AP Fact Check Destroys Obama's Libya Speech
FoxNation.com ^ | March 28 | Staff

Posted on 03/28/2011 6:52:29 PM PDT by JesseWatters

There may be less than meets the eye to President Barack Obama's statements Monday night that NATO is taking over from the U.S. in Libya and that U.S. action is limited to defending people under attack there by Moammar Gadhafi's forces. In transferring command and control to NATO, the U.S. is turning the reins over to an organization dominated by the U.S., both militarily and politically. In essence, the U.S. runs the show that is taking over running the show. And the rapid advance of rebels in recent days strongly suggests they are not merely benefiting from military aid in a defensive crouch, but rather using the multinational force in some fashion - coordinated or not - to advance an offensive. Here is a look at some of Obama's assertions in his address to the nation Monday, and how they compare with the facts:

>Gadaffi? There is more to the story. He doesnt fit into the CALIPHATE crew for some reason, maybe there is merit that he is a Jew?

IMO<

I think it is just easier to take his country from him, along with the weapons, oil fields etc and turn them over to al-qaeda who can then work with the Muslim Brotherhood.

The Muslim Brotherhood already took over Egypt.
They are in Tunisia
Turkey is in bad shape, Saudi Arabia as well.

The only really solid place now .. as strange as it sounds is Iraq. Radical Muslims are in place to take over every regime at almost the same time in history.

Obama is helping them. he said he would.

Doesn’t matter what BS he says, the MSM and libs will buy it hook, line and sinker, no matter what, and without question.

The speech was full of lies, beginning with the very first phrase:

My fellow Americans, . . .

Obama’s lies have come home to roost.

Yeah.

In my opinion, there are two factors going on here:1. Gadaffi [sp?] has become a threat to expose something on obama that he does not want exposed. What this is I don't know, but,as another Freeper pointed out to me, only recently obama was wanting to increase military aid to him, and Gadiffi [sp?]was referring to obama as, "My son".Now, Gadiffi [sp?] hasn't changed, he is the same that he has been for years.

2. Israel is really the receipant , the intended target, of the U.N. and obama's resolution. .

Munz?
You are bang on the money with all the pieces fitting real well.

The caliphate is done and with America behind it.

Israel is going to be challenged real soon.

And then America itself.

Caliphate is global.

The madhi is in OUR White House

All one has to do is look at what has happened since obamacare has been implemented.

If you remember what was reported on Atlas shrugged:

http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2010/06/-obama-tells-egyptian-foreign-minister-i-am-a-muslim-stealth-coup-on-the-white-house.html

Obama was reported to have said that he would show the world that he was a muslim by actions after he implemented the obamacare.

Since that time, almost every country that had a decent muslim population has been thrown in massive turmoil.
I know a lot of people believe that Bin Laden is dead. It is my belief that he is not.
A few days ago I ran across a piece of news that didn’t surprise me at all.

from the asia times
http://www.atimes.com/atimes/South_Asia/MC25Df01.html

“After a prolonged lull, the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has launched a series of covert operations in the rugged Hindu Kush mountains of Pakistan and Afghanistan following strong tip-offs that al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden has been criss-crossing the area in the past few weeks for high-profile meetings in militant redoubts. “

checkout the full report there.

I think that Bin laden is quite alive and well. I also think that he is meeting with his people, the Muslim Brotherhood and other radicals. They are uniting under the muslim flag and taking every nation under control that has been destabilized. (all but Iraq)

Once they have the military- the populations, oil and the arms across the middle east, Europe will fall fast. Then comes us and Israel at the same time.

Obama is helping them every step of the way. Either intentionally or unwittingly just being the lap dog for the UN and the Arabs. I don;t think that he is that stupid though.

From link

--the Indonesian translation of Barak Obama's book changes the title from The Audacity of Hope: Thoughts on Reclaiming The American Dream, which has a perfectly straightforward translation,
to Assault Hope: From Jakarta to the White House. American Expat says this has connotations, for Indonesians, of jihad.

A few of us realize that and can actually articulate why.
But in the end it doesn’t matter. We are too few, then the rest who really care are spread out on the ideas that bother them that Obama is doing. We are not focused enough to do much to stop it.

If we were, perhaps we could get the Media to push it out there and get more interested. Then we might make a difference with what is happening.

I don’t know. Sometimes my head swims when I think about it.

Pal? I dunno as well, but have a huge belief that we are on side. I have been pumping your assessment (as per 61) today and you NEVER know who else is reading it. If the right eyes fall on it, the message can travel a huge distance in minutes. By the same accord, it can fail. It can alert others which is okay.

I think your assessment is brief, concise and accurate.

I think the message needs to get out there.

The sad thing is that there have to be people out there who know this and are in the position to get the word out there.
Where are they is the question??

“I think it is just easier to take his country from him, along with the weapons, oil fields etc and turn them over to al-qaeda who can then work with the Muslim Brotherhood.”

Bingo. If you look at Gaddaffi’s history, he’s made many overtures to other Arab countries about merging with Libya, but they have always rebuffed him. The reason is that, every time, Gaddaffi planned for himself to be the leader of the new state. He is an egomaniac, and the Arabs would only tolerate that if he was strong enough to crush his opposition and lead them to victory. Gaddaffi is not that guy, so he’s got to go.
