Hillary Emails Reveal NATO Killed Gaddafi to Stop Libyan Creation of Gold-Backed Currency

This is old news for readers of this blog, but it's a good summary of the Gaddaffi murder for the sleepy-eyed.  Foreign policy of "king dollar" is everything, and top US officials know once the dollar loses its global reserve currency status, it's lights out for American hegemony.

NATO Begins Encirclement of Russia

Hussein didn't have weapons of mass destruction, and Assad wasn't on the brink of killing his own people with chemical weapons.

Russia's Putin is not the aggressor either.  NATO agreed a long time ago they could not encircle Russia.  It's exactly what the US and NATO have done.

Hillary emails confirm US and NATO destroyed Libya over gold-backed currency

In the "I told you so" category, Gaddafi did perish as he tried to start a gold-backed African-centric currency.  This was the true "Arab spring."

Though the French-proposed U.N. Security Council Resolution 1973 claimed the no-fly zone implemented over Libya was to protect civilians, an April 2011 email sent to Hillary with the subject line “France’s client and Qaddafi’s gold” tells of less noble ambitions.

The email identifies French President Nicholas Sarkozy as leading the attack on Libya with five specific purposes in mind: to obtain Libyan oil, ensure French influence in the region, increase Sarkozy’s reputation domestically, assert French military power, and to prevent Gaddafi’s influence in what is considered “Francophone Africa.”

Most astounding is the lengthy section delineating the huge threat that Gaddafi’s gold and silver reserves, estimated at “143 tons of gold, and a similar amount in silver,” posed to the French franc (CFA) circulating as a prime African currency. In place of the noble sounding “Responsibility to Protect” (R2P) doctrine fed to the public, there is this “confidential” explanation of what was really driving the war [emphasis mine]: 

This gold was accumulated prior to the current rebellion and was intended to be used to establish a pan-African currency based on the Libyan golden Dinar. This plan was designed to provide the Francophone African Countries with an alternative to the French franc (CFA).

(Source Comment: According to knowledgeable individuals this quantity of gold and silver is valued at more than $7 billion. French intelligence officers discovered this plan shortly after the current rebellion began, and this was one of the factors that influenced President Nicolas Sarkozy’s decision to commit France to the attack on Libya.)

Paul Craig Roberts – As Greece Pivots, Putin Unleashing Ultimate Move To Crush The EU And NATO

Roberts doesn't go further, but if the scenario he paints becomes true (he's been prescient up until now), then USDollar hegemony is toast, which would roil global capital markets.  Everybody suffers short-term, but the global debt overhang would be repudiated.  A necessary reset will have winners and losers.  May the most competitive nations win.

NATO Runs Short of Munitions in Libya

This is what happens when bankrupt countries mount a war.  But hey, we need the oil.

NATO is running short of precision bombs and other munitions in its Libyan operation against the forces of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, The Washington Post reported April 15.

Citing unnamed senior NATO and U.S. officials, the newspaper said the shortage highlights the limitations of Britain, France and other European countries in sustaining even a relatively small military action.

The shortage of European munitions, along with the limited number of aircraft available, has raised doubts among some officials about whether the United States can continue to avoid returning to the air campaign, the report said.
