Libya: The ruins of a nation

«Libya, before the western aggression, was an amazing and very, very beautiful country»

«a true paradise where people were enjoying their freedom and their lives in a fantastic way.»

«For those who got killed, we can’t do now anything anymore, but the ones who are still alive need help»

«and I feel so sorry for them because they seem to be forgotten more and more… media do not care about the despair of the Libyan people and they are suffering so very much… »

*********************Libya,the ruins of a Nation*********************

Some are now saying that around 12.000 US soldiers are kept on stand by, stationed around Libya, others even report that a part of those troops were already deployed inside the country, into a Libyan base, that is now run by French and US forces, somewhere on the southern Libyan desert.
Main Stream Media did stop reporting about Libya, right after Gaddafi’s murder, they seemed to have agreed on an almost total blackout of Libyan events, in spite of local eyewitnesses constantly reporting daily fierce fights on the ground, as well as spotting NATO aircrafts continuing to patrol Libyan airspace and continuing to bomb some specific Libyan cities.
More and more voices are now starting to question themselves with an inconvenient question: all that western countries care about is the OIL FLOW?

Well, apparently yes, apparently Libyan oil is thicker than Libyan blood…
Everyday now more consistently, Libyan sources keep saying that the situation on the ground is deteriorating by the hour and further and further away from control . The resistance against NTC keeps gaining strength and chairman Mustafa Jalil, without any capability to reverse the course of things, keeps walking on cracking ice, in a country where people fear for their lives and the lives of their children, where the law of the jungle substituted justice and where criminal armed militias run around free, pillaging, killing, raping and terrorising. These armed militias are the main source of apprehension for Libyans and obviously all this was quite predictable (Gaddafi himself was mentioning it in several of his last speeches) and even Robert Gates (then US Defence Secretary), when he was asked about a pos Gaddafi Libya, had replied with his famous statement ‘don’t get involved’ in a very clear mention to the dangerously chaotic and too hard to handle nation, that Libya would become. The sad conclusion we need to draw here is that western think tanks have known all along what the tragic situation the pos Gaddafi era would be for Libyans and in fact never had any intention of protecting Libyan lives. It is very clear that imperialistic western nations, as long as Libyan oil continues to flow to their ports, intend to keep their eyes deliberately wide shut, regarding the desperation of the entire Libyan population. They pretend that chaos in Libya, which they entirely have created, does not concern them (unless their control over Libyan oil industry becomes threatened). According to Western statistics, Libya’s oil output is now almost on the same level as Libya had produced before (1.5 million barrels per day) and nations like France, Britain, Germany, Netherlands, etc. are thus pretending that all is well in Libya, because Libyan oil, which is ‘sweet and light’ (fit as fuel for aircraft) is all that matters.
Libya is subjected to a de facto new kind of colonialism and western occupation is a reality, with NATO forces indirectly deployed on the ground, all Libyan oil wells and ports of export under the control of foreign forces and all those who dare to fight against the occupation, being persecuted , imprisoned and killed.
