On the one hand Italy’s government takes a firm stand against islam in Italy, yet they cower before Ghaddafi and pay “reparations” to Lybia. Dopes.

Much of the ‘stand’ on islam in italy has been local politics iirc, also the EU and US are essentially buying off libya in return for a number of concessions of value. Buying off implies a monetary price.
The energy sluts preferred the associated cash spread on the oil. If it wasn’t for the oil, they could have said, you got over that in infrastructure for your camels, keep your immigrants and the importation of the muslim ignorance would be over.
The oil connection probably farther enhanced by Ghadaffis crew making its way into the government.
IMO
“Italy would like to see Libya crack down further on illegal migrants turning up on Italian shores”
I wonder how big a part of the move this was?
