Libye – Les dernières nouvelles du front (31-10-2011)
31st October, 2011
L’heure n’est pas à la joie côté CNT. On y regrette la mise à mort de Mouammar Kadhafi et il sera demandé à ses militaires de rallier une armée nationale en gestation. Une cellule de crise s’est réunie ce dimanche à Benghazi, pour faire le bilan de la guerre. S’adressant à ses amis félons, Mustafa Abdel Jalil a menacé de se retirer si le chaos s’installait définitivement.

La resistencia Libia abre un frente en Benghazi
27th October, 2011
Según el portal Algeria ISP, un grupo de patriotas de la resistencia libia se introdujo en el Banco Central de Libia. Cerraron el banco a la fuerza para impedir la lapidación de dinero por el CNT. Agentes de la CNT tendrían temor por sus vidas. Los patriotas de la resistencia libia atacaron el Tribunal de Justicia de la CNT, lo que dio lugar a un pánico total entre las ratas. También hubo manifestaciones en contra del Consejo de la vergüenza CNT. Los manifestantes fueron dispersados por las ratas. Esta es una evidencia mas de que la OTAN y sus matones a sueldo, a pesar del genocidio perpetrado, no pueden controlar al heroico pueblo Libio, ni siquiera en Bengazhi.

This is very interesting: the TNC’s request for a continuation of the NATO operation has been declined. They didn’t make it for nothing. They know how vulnerable they are without NATO air and ground support. The ground support will continue courtesy of Qatar and Blackwater but without air strikes the advantage swings to the green resistance. NATO have extricated themselves from a disastrous campaign and left the TNC twisting in the wind. This is the “victory”.

The United Nations Security Council voted unanimously on Thursday for an Oct. 31 end to its authorization of foreign military intervention in Libya, the legal basis for NATO attacks on Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi’s forces during the 8-month civil war that toppled him from power.

The CNT is nothing without NATO. NATO and CNT ground forces cannot operate other than under the cover of NATO bombing. NATO bomb or they are defeated.

This summer, a senior Saudi official told John Hannah [1], former United States vice president Dick Cheney’s former chief-of-staff, that from the outset of the Syrian upheaval in March, the king has believed that regime change in Syria would be highly beneficial to Saudi interests: “The king knows that other than the collapse of the Islamic Republic itself, nothing would weaken Iran more than losing Syria,” said the official.

A good and timely article by Pilger. However, the left always and everywhere have to watched with a critical eye. He refers to China as an “imperial rival” hinting at Lenin’s inter-imperialist rivalry thesis. But it is necessary to distinguish between the empire, operating out of Washington and London and currently embarked on a programme of world domination,and those who defend themselves against it. Pilger gives us a hint of a treacherous line from the left: that we remain neutral in the wars being provoked by the empire- a plague on all their houses.

On 14 October, President Barack Obama announced he was sending United States special forces troops to Uganda to join the civil war there. In the next few months, US combat troops will be sent to South Sudan, Congo and Central African Republic. They will only “engage” for “self-defence”, says Obama, satirically. With Libya secured, an American invasion of the African continent is under way.

The war against Libya is built on fraud. The United Nations Security Council passed two resolutions against Libya on the basis of unproven claims, specifically that Colonel Muammar Qaddafi was killing his own people in Benghazi and Libya. The claim in its exact form was that Qaddafi had ordered Libyan forces to kill 6,000 people in Benghazi as well as in other parts of the country. These claims were widely disseminated, but always vaguely explained. It was on the basis of this claim that Libya was referred to the U.N. Security Council at U.N. Headquarters in New York City and kicked out of the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva.

Beware of strangers bearing gifts. Post-modern Amazon and United States Secretary of State Hillary Clinton finally landed in Tripoli – on a military jet – to lavish praise on the dodgy Transitional National Council (TNC), those pportunists/defectors/Islamists formerly known as “North Atlantic Treaty Organization rebels”.

I can’t find much on Libya in the mainstream media today. They seem to have gone quiet of late after trumpeting the great NATO “victory” in Sirte last week. Perhaps they’re resting on their laurels this week after the destruction of that city of about 100,000 people. The media seem to enjoy boasting about this. They also keep telling us that the civilians have all gone, a strange boast that is also completely false but which enables them to triumphantly show the TNC bombardment of the town from distance as not a war crime since, they give us to understand, only “Gaddafi’s diehard supporters” are there. But it is true that there is nothing left of Sirte except an indomitable spirit of resistance that NATO is completely unable to overcome. So much so that the NATO forces seem to have given up there for the meantime except for the daily routine of random bombing and have moved onto another “last holdout” of the Jamahiriya, Beni Walid. How many last holdouts are there and can NATO take any of them?
