US Fighter loaded with Depleted Uranium Weaponry
Many times throughout history we have seen US intervention in so many far away places and in some cases that intervention has gone terribly wrong. One classic failure was that carried out in Somalia that despite the massive fire power and with the assistance of coalition forces they had no option but to withdraw in humiliation.
In the world of “Geo Politics”.......if things are not going to plan and your commercial goals are not moving along at the pace you had hoped for then it is time to play dirty!
Divide and conquer has always been the rule and countries such as the US are very good at using this well tried military tactic in their attempt to force a regime change. As I have pointed out so many times before it is normal for a country to have its own Special Forces and secret service operatives infiltrating into the system. They do from time to time create an incident, such as blowing up a hotel or public transport system to spread fear and panic amongst the people and then blame that incident on such groups as Al Qaeda (which has never existed anyway) or some other opposition group.
Another common tactic is to infiltrate into break away groups or freedom fighters and assist them in whatever way possible......that can be in the form of financial support or in the supply of arms. We have seen this take place many times in Africa, especially in and around the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and certainly in Kurdistan where the US assist the PJAK on its regular incursions into Iran.
In Kurdistan there is rather a unique situation whereby two totally different groups of Kurdish Freedom Fighters exist. One group are called the PKK who infiltrate into Turkey (a member of NATO) to carry out operations for and on behalf of the Kurds that live there.
This group are listed by the US and UK as being a terrorist group and yet the International EU Court has de listed them as not being terrorists but freedom fighter. What this means basically (in the eyes of the US/UK) is that Turkey is allowed to cross over the border into Iraq, without any prior clearance, and carryout airstrikes or ground manoeuvres with tanks and troops any time it so wishes........this as we all know is truly a breach of Iraqi sovereignty and nothing is said.
However, in the case of the other group called the PJAK, who cross over into Iran to carrying out operations in support of Iranian Kurds, they are supported, financed and armed by the US and are not listed as terrorist...........unfortunately this is the way the US works when it is trying to enforce its own aggressive foreign policy that is so closely linked to “Geo Politics.”
I have intentionally diverted away from Libya for just one moment in order to explain how things get done and how sometimes these tactics can force a regime change. It also just happened to be the same situation in Afghanistan whereby the US/UK helped certain insurgency groups to get off the ground or provided military aid to adjacent countries to achieve their goals.
Their original intention was to construct the TAPI pipeline which was worth trillions of dollars to the US economy during its lifespan but things are not working to plan and so we now see a massive surge in troops that are mainly in the southern provinces which is the intended location for the pipeline and also happens to be the area for the opium trade.
This map shows the proposed US pipeline coming out of Turkmenistan down through Southern Afghanistan and across to Pakistan. The US government tried so hard to apply pressure to the Pakistani and Indian Governments into not signing up with Iran for their intended pipeline (IPI). The IPI pipeline is commercially a much better option as it is more direct and does not have to pass through a war zone. The Pakistan Government has since signed up with Iran and left the US licking its wounds. Obviously this still leaves India to make up its mind.
On the map below you can see the US backed TAPI pipeline in black with the Iranian backed pipeline below......it is clear that Iran is a problem for the US because it has no control, influence or contracts over Iran and that certainly hits the pocket of the “US Geo Political Master Plan.”.......Add to this the Iranian pipeline going through to Turkey and you can see why the US are so upset with Iran’s tremendous capability to not only provide the natural resources but also in the delivery to their own markets.
Whilst still on this map I would also like to draw your attention to another area that became the victim of “Geo Politic” and conflict.......Georgia as you can see was pulled into the same situation in order to build a pipeline from east to west, right through the centre of Georgia .........maybe by now you starting to understand what all these conflicts are all about?
Before moving back to Libya we should also look at the Sudanese situation where exactly the same situation as occurred i.e. divide and conquer tactics have been used to assist the Christian South to break away from the Islamic North or that is what we are led to believe. However, I see it through different eyes when it is a case of the “US/UK/EU Friendly South having most of the natural resources that the west wants!
In this map you can clearly see that all the natural resources activity is in the southern sector of the Sudan and that is the area of interest to not only the west but also China.
Libya is such a melting pot at the moment and again is a classic example of western interference and is certainly a victim in today’s greedy “Geo Political World.”
There is no doubt that the US and UK are fuelling this fast developing conflict with the ultimate intention of achieving a regime change or in gaining access to its oil and gas wealth. What makes Libya more lucrative is the fact that it sits right there on the edge of the Mediterranean, a stone throw from EU and certainly much closer to the US for supply.
Just think of the economical advantages in obtaining vast reserves from Libya, a much shorter distance than bringing crude oil all the way from the Persian Gulf via the Suez Canal or via the Cape.
I am absolutely sure that US led NATO is well ahead on its master plan to intervene and are already responsible for financing and arming the much smaller rebel groups that are currently active on the eastern side of Libya........we can almost see this as a rerun of what happened in the Sudan!
In the map below you can clearly see that the eastern aspect of Libya is extremely rich in natural resources (as show in the square) and one does not need much imagination to fully understand what the US led campaign is all about!
In the meantime we have voice box Hilary Clinton bleating to the world regarding the issue of a looming “Humanitarian Crisis” and that for the sake of humanity we have to help these poor people and that means intervention.
The US/UK suggestion (that is also EU backed) to create a “No-Fly Zone” is certainly an act of war and one could see this backfiring in a very big way with rather the opposite result of killing masses as opposed to helping them........such is “Geo Politics as its best.”
I believe there is a distinct link between what has happened in Tunisia (and previously Algeria) – Egypt – Yemen – Bahrain etc.......all of which is part of this US led master plan and has nothing to do with democracy.
One could even look at the situation in Egypt as a good example of internal unrest caused by very high unemployment and rising prices but who caused this in the first place? Who supported Egypt both financially and militarily........the good old US of A!
We must understand that the eastern part of Libya is extremely rich in natural resources and the unexplored wealth is beyond imagination so why wouldn’t Clinton continue to bark around Europe and the Middle East for support of her own “Geo Political Plan?”
One has to reflect as to why these conflicts/wars keep occurring....obviously first of all its good for business, especially in the US where its military hardware and software manufacturing industries have an incredibly healthy export market and secondly they want to gain access to these vast reserves with a US friendly President.........in actual fact Ghadaffi was a very good friend of the UK as far as trade was concerned and British industry played a major role in that country............one should ask our ex PM Tony Blair for a more detailed evaluation!
For my part Ghadaffi was just another person that became part of my Pandora’s Box series and was totally corrupt (along with his son) with dealings in massive fraud which still continues to this day, as it does here in the UK.........we are talking here about billions of pounds being siphoned out of the system with such boiler rooms as that of Arlington Associates, 22 Arlington Street, London, SW1A1RD, Lonrho Plc, 2nd Floor 25 Berkeley Square London, W1J6HB (in the Cadbury Schweppes Building) and another hot boiler room exists at 55 Gower Street, London WC1E 6HQ........all of these places are the axis of evil and run boiler rooms for virtual/shell companies
We are likely to soon see a run and burn event take place at these locations as these rogue virtual/shell companies that operate from these illegal boiler rooms flee the country or later re emerge under another banner...but have no fear...wherever you move too, Gordon Bowden and I will be on to you!!
But hey! Who cares that they are ripping off investor’s money and adding to the demise of the UK’s economy? Who cares that they are carrying out massive tax evasion? And who cares that the Corporate Sector, Banks and very senior politicians have there fingers in the money pie?
Now maybe you can see the bigger picture as to how the “New World Order” operates and how their master plan all comes together......its all about stripping the public of their income, jobs, houses and public services and in enforcing their “NeoLiberalism Policies” - that our dear old “Iron Lady” Maggie Thatcher brought with her from the US....how can we ever forget?
To the people of Libya all I can say is “Sorry for the greed that has radiated out from my country (and many others like it) and eternally sorry for the pain that you are about to endure........bless you all.”

The US and UK Governments extend their talons over Libya – Part 3
For God’s sake Barack I’m the mouthpiece for this government so step down!
Well folks here we go again with the same good old spin coming out of the bowels of the US Whitehouse and Pentagon with the backing of the UK and EU......believe it or not the dirty dozen are at their same old tricks they used in the Balkans, Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen and Somalia......oh sorry I forgot North Pakistan must be added to this list, where they are carrying out their daily incursions into Pakistan’s Sovereign Territory.
Can one ever imagine the repercussions if drones entered US, UK or EU airspace (without permission) and dropped Bunker Busters or fired Hellfire Missiles at selective targets killing many innocent civilians each and every month?
So we now see the US, UK and other NATO members of Europe on a “War Footing” and planning their next move, even despite the fact that they say that any decision will have to come from the United Nations..........interesting hey, considering they went into Iraq against the UN advice......oh well I guess it doesn’t matter anymore because we are seeing here the “The New World Order’s - Master Geo Political Plan” in its making.
It is extremely hard to keep up with the dialogue coming out of the US and the immense activity being carried out behind the scenes with Bill Gates and Admiral Mullen with our dear Hilary bleating in the background with her own well rehearsed spin!
Even Italian Prime Minister, Silvio Berlusconi is putting in his two cents (that is to say if he has any money left after all of his affairs) in supporting what action should take place and why not, the United States is spending an awful lot of money in Italy via its US Naval base in Naples........just in case you don’t know here’s a summary of what the US has in Italy - U.S. European Command. With its headquarters now in Naples, Italy, COMUSNAVEUR directs all its naval operations through Commander, U.S. Sixth Fleet (COMSIXTHFLT) based in Gaeta, Italy, and support activities ashore through Commander, Navy Region Europe (CNRE), headquartered in Naples, Italy. As of 2010, Naval Forces Europe is commanded by Admiral Samuel J. Locklear III, who also serves as NATO's Commander, Allied Joint Force Command Naples and not forgetting other US bases such as the Aviano Air Base (Northeastern Italy) which is also a NATO Air Base under USAF administration.
When you think about it any war or conflict is very lucrative business for the US with its massive military manufacturing base in both hardware and software. One could also say that its also good business for the local economies around the world where they have either US bases or NATO bases.......a few that come to mind is Belgium (the home of NATO), Germany with its massive bases, Italy and others.......all in all very good business to say the least.
So what’s the state of play, at the current time, and how close are we at seeing our big brother across the pond win the first round at the United Nations or in moving a motion at the current NATO meeting in Brussels?
Let’s briefly take a look at the rhetoric that has taken place since my last article, because believe me this is moving along at a phenomenal pace as one would expect when Oil/Gas is on the menu!!
We woke up to the headlines “EU and NATO to meet on Libya after days of battles”....rather dramatic don’t you think? Maybe we could look at the many days of battles that are on going, each and everyday at other locations around the world where maybe oil/gas and other natural resources are none existent or not so important....but hey then it doesn’t matter because the American Eagle can only carry so much in its talons!!
The article went on to say: The Pentagon said it was preparing a "full range" of military options for Libya, including a no-fly zone, with the plans to be discussed by NATO defense ministers at a meeting in Brussels.
"NATO is not looking to intervene in Libya, but we have asked our military to conduct prudent planning for all eventualities," NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen told Britain's Sky News…………….So you can see here a progressive build up in the preparation for, what will be, a very well planned action.
The other thing that is also happening in conjunction with the NATO meeting is a very well timed meeting of EU Foreign Ministers, hich also so happen to be in Brussels (how convenient) to discuss North Africa. Their focus will be how the EU can support (or should that be persuade) the political transition in Egypt and Tunisia, whilst at the same time implementing sanctions and others means against Gaddafi.
How many times do we see a repeat of this US, UK and EU interference in African and Middle Eastern matters……could it be that the Crusades never did finish or is it a case that “The Most Powerful Nation in the World” or should I say “The most indebted nation in the world”(around $15 trillion) wants to continue on with its own hidden agenda in policing the world with its aggressive foreign policy…….I am sure the Arab League (if it is still a functional body) would be most upset with their current activities.
So where is Dear Hilary whilst all this is going on and what is she saying……well once again U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has made it clear imposing a no-fly zone is a matter for the United Nations and should not be a U.S.-led initiative (who kidding who)!!
“ Ciao NATO continuare a inviare i dollari che ho molto da fare!”
(hello NATO keep sending the dollars I have much to do!)
Needless to say playboy Berlusconi is already rubbing his hands together knowing that huge amount of money will be brushing his already tarnished palms very soon for one very good reason: Italian bases would play a critical role in any military action, and he has made it clear that he will back any decisions taken by NATO, the EU or the United Nations, clearing the way for U.S. naval forces based in Naples to be deployed if needed….would you expect him not to accept such a lucrative deal? The Mafia lives on!!
Again let’s remind ourselves what is at stake in the world of “Geo Politics”……they want their hands on Libya’s oil and they also want conflict which is good for business and with the added ability to destabilize Libya even more and also many other the countries. Add to this the ongoing hike in fuel prices (Brent crude oil was rising toward $116 a barrel), the subsequent price rise in all essential foods and commodities and with the final result in slowing down the global economic recovery……this is the way the New World Order works………”Don’t you get it yet?”….this will add more unrest in the poorer countries of Africa and the Middle East causing more governments to become unpopular when they themselves are the victim of those who caused it in the first place. Let me again repeat a chapter from a previous article (from my Pandora’s Box series) which clearly shows how it works:
Can one imagine that the US for instance released at least two trillion dollars (between the United States and Brussels) to bail out the institutions that looted peoples money and were the principle culprits in bringing the financial system to its knees. This bail-out money was then repackaged and invested in the bourses (stock exchanges) around the world to generate profit. That not only created inflation all over the world, but it also drove up the price of food and real estate.
With this in mind, what then basically happens is, that those countries that have or continue to encounter civil unrest, slowly sink into a bigger hole, as their economy goes into a deadly spiral which then allows the World Bank/IMF to swoop in with its own talons and offer a bail out loan to stop that country from economic collapse. In coming to some sort of settlement there are then rules and guidelines set out by the IMF initiate before the bail out is allowed to proceed. What then happens is that the WB/IMF then have a foot in the door to dictate what a country should or should not do….......the WB/IMF is all part of the New World Order as is the UN, WHO and all their associated outlets…even maybe the International Court of Justice (ICJ) etc.
"Ignore the banner on the podium, we here in the United States do not abide by them”!!
Sky news recently interviewed Hillary Clinton regarding the situation in Libya….she was asked what more could the US do?
Her response: “Well, it’s not only the U.S., it’s the international community. And your government, the Government of the UK, and the Government of France are working on a resolution to try to get authority from the United Nations Security Council. Yesterday, the Gulf countries said that they would support a no-fly zone. The Arab League said they would not object to a no-fly zone.”
I myself find the latter support from the Gulf States and the Arab League remarkable when only the other day they were asking the US and the west to stay out of this conflict in Libya as it was an issue that should be solved by themselves and other Islamic nations……so was Dear Hillary making it up?
She was then asked if she would support it and as usual she came back with a well chosen reply: “Well, but I think it’s very important that this not be a U.S.-led effort, because this comes from the people of Libya themselves. This doesn’t come from the outside. This doesn’t come from some Western power or some Gulf country saying this is what you should do, this is how you should live. So –“
An interesting comment came from Senator John Kerry (an ex senior officer in the US Military) when he said: “I would only consider its implementation if Khadafy himself were using [air power] as a means of terror, as a means of massacring large numbers of civilians,” Kerry said. “And I think it is only then that the global community would begin to say, uh-oh, we’ve got to do something, now is the time you have to do it.”
I find Kerry’s statement rather ironic when his own government sends in B52’s to do “Carpet Bombing” in both Iraq and Afghanistan killing many thousands of innocent civilians. Even to this day they prefer to use their superiority in air power to attack area that are known to contain many civilians.......the use of US drones in North Pakistan is also totally indiscriminate and makes a mockery of his words.....could this be a case of "The pot calling the kettle black.”
The NATO Secretary General Anders Rasmussen said this week: “We can see a strong wind of change blowing across the region – and it is blowing in the direction of freedom and democracy” I can distinctly remember such wording used during the trouble in the Balkans, Iraq and Afghanistan and as I have clearly said before, this is nothing to do with freedom or democracy but all about the grab for oil.
So where does everyone stand at the current time:
In Europe, Britain and France have led calls for a no-fly zone and are working on a draft Security Council resolution. Other countries, notably Italy and Germany, are more cautious, while Turkey – a member of NATO but not the European Union – opposes the idea. Prime Minister Erdogan was reported as saying: “What does NATO have to do with Libya?” he asked. “NATO’s intervention in Libya is out of the question. We are against such a thing.”
Robert Gates is being very cautious in debating the “No Fly Option” as he fully understands the military implications should they attempt to carry out this option. We may remember the actions carried out by US military aircraft when they attacked the retreating army in Iraq.........some pilots actually enjoyed it and identified the mission as a “Turkey Shoot” The event was very well documented and become a blood bath of gigantic proportions......not to mention the excessive use of depleted uranium weapons.
One thing for sure is that should the US manage to convince the UN and NATO to carry out such an attack we are likely to see heavy usage of weapons that contain uranium components. That can only mean one thing to the people of Libya.....”Slow Mass Genocide” in particular the use of Depleted Uranium weapons. The “Uranium Oxides and their associated nano particles will not remain in the battlefield. This deadly aerosol will drift on the wind over the entire North African Region and across into Europe with a matter of a few days.......how can we, the world’s public, allow this madness to continue?
