The Truth About Gaddafi by KWD99(m): 10:09am On Sep 08, 2015 |
You are free to judge Gaddafi and condemn
him as much as you like, but first, allow us to
give you facts on what Gaddafi did/intended
to do in Africa.
1. Africa spends billions every year paying
Europe for using satellite communication
systems, in entertainment, security, business
or just communications. Gaddafi wanted to
get rid of that by paying and setting up
satellite system for entire Africa for free,
saving Africa billions annually going to
europe.
2. Africa is divided into over 55 countries,
with different currencies. This makes it hard
for trade between African countries. If I
wanna buy Cocoa from Ivory coast, I'll have
to change my money into US dollars (giving
US 5-10% of my money), they I will probably
have to turn the dollars into euro, losing
another 5-10% of my capital to europe, then
change my euro into ivorian franc, again
losing another 5-10% of my money to the
french treasury. If I started with about South
African rand of 1000, by the time I am
purchasing cocoa in I vory coast, my money
will be worth only rands 650 to 700, the other
rand 300 will be in the hands of US and
Europe. Gaddafi wanted to get rid of this and
replace it with DINAR (An African currency)
for doing business in Africa without changing
the value…almost like bitcoin that can't be
manipulated easily.
3. Gaddafi's government made sure all Libyan
investment like oiLibya were all within Africa.
4. Gaddafi Nationalized oil in Libya, mean, the
government had control over the resources,
sold it and used the money to provide
services to the country. With nationalized
resources, Libyans didn't have to pay taxes,
received free health care, free education from
birth to PHD or as far as you wish, free
housing for the poor and subsidies on things
like food etc. The only people who worked in
Libya were Chines, Tchadians, sudanese, and
other African Immigrants.
5. Libya was one of the free countries in the
world that did not have any form of debts
whatsoever. Libya had more money than it's
population could use and had billions stores a
way around the world. All the money Libya
stored in Europe has been squandered by
European governments.
6. During Gaddafi's lifetime, AU functions
were fully funded by Libya, accommodation
for leaders, transportations, and day to day
activities at the AU headquarters, now that is
being done by European Union. As the saying
goes "He who pays the piper calls the tune"
These are hard facts of what Colonel Gaddafi,
self proclaimed African King of Kings did to
the Continent only for us to watch him
humiliated and killed like an animal without
us raising a voice.
7. Gaddafi spent millions and millions helping
Mali and niger with high level irrigation in the
deserts so people can be self sustained.Paid
full and never expected anything back.
8. Way before the BRICS came up with idea of
forming their own development bank to rival
world bank and IMF, Gaddafi already initiated
a high level talks into starting an African
Development Bank where African
governments would go and borrow money at
low rates for developments of things like
infrastructure, academic institutions, medical
institutions, research institutions among
other things. This would have saved Africa
from IMF and their predatory lending habits of
structural adjustment programs which are
notorious in keeping countries in porvety
while they take ownership of your natural
resources.
Gaddafi was not perfect or an angel, but he
was better than 80% of the world leaders.
NOW LOOK AT YOUR LEADER AND THEN
COME HERE AND CONDEMN GADDAFI.
The people Nato helped from Benghazi to
attack Gaddafi are all now confirmed
members of ISIS creating chaos in North
Africa and middle east.
Bob Marley once sang "How long shall they
kill our pro[hets, while we stand a side and
look"

I believe the death of Gadaffi had solve Libya's problem, me and my brother wept watching the men kill their own leader. He died for them, just like the travail of Christ. We don't know what we want and we don't want leaders that knows what he wants. May Gaddaffi find honor in history and forgiveness with his maker. |
