I thought they were to be invited to stay by the new government, but the TNC seem to be unable to install themselves so NATO have just invited themselves to stay anyway. It would be interesting to see how many NATO troops are operating in Libya at the moment.

NATO says that with the Gaddafi regime ousted, it is close to success in Libya. Nevertheless, the alliance promised to remain in the region in order to secure its UN mandate.

While NATO and its supporters envisage an endgame in Libya, they would do well to revisit some of the excerpts from the Libyan Tribal Council manifesto which was issued barely one month ago, on 26 July 2011.
Speaking for Libya’s 2000 tribes, the Council issued a Proclamation signed by scores of tribal leaders from eastern Libya.
“By this letter to the extraordinary African Summit, convening in Addis Ababa, the notables of the Eastern tribes of the Great Jamahiriya confirm their complete rejection of what is called the Transitional Council in Benghazi which hasn’t been nominated nor elected by Tribal representatives but rather imposed by NATO.”

Africa is facing a criminal imperialist invasion of Libya, led by the foremost neo colonialist in Africa, the United States, and organized under the US Africa Command (Africom) and a 28 European nation military alliance, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO). This invasion is a desperate attempt to slow down the inevitable and rapidly approaching collapse of the American economy with its increasingly frequent economic crisis, recessions, and uncontrollable debt of $14.3 trillion dollars; which they can never pay.

For the third day in a row, NATO aircraft are conducting massive missile and bomb strikes on the city of Sirte, home town of Muammar Gaddafi, not allowing anyone to escape. The city perimeter is surrounded by rebel check points, behind which there are special forces units from Britain, France, Qatar and United Arab Emirates.

I was thinking how Israel might feel about NATO rebels in Tripoli being led by CIA/Al Qaeda elements. For all the talk of wars for Israel we seem to be seeing wars where Israel’s interests are being disregarded, if this response by Debka is anything to go by. This may be a crucial element in understanding what looks like a new phase of imperial war.

Caramba !
C’était donc ça le projet ? Éliminer le clan Kadhafi pour piller tout l’or noir de ce pays riche ? Alors qu’on nous apprend que quelques membres de sa famille, son épouse, sa fille Aïcha, ses fils Hannibal et Mohamed ainsi que leurs familles respectives sont en Algérie selon les autorités, on se demande bien pourquoi les renégats de Benghazi exigent leur extradition. Que reproche-t-on à sa femme ? A sa fille ? Les filles de Saddam Hussein sont exilées en Jordanie, non ?

Still no pictures from “free Tripoli” with TNC leaders received by euphoric crowds. NATO continues to bomb Sirte. Fighting continues in or around Tripoli. No mention of the rest of the country also allegedly controlled by the TNC despite until recently clearly having been controlled by the government forces and no evidence or of “rebel ” takeover being given.

Images don’t lie, except NATO’s fake ones produced in Doha, Qatar and perhaps elsewhere on Hollywood sound stages.
