Renegade Inc. – Looting Libya

Summary:
Renegade Inc. say they were there on the ground during the Libyan revolution and the people there generally believed the Western lies that they wanted to liberate them when really what they were after were their resources. Now Libya is a failed state overrun with jihadists fighting for control of Libya's resources. Many thousands have died and millions more driven into poverty, while the West takes no interest and neither does the media.One bit of good news, and I hope he's right, is that Dr Matthew Alford says we have never been anywhere near nuclear war because the West is so powerful: the West just likes to create enemies to keep military spending up. Well, Paul Craig Roberts had me hiding under the bed last year.  If you have time the embedded video is excellent, where in the second

If you have time the embedded video is excellent, where in the second half they talk about how the CIA and the FBI have altered thousands of scripts for films and shows to portray US interventionism in other counties as a good thing. Kevin KV

One of the biggest Western foreign policy adventures in recent years is something that is underreported in the media. So-called ‘intervention’ in Libya has created a failed state that is riven with extremists all vying for power. So we ask: was this really an epic foreign policy mistake? Or was destroying Libya just another day at the office for politicians, shortsighted bureaucrats, and vulture corporates who continually try to enforce global economic supremacy.


Libya was apparently former President Barack Obama’s biggest regret. This is what his then Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton said about the then Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi:

“We came, we saw, he died”.
