This link will take you to the book, presented in three parts. After reading, it becomes obvious why the oligarchs considered Qaddafi a threat.

Where would humanity be if we had all lived by Gathafi's (so many spellings) guidelines in his Green Book? I dare say we would all be a lot happier, healthier and united. This 'Love Based' book and charter should be made free and available reading for humanity from a very young age.
Excerpt; "Convinced that the rights of Man, vicegerent of God on earth, cannot be the gift of a person nor exist in societies where exploitation and tyranny are practised, and can only be achieved by the victory of the popular masses over their oppressors and the disappearance of regimes which annihilate freedom;
that the establishment of the power of the popular masses will consolidate their existence on earth, when the sovereignty of the people will be exercised directly through legislative popular congresses and executive people's committees;
that human rights cannot be guaranteed in a world where there exist governors and governed, masters and slaves, rich and poor;"
Please read this book...

Courageous and iconoclastic & 'oh my oh my', because you made a post that I never thought I'd see here !!! Well done and my hat's off to you !! Thus, with reference to Libya and for some information from beyond the MSM veil, I also re-post some earlier points and observations :
1) Libya's offers to other African countries to trade, exchange and barter Libya's abundant gas and oil ( http://www.oilandgaslibya.com/ ) in exchange for agricultural produce, raw materials and especially Muamar Gaddaffi's thoughts, ideas and proposals for a Pan-Continental Africa GOLD backed currency { http://tinyurl.com/7ofccsu and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YuFwX4-G-iM }, which would thus have undermined existing notions of the "petro-dollar" and demand for the U$D as the Global Reserve Currency ... is Absolutely Critical to understanding NATO's War on Libya ;
2) An ever greedy corporate eye is being cast upon Libya's unlikely but very real Water resources ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Manmade_River ), which will be available for future export to Malta, Sicily, Egypt & Tunisia etc., { http://www.waterpolitics.com/2011/07/31/water-big.... } ;
3) Libya has almost no national debt & is NOT in hock to the Unholy & Usurious WTO/IMF/World Bank - Nexus. Libya's 2010 debt was less than $6.4 Billion & 9% of GDP at a per capita debt of only $970/person - (See line 99, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_external_debt ) ;
4) Having a State Owned Central Bank, Libya isn't a member of that Elitist Club of Private Central Bankers, the Bank of International Settlements. One of the first acts of "The Rebels" was to establish A New Private Central Bank of Libya ( http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article27881.htm ). This point can NOT be Emphasised Enough ;
5) Libya ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libya ) has a very small population relative to its size (~6.5M) & thus seems ripe for de facto take over in the always avaricious eyes of The Empire & the Global Oligarchs, who with the help, blood & lives of "The Rebels", will now seek to turn Libya into yet another Imperial Fiefdom.
6) Libya's Oil reserves are the largest in Africa and the 5th largest in the world & its Light Sweet Crude has lower refining costs ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_reserves_in_Libya ).

The modus operandi of this latest WAR for Resources & Imperial Hegemony is now increasingly clear for us all to see. Libyans should be extremely wary about "throwing the baby out with the bath water" and of "jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire" ; as becoming indentured Wage-Slaves to the Oily-garchs and being in perpetual Debt-Bondage to The Infernal Banksters will NEVER constitute Liberty, Prosperity or Dignity for Libyans or others.
e tenebris, lux ...
Hi shadz, Thank you for info. Corporate/US War Of Agression, will Bleed Libya Dry.
As ever 'Nev1', you're welcome and also pertinent to Libya and beyond :
Be warned though, it is hard hitting !!
caveat ...
Good article. Makes the point. Everyone should see this.
At a more bizarre but still very relevant and indeed - telling, tangent :
"Petraeus Mistress Suggests Benghazi Attack Was Aimed At Secret CIA Prison", by Tony Lee : http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article33003.htm &
http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article32999.htm .
Plots thicken, occasionally unravel and sometimes 'truths' are glimpsed !
multum in parvo ...
So, maybe Petraeus does not want to drone children. Affair or no affair, if not their man, he is gone.
Deception goes on in the second term.
Somewhat scandalously perhaps and a little removed from the forum-post but still pertinent to my earlier link, I append :
minma maxima sunt ...
The flavorite distraction of the week. One would think that there is nothing else that needs coverage. Winter is here and there are people all over that need shelter and not just from the two storms on the east coast - But Hey We got a Naughty CIA Chief ( ex ).
doesn't Libya have a dam to stop that ?
Good Post
The wars are ALL about the money,.always!,. never about "helping" the locals on the ground,. this is always a pretext. Why would the 1% corporate banksters that run the show give a sht about them?
When Democrats tell me about how Obama and NATO liberated Libya... it reminds me of republicans telling me Bush liberated Iraq.
They say "oh well they had an election." yah so did Iraq.
Gaddafi was no saint, but you have to be blind not to see that bombing Libya was really just part of the neocon war agenda planned years ago.
Many Americans are catching on to the lies. Which is why England and Turkey will most likely be jumping in at Syria instead of us.
Iran is the prize in the center
Those aren't legit rebels they're arming and giving money to... they're extremists and terrorist groups. Repeat of failed Reagan era policies. Sometimes your enemy's enemies are not your friends.
Libya is nothing like Iraq. To suggest so is blatantly dishonest!
More likely you are simply trying to falsely equate them to minimize the crimes of Bush.
Transparent partisanship. The election is over.
You want changes in our military policies. Then start targeting theroot!
The fear mongering propaganda must end. It started 1st, to create the support for these neocon policies, & it must end 1st!
Your continued neglect in addressing this fundamental issue betrays your partisanship.
Wake up! Libya, Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Lebanon, Iran, all planned out years ago during the Bush era. Common knowledge. Still continuing to this day. Common knowledge.
There's hundreds of thousands of hired mercenaries spread out through a bunch of countries. Hiring mercs and using drones is the new bring the troops home.
You can't bomb 5 countries in the last 15 months and still have 68,000 troops and a bunch of mercs in Afghanistan and say the war is over.
Congress doesn't have control over the drone strikes. This issue lies on the president.
Congress indeed can have hearings on the drone strikes. Your claim that "congress doesn't" is just a weak attempt at providing cover for your repub paymasters, and excuse the cover your silence gives them.
The Afghan war is NOT over. It's ending. Repubs would not do that. They would escalate. Merc use is down. Dems are more likely to continue reducing to zero. Repubs would increase.
And the "plan" you claim is "common knowledge" is based on a 10 year old youtube clip of Gen Wesley Clark. Who has since refuted those statements.
Why don't you focus on today. And use your efforts to denounce the fear mongering propaganda that must end in order to end the war on terror, drone strikes, & rights violations.
To ignore this root cause (of EVERY war) betrays your partisanship.
Congress can implement legislation. I've posted about this several times. I've even linked legislation about it that if passed would reduce or even end the drone strikes. You said the same bullshit you always do as a reply. "anti-dem campaigning" or whatever the fuck it is you say.
Congress is not authorizing the drone strikes. The president is. = FACT
Also Wesley Clark and many others have come out about the neocon war agenda. And the video you're referring to is 5 years old.
Libya, Somalia, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Syria
Bombed them, bombed them, 68,000 troops there, thousands of mercs still there, sanctions destroying a civilian economy along with war plans and surrounding the country, covert ops.
Big oil won in Iraq.
use your efforts to denounce the fear mongering propaganda that must end in order to end the war on terror, drone strikes, & rights violations.
To ignore this root cause (of EVERY war) betrays your partisanship.
Go read my comments. Calling it the Neocon agenda and pointing out the people who first implemented it... kind of talking about the root. When I've mentioned the Bush administration elsewhere you often tell me stuff like "Bush is president anymore"
Some people have even called me a conspiracy theorist because of my thoughts on the corruption of the Bush era and it's lasting effect on policy and the mentality of the USA. Their roots run deep and are indeed still there.
The repub efforts in the past are important to acknowledge.. Great. However TODAY there is still a neocon effort to push the same fear mongering propaganda to continue the war on terror.
THAT is what you are silent on! THAT is what is necessary to denounce because just as is the case in every war the propaganda comes 1st and must be denounced 1st.
The repubs went from cold war fear mogering to war on terror fear mongering.
Just listen to their extreme criticism when Pres Obama resists calling an attack an act of terror. Just take note of how the squeal about pres Obama not using the war on terror term. And there push back when he says that "Al Qeada has been decimated".
The repubs know Pres Obama says Al Qaeda has been decimated because he is going to declare that the war on terror is over. And then repubs military gravy train comes to a abrupt stop
So Ghaddafi was a hero?
It sure doesn't look like he's the "monster" that the US media and our government portrayed him to be.

I thought this was a very interesting post. Thanks sparky.
In US media, to the western world, he appeared insane, perhaps even insanely dangerous... but to me he appeared fearful, frantic... and so I began to wonder about the very same things you describe here. And I came to similar conclusions.
