US military considers ramping up Libya presence
CNN ^ | 10 July 2017 | Barbara Starr

A new diplomatic and military policy for Libya that could significantly expand US involvement in the country could be finalized by the Trump administration in the next few weeks, according to two US officials.

The policy, if approved, would aim to further the existing US goal of supporting reconciliation between rival factions in eastern and western areas of Libya. The policy could also lead to the eventual re-opening of the US embassy and the establishing of a new intelligence sharing effort led by US special forces, according to the officials.

Not this shite again!

Obama,Clinton and McCain OWN Libya.

What they did was illegal on so many levels.

Benghazi alone should have gotten Obama impeached and the Queen Beotch and imbecile Rice thrown in prison.

Quadaffi had billions in gold and was preparing to back his currency, the dinar, with gold to replace the dollar and euro as the currency of Africa. (Most currencies there are currently based on the dollar or euro).

Yes, I've heard that. If true, then it leads immediately to the conclusion that the core of US Foreign Policy then is simply about supporting the primacy of the US Dollar. If that's the case then, who is really running our country?

The same people that brought us the federal reserve, ww1 and ww2. The City of London (not part of Britain).

Here’s a good interview with Dr Guido Preparata on his book, “Conjuring Hitler”:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TFqCiJOpWhk&t=3881s

Here is the comments about the book from the back cover:

In the first 50 years of the 20th century witness Britains determination to annihilate the threat of German hegemony on the continental landmass. The British Empire feared that a possible merger of the German Reich with the Russian Czarist Empire might have given birth to a much greater Eurasian alliance. A fastness in the heart of Eurasia would of attracted in its orbit men, resources and geographical advantages in such numbers that it would have threatened and eventually foiled British imperial domination across the world. To prevent such an alliance Britain embarked upon an extroadinary feat of aggression which began with the great war 1914-1918, this act followed up by the 15 year long incubation of Hitlerism which Britain would eventually need to set up Germany and the 2 front world conflict that would have sanctioned the erasure of the German rivalry once and for all.

Here is a very good interview with Norman Dodd (lead investigator) of the Reece commission in 1953 on Large Tax Exempt Foundations, Rockefeller, Ford, Cargegie, etc and their influence on society. These two interviews will answer alot of questions.

This is the fundamental question.
We still are better off with Trump given the alternative, but we must consider the possibility that he cannot “drain the swamp” as he calls it ... the swamp is too big.

Perhaps the only thing that can drain the swamp is financial/social collapse. It is a distinct possibility.

"Yeah, right. More unsourced and unverified fake news."

Then, our pearl clutchers, who suffer from severe Stockholm Syndrome, whenever any fake news appears, scream, twirl and pass out while repeating Oh No!
