THE IMMORALITY OF THE FREE WORLD
This morning I have read 3 articles which illustrate nicely the way that geopolitical war drums are beating.
HOW BRITAIN WANTS TO REBUILD THE WORLD by Tom McTague, staff writer at The Atlantic interviewing Liz Truss, UK Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs.
Will We Die for the New World Order? By Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.
Why the Warmongers Are Wrong About China. By Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.
I admit that I giggled throughout the first (Liz Truss has that effect on me) and went on to admire Lew Rockwell’s sharp analysis of the hypocrisy he is witnessing in the USA.
While making Coffee#2 I speculated that Liz Truss’ City of London appointed handler must have sent a minion serf over to her UK Foreign Office loaded with books, specially selected for the woman to read. She certainly seemed proud to claim that she (somehow) has time to absorb quite a number of these brain-training tomes.
As the kettle boiled I wondered if all politicians are burrowing through mountains of literature dumped on them and selected to keep their thinking on the “right” track…..
No wonder they don’t have time to properly peruse, consider and debate the convoluted and deceptive laws they keep passing!
We are led by our media to believe that we voted for these individuals to represent us in government. That is democracy in the “free world” apparently. However in reality, we have sent them into the grip of an invisible and unelected monster which will tell them what to think, say and do for the rest of their lives. If they show any sign of thinking outside of the prescribed narrative, another City of London minion serf is despatched with a trolley full of mind correction. If that fails they are either dropped by their political party or suicided.
As I ponderously dip my McVities Digestive biscuit into Coffee#2 I wonder if this happens to every politician worldwide. They would soon learn to keep their heads down and watch that their toes do not overstep the proverbial line, wouldn’t they?
I mean, who wants to be buried in homework and probably tested on it at some point?

When I was young my friends used to suggest that I became a politician. I used to laugh at the thought. “Give over!” I would complain, baffled that they had not registered my utter contempt for all forms of government.
It wasn’t as if I favoured any particular school of thought or any philosophy. I was a ‘bitsa’ kind of kid. I liked bits of this and bits of that but nothing had my full interest and support until, after many years of motherhood, education, hard work, activism, travel and endless conversations, I found myself teaching English to some Libyan students who were studying at a University in Madrid. It was 2006 - long before nasty NATO chose to destroy their country.
These Libyan young men were a revelation to me. They were remarkably polite, smart and brimming with enthusiasm and health. We would meet once or twice a week at their apartment for English conversation practice. They would provide traditional snacks and drinks. The conversation often revealed how homesick they were and I would feel like a substitute mother to them at times.
When I asked about their country they had nothing but love and pride to express. They were the most remarkable young people I had ever met. They never criticised their country and they described a political system which astounded me with its generosity and justice.
They recommended that I read Muammar Gadaffi's Green Book but I did not find a copy of it in English until I returned to the UK several years later. Of course, the NATO action in Libya encouraged me to read it, purely to understand what had triggered the horrors beginning in Benghazi.
In 2011 the BBC produced this extremely biased article which makes for shocking reading. It is typical of BBC brainwashing which continues to this day.
For a better understanding of the realities of Libyan life I recommend you to take the time to read this article:
“In 1951 Libya was the poorest country in Africa and one of the poorest in the world.
By 2011, after four decades under Gaddafi’s stewardship, it was the most successful nation in Africa and was acknowledged by the UN to have a higher rate of development than even countries like Russia, Brazil and India. Among many other academics who were willing to voice a more considered view of the North-African nation, a Professor Garikai Chengu, a scholar of Middle Eastern affairs at Harvard University, wrote; “In 1967, Colonel Gaddafi inherited one of the poorest nations in Africa; however, by the time he was assassinated, Gaddafi had turned Libya into Africa’s wealthiest nation. Libya had the highest GDP per capita and life expectancy on the African continent. Less people lived below the poverty line than in the Netherlands.” ~ extract from » THE LIFE & DEATH OF GADAFFI'S LIBYA
According to David Blundy and Andrew Lycett’s book titled, “Qaddafi and the Libyan Revolution”, published long before the 2011 crisis; “The young people are well dressed, well fed and well educated. Every Libyan gets free and often excellent education, medical and health services. New colleges and hospitals are impressive by any international standard.” They further state, “All Libyans have a house or a flat, a car, and most have televisions and other conveniences. Compared with most citizens of Third World countries, and with many (others), Libyans have it very good indeed.”
I can confirm this opinion. It matches precisely my experience of the Libyan young people I met in Madrid in 2006 who told me that -
There was no interest on loans. Banks in Libya were state-owned and loans given to all citizens were at zero-percent interest by law. Unlike every country in the West, Libya was built and maintained on interest-free money.
Libya had no external debt to any foreign nation, entity or institution, as it had done everything independently and on its own merit. Consequently, no Libyan had any personal debt either.
There was no electricity bill in Libya; electricity was free for all citizens.
Having a home was considered a basic human right in Libya. Everyone was housed.
All education and all medical treatments were free in Libya.
The welfare system – a novelty in itself in Africa and most of the Arab world – was incredibly generous. Libyan Unemployment benefit was equivalent to $750.
Libyans who could not find the education or the medical help they needed in Libya, were fully funded by the government to go abroad to seek what they needed, with everything – travel, accommodation, living allowances – paid for by the state. There were therefore many Libyans in foreign countries for their education or for medical help, all paid for.
If a young Libyan was unable to find employment after graduation, the state would pay them the average salary of the profession until they could acquire a paying job in that field. Speaking of education, a country that only had a 25% literacy rate before Gaddafi’s revolution had 25% of its citizens attaining a university degree by the time of the uprising.
Any mother who gave birth to a child received the equivalent of $5,000.
All newlyweds received 60,000 dinars (equivalent to $50,000) from the government to buy their first apartment and to help start a family.
Any Libyans who wanted to take up farming careers would receive farming land, a house, farming equipment, seeds and livestock to get started. All of it free.
Anyone looking to buy a car could ask the government to subsidize 50% of the cost.
The price of petrol in Libya was $0.14 per litre.
Due to one Gaddafi’s relatively late reforms, a portion of every Libyan oil sale was being credited directly to the bank accounts of all Libyan citizens; this was envisioned as a true ‘sharing of the wealth’ among the population.
Former US Congressman and civil rights activist Walter Fauntroy, who went into Libya on a peace mission during the 2011 crisis, reported that “Contrary to what is being reported in the press, from what I heard and observed, more than 90 percent of the Libyan people love Gaddafi.“
Which of course explains why 1.7 million people were said to have marched in Tripoli‘s Green Square on July 3rd 2011 in support of Gaddafi and in opposition to NATO. But they did march: 1.7 million of them came out, in spite of the NATO bombs from the air and the threats from terrorists on the ground, to declare their absolute support for Gaddafi and to demonstrate against the NATO bombings. This was *far* greater a protest in terms of numbers than anything the mythical ‘anti-Gaddafi protestors’ of the corporate media and Western governments could’ve conducted at any stage of the turmoil.

It is a tragedy that the only political system I have ever admired in this world was so viciously obliterated by forces representing “the free world”.
No…. it is far more than a tragedy.
It is indicative of the massive gulf between me and the likes of Liz Truss.
It is indicative of the glaring immorality of “the free world”.
It is indicative of the mountain of lies we have to burn out of our media.
AND
How much more work there is ahead of us if we want to achieve a real and lasting global peace. Ironically, it was Gaddafi who listed the magnitude of this work during his speech at the United Nations in 2009. The speech that presaged his assassination.
Khillary Clinton on Gaddafi: "We came, we saw, we KILLED, he died"
Mike Pompeo: 'We lied, we cheated, we stole, we Murdered'
Clinton admitted officially that Obama killed Gaddafi because he wanted to drop the USD for oil sales.
The same is true for Saddam Hussein who wanted to drop the USD for oil sales.
What the majority of the population doesn't know is the existence of the PetroDollar. After the Gold standard was discontinued by Nixon in 1971 ($ unpegged from gold), the US agreed with Saudi Arabia to always sell its oil in USD and convinced other oil producing countries to do the same. From there on, the US only had to print fiat money out of thin air to buy whatever it needed - including military adventures financing. By so doing, those who accept the $ accepts the US inflation exports and are giving physical goods and services in exchange for empty papers - the US national debt is now $30Trillion vs a GDP of $22Trillion. Does that mean bankruptcy? up to the reader to decide.
Anyway, the wars in Iraq, Libya and Ukraine are all related. The Globalistan mafia wants to destroy Russia because they are planning (with China) a new monetary system based of gold and commodities.
The funny thing is that the war in Ukraine has accelerated the process instead of delaying it.
By confiscating Russian assets in Europe and US, the Ruble is now pegged to gold and all energy sales to the EU are in Ruble. If you don't pay in Ruble, we cut the gas supplies.
If you check the Euro/RUB and USD/RUB exchange rates you'll be surprised....
The end of another empire is written on the wall.
My God. The profound crime committed against Libya by NATO and the west is so unthinkable that no one in the west ever internalizes it no matter how “fair” they think they are. I was aware of the achievements under Gadaffi but your direct experiences really are such a valuable addition to understanding what was and what was destroyed. HRC’s cackling laughter over it galvanized my opinion that pure evil had solidified over DC.
I think of the fate of native Americans in North America and that is unthinkable too, but it blips past the synapses of practically everyone. My conservative cohort never considers any of the above at all. BUT my liberal cohort is truly F’d in the head. They go full indignant over the fate of indigenous peoples and American slaves but not when it comes to the depredations of the present empire. They’re beyond redemption because “their people” were the headliners in the crimes of the 21st century. They vomit up the fiction of the R2P propaganda op regarding Libya and it doesn’t take long for them to condescend against crazies who won’t get the “vaxx” and it’s a short hop skip and a jump to promoting the Snow White innocence of a NATO/Ukraine (and not incidentally nazi) state and the full demonization and nothing short of a genocidal hatred of Russia Russia Russia. One would see the blood dripping from their fangs were it not for their covidian masks. In these self identified “good” people I visage the same entity that produced thousands of buffalo carcasses in the American plains it deemed necessary (and enjoyable apparently) to eradicate the indigenous peoples, self righteousness notwithstanding. Any attempt at nudging the dialogue that direction has given me a sense of what a nuclear detonation looks like up close!
That a centuries long ultimate plan for the Russian land mass is a seamless continuation of the above is unthinkable to me. But there it is. Somehow the unthinkable is only thinkable after the unthinkable has happened. And western modern left is no better than anybody who won’t speak out against it let alone support it.
Being aware of crimes of the past is of no value if it doesn’t make one aware of and denounce the crimes in progress. I’ve said this to several who I thought were reachable to no avail. Among family, friends, and acquaintances I have just a few I can discuss such things with. For that I am grateful.
Thank you for this remarkable article.
