.

Basically, Soros and Obunga are trying to perpetrate a bank robbery in broad daylight and using American military assets to do it.

I bet if he put Russian Troops there Obama would back down so fast it would be funny.

Not if the last bit of advice he receives comes from Wesley ...

No doubt.

As soon as Daffy lands a good punch the Europeans will sue for peace...and agree to completely rebuild Libya.

And, Daffy has the means to land that punch.

Libya was a former Italian colony; perhaps most Libyans would unite against Italy in a common front.

Ergo, Gaddaffi strikes at Italy; Italy strikes back; and Gaddaffi becomes leader of all Libyans against Italy.

Italy, France, etc. are involved because they get a significant percentage of their best oil from Libya. We think gas prices are high here, they are at least double over there. Also 2/3 to 3/4 of the oil comes from the east which could start exporting again if Kadaffi would settle down. I think the son that was killed is Saif-al-Arab, who was a playboy type, and reported by the Iranians to have defected in Feb. 2011. Paranoid question—did Q trick NATO into killing off his “ungrateful” useless son??? It would be a useful pity ploy in some circles.

Now that a major Imam in Russia has proposed/demanded? putting the crescent on the Russian flag, Putin may have to rethink his opinions/strategies.

‘Libya is where Carthage was.’

Technically, TUNESIA is where Carthage was.

I have a trip to Italy for June 22 - July 7.

Just yesterday, I was telling an usher at my church that “I hope Khaddafi doesn’t do something crazy in Italy; it would ruin our trip” — and voilá! — I read this headline this morning!!

Weird!
