Among the links of Libyan rebels to Washington DC

In mid-May 2011, just six weeks after the beginning of the NATO bombing of Libya, leaders of the anti-Gaddafi rebel movement went to Washington, D.C. for “talks.” And the big oil companies were present when they spoke at the U.S.-Libya Business Council.

More NATO bombing will only harden resolve of Libya to resist

As the bishop of Tripoli, Giovanni Innocenzo Martinelli has quietly counseled the Libyan capital’s small Roman Catholic community.

Lockerbie Libyan Oil Money and Goldman Sachs

Most of us probably remember, vaguely, that Libya’s role in the Lockerbie bombing is an established fact. If so, we’re off base.

Why is Libyan suppression different than Saudi or African oppression?

Shades of hypocrisy! Why is Libyan suppression different than Saudi oppression, or oppression in other African nations? For decades the U.S. has looked upon the suffering of millions of Africans with indifference but now they are trying to convince us that it is a “moral imperative” that we intervene in the civil war in Libya.
