Even more that that. Libya was a huge threat to the cabal,creating a currency backed by gold,which threatened what China was about to do. creating desalt plants all over the country, making gardens out of much of North Africa, health insurance, livable wages, affordable housing, you name it Qdaffi was all over it.

He was a shining example of how a one time terror type could become a good guy. Something the cabal would do anything to prevent since its anti-chaos in the region.the cabal needs constant chaos everywhere to make governing more palatable for them.

There is a global swamp. And it’s getting art-of-the-dealt with. The swamp fights back and what we now see is the beginning of the storm.

Recent swamp elements under attack: Saudi Arabia [successful?]
Current swamp elements under attack: East Asia or US
Future swamp elements under attack: EU
Current swamp counter actions: Paradise papers, perhaps church shootings as distractions

Keywords: Uranium One, Saudi Arabia (esp. Waleed Bin-Talal: largest Citibank shareholder -> pre-chose Obama cabinet, HUMA: Harvard Uni Muslim Assoc.?), DNC (also Donna Brazile), Clinton Foundation, child trafficking.

Don’t ask for a basic gestalt or rundown. Perhaps lurk one thread or read through the previous one (many summaries thrown around) before you ask questions, you’ll get familiar with it soon. Yes, there’s much speculation, disinfo, lulz as usual. Help us sorting out the good stuff. This could get you started:

I came across this article in Investors Business Daily from 2012:

Barack Obama—The Radical Mansourian Candidate :

The Obama Record: A 1979 column confirms our 2008 editorial positing that the 44th president might owe his meteoric rise to an education funded by Israeli-hating adviser to a Saudi billionaire. On Sept. 9, 2008, we published an editorial as part of our attempt to properly vet the then junior senator from Illinois, Barack Obama, whose past was somewhat foggy. We pointed out the connection between one Dr. Khalid Abdullah Tariq al-Mansour, born Donald Warden, an Israeli-hating Islamist supporter and top adviser to radical Saudi Prince Al-Waleed bin Talal, and a college student .

That college student, a young Obama, found al-Mansour's favor and would one day be president as Israel was abandoned by America and the Middle East burst into flames amid a sea of presidential apologies, including one for our freedom of speech. ...

These revelations by Timmerman were dismissed as the ramblings of an old man with fading faculties and memories. Now more dots have been unearthed and connected by blogger Frank Miele at Daily InterLake.com. He cites a November 1979 column by TV commentator and respected Chicago Tribune columnist Vernon Jarrett with the title "Will Arabs Back Ties To Blacks With Cash?"

If that name sounds familiar, the late Vernon Jarrett was the father-in-law of one Valerie Jarrett, who would go on to become what Miele calls "the consigliere of the Obama White House." Mr. Jarrett was a colleague and one of the best friends of Frank Marshall Davis, the former Chicago journalist and lifelong communist who moved to Hawaii in the late 1940s and years later befriended Stanley and Madelyn Dunham and their daughter Stanley Ann, mother of Barack Obama.

Davis is known to have taken an active role in the rearing of young Obama from the age of 10 until he turned 18 and left Hawaii for his first year at Occidental College in Los Angeles in 1979. That was the same year al-Mansour was seeking Arab financial support for students such as Obama.

Vernon Jarrett's column details how al-Mansour told him about a proposal he made to OPEC Secretary-General Rene Ortiz regarding a program to spend "$20 million per year for 10 years to aid 10,000 minority students each year, including blacks, Arabs, Hispanics, Asians and native Americans."

These minority students would then migrate through the political system promoting Palestinian and radical Islamist causes. Al-Mansour told Jarrett that the program had been endorsed by Ortiz and other OPEC administrators.

So, it appears that, for decades, the Saudis had been creating real-life "Manchurian Candidates" in the US, and with one, Obama, they hit the jackpot.

Timmerman revealed the below interview of Percy Sutton, the then dean of NYC black politicians, in a first hand account. It defies sanity and/or honesty to claim Sutton was "rambling," of "fading faculties" or "fading memory." (This was posted on FR countless times during the 2008 election but never reached enough Americans.)

Any suggestions for following threads? Since everyone just has a number it is not intuitive to me anyway, which posts are answers to other questions and who/which post they are replying to. Without figuring that out its just a bunch of statements that are quite hard to follow (and with large doses of “larp” and bad language makes it even harder to follow. I just skip over any with crude lanquage- most posts that have anything worthwhile aren’t filled with bad words or hateful lanquage). Maybe there’s a hint you can give on how to follow threads better, or a way to actually change a setting to line things up in threads. I’ve googled it and couldn’t find anything. I’m limiting my time on free republic and other sites these days so cant just spend hours reading. I think they do have some good stuff & true inside info, though mixed in with the daydreaming and wishful thinking and crazy talk.

To me it looks clear that bin Salman has done this in conjunction with Trump’s knowledge, as Kushner went there a few days before. This is basically helping drain our swamp by getting rid of corruption in SA. And very likely forestalling a planned coup against the king and bin Salman.

...The question is: Are the Salafists being arrested?

Looks that way. The Wahabi and the Sauds have been at loggerheads over power in the kingdom for a long time. Maybe the Sauds have decided if they want islam to survive, they need to modernise. It's a question of what is the most powerful, allah or income.

I'm betting on the money. The Wahabi doctrine is unproductive, it's detrimental to the future of Saudi Arabia.

“...The latter remark hints that Mohammed Bin Salman won’t allow the Kingdom’s traditional Wahhabi socio-cultural “regulations” to be enforced there, which goes along with his other headline-grabbing statement during the event when he said that Saudi Arabia will “return…to moderate Islam” and “swiftly deal a blow to extremist ideologies”. Quite clearly, as analyzed in the author’s earlier piece this month about Saudi Arabia’s shifting grand strategy, a “deep state” conflict is indeed being fought in the country between its monarchic and clerical factions, with the former poised to carry out a “soft coup” against the latter as it seeks to “modernize” the country. This will surely result in some behind-the-scenes tumult in the coming future, if not overt destabilization, but the point of the present article isn’t to dwell too much on that tangent...”

Trump Tells Saudi King That He Supports Modernization Drive

excerpt:

“The king and crown prince’s recent public statements regarding the need to build a moderate, peaceful and tolerant region are essential to ensuring a hopeful future for the Saudi people, to curtailing terrorist funding, and to defeating radical ideology — once and for all — so the world can be safe from its evil,” the White House said in the statement.

The White House statement made no mention of the scores of arrests, including that of Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, a billionaire investor who has held stakes in an array of Western companies, including the News Corporation, Citigroup and Twitter. Prince Mohammed, who has already sidelined rivals to the throne, is viewed as the mastermind behind the crackdown.

Prince Alwaleed sparred with Mr. Trump on Twitter during the presidential election, referring to him as a “disgrace not only to the GOP but to all America.” Mr. Trump fired back, also on Twitter, that he was a “dopey prince” trying to “control our U.S. politicians with daddy’s money.”
