This wall stopped the terrorists from Al-Qaeda; This wall was Libya. You are destroying it, you fools... For the many thousands of migrants from Africa, for your support of Al-Qaeda, you will burn in hell, this is how it will be. ” Until 1968, Libya was a monarchy. 70% of the population lived below the poverty line. Many were illiterate and lived in simple nomadic tents. It was a typical, underdeveloped African country. Gaddafi provided Libyans with the kind of life that made the rest of the dark continent envious. Out of a desert, arose the "8th wonder of the world" - the Great Man-Made River [world's largest irrigation project]. He was able to create a system of irrigation throughout the desert, through an underground pipe network. Factories and enterprises began working throughout Libya, none of which were there before. Not having payed a single Dinar, Libyans moved from tents into apartment blocks. "Rent" did not exist. Everything - including utilities and power was covered by the government. "If we were to compare the way cities, such as Tripoli, looked before he came to power and after ... You would see that it went from an ugly village, to a city with highrises, 30 years later." So you want to get married? The government would give newlywed couples $64,000 USD towards buying a home. $7,000 USD toward each child born. You want a car? The government will cover 50% of the cost. Petrol in Libya used to be cheaper than water - 3 cents per litre. "Minimum wages were in the thousands of dollars, education abroad was payed for by the state, and cases where medical surgeries needed to be carried out outside of Libya, the state covered that too." "But to bring lasting peace to Libya would be impossible - this land will forever be torn apart by the leaders of these various tribes." "They can't and don't want to be ruled by a single person." That's what the leaders of the superpowers said in the 1970s. Colonel Gaddafi surprised everyone. He unified 140 tribes into one country. Each of these tribes had their own leader - the options for Gaddafi was either "scare them to death" or to buy them. Gaddafi preferred the latter. He promised them a heavenly existence, and he delivered on his words. Gaddafi: “We have oil - this is what will unite us. Oil is the reason that Libya stayed as one country.” Gaddafi nationalised the oil producing industry. He promised that the huge profits would be fairly distributed across the entire country. All Libyans began to receive their share of the Libyan oil trade. "When the people can see that a certain leader is raising the standard of living, of course he will have a lot of supprot." ...

[WAR] Yugoslavia - Wrongly Accused: The Absolution of Slobodan Milošević (by the ICT)

USA destruction of countries - in recent times in our consciousness and the public discourse are the following: - Iraq'a WMDs (non existent) - Libya's "liberation" from its civil war - Syria's chemical weapons (supplied by the CIA it turns out) But the war to destroy Yugoslavia has only just ended with the International Criminal Tribunal's case against Slobodan Milošević finally ending.

Signal on the Desktop, Plays FBI Subpoena

The makers of Signal, Open Whisper Systems, profoundly disappointed law enforcement. The app collects as little data as possible and therefore was unable to hand anything useful over to agents. "That's not because Signal chose not to provide logs of information," ACLU lawyer Brett Kaufman told the Associated Press. "It's just that it couldn't." "The Signal service was designed to minimize the data we retain," Moxie Marlinspike, the founder of Open Whisper Systems, told the New York Times. The subpoena came with a yearlong gag order that was successfully challenged by the American Civil Liberties Union. Signal's creators challenged the gag order as unconstitutional, "because it is not narrowly tailored to a compelling government interest." The challenge was successful. In addition to being popularly considered the best consumer encrypted messaging app available, Signal's technology is used by Facebook for Secret Conversations, WhatsApp for encrypted messages, and Google's Allo. Confronted with the subpoena, Marlinspike went to the ACLU for legal counsel. The ACLU responded with a letter saying that even though Signal did not have data the FBI sought, it still strenuously objected (PDF) to the fact the FBI wanted so much information.

[LIBERTY] [MINISTRY] SCOTUS: Bundy's exonerated, Judge slams “outrageous” abuses and “flagrant misconduct” of FBI and "Justice" Department
by Zenaan Harkness 13 Jul '18

13 Jul '18

Well here's a rare breath of fresh air for Murricans in a Supreme Court of the US (SCOTUS ) decision exonerating the Bundys - one for the history books, and well done folks, well firetrucking done!‼! Perhaps the Ruby Ridge $3 million payout will give precedent for the Bundy's (not that that can ever compensate for what the govt did on Ruby Ridge), but what's really needed is for you folk across the pond to get some proper grand juries going against the FBI and DOJ - the govt shills will shout "you citizens can't do that!!!" from the rooftops and every forum, but that won't stop a small committed and determined group from achieving their careful and well-planned approach to this "problem". Good luck, Government's Misconduct In Cliven Bundy Case Stems From Ruby Ridge https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-01-15/governments-misconduct-cliven-bun… (Quite a few links in the linked article) Federal judge Gloria Navarro slammed the FBI and Justice Department on Monday, Jan. 8, for “outrageous” abuses and “flagrant misconduct” in the prosecution of Cliven Bundy and sons, the Nevada ranchers who spurred a high-profile standoff with the FBI and Bureau of Land Management in 2014. Navarro condemned the "grossly shocking” withholding of evidence from defense counsel in a case that could have landed the Bundys in prison for the rest of their lives. Navarro, who had declared a mistrial last month, dismissed all charges against the Bundys. Navarro was especially riled because the FBI spent three years covering up or lying about the role of their snipers in the 2014 standoff. The Bundys faced conspiracy charges because they summoned militia to defend them after claiming FBI snipers had surrounded their ranch. Justice Department lawyers scoffed at this claim but newly-released documents vindicate the Bundys. In an interview Saturday, Ammon Bundy reviled the feds: “They basically came to kill our family, they surrounded us with snipers. And then they wanted to lie about it all like none of it happened." Many of the heavily-armed activists who flocked to the scene feared that the FBI snipers had a license to kill the Bundys. Their reaction cannot be understood without considering a landmark 1990s case that continues to shape millions of Americans’ attitude towards Washington: the federal killings and coverups at Ruby Ridge. Randy Weaver and his family lived in an isolated cabin in the mountains of northern Idaho. Weaver was a white separatist who believed races should live apart; he had no record of violence against other races — or anyone else. An undercover federal agent entrapped him into selling a sawed-off shotgun. The feds then sought to pressure Weaver to become an informant but he refused. After Weaver was sent the wrong court date and failed to show up, the feds launched a vendetta. Idaho lawyer David Nevin noted that U.S.: “Marshals called in military aerial reconnaissance and had photos studied by the Defense Mapping Agency. They prowled the woods around Weaver’s cabin with night-vision equipment. They had psychological profiles performed and installed $130,000 worth of long-range solar-powered spy cameras. … They even knew the menstrual cycle of Weaver’s teenage daughter, and planned an arrest scenario around it.” On August 21, 1992, six camouflaged U.S. Marshals carrying machine guns trespassed onto the Weavers’ property. Three marshals circled close to the Weaver cabin and killed one of their dogs. A firefight ensued and 14-year old Sammy Weaver was shot in the back and killed as he was leaving the scene. Kevin Harris, a family friend, responded by fatally shooting a federal marshal who had fired seven shots in the melee. The next day, the FBI sent in its Hostage Rescue Team snipers with orders to shoot to kill any adult male outside the Weaver cabin. A federal appeals court ruling later noted that: “FBI agents formulated rules of engagement that permitted their colleagues to hide in the bushes and gun down men who posed no immediate threat. Such wartime rules are patently unconstitutional for a police action.” FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi shot Randy Weaver in the back after he stepped out of his cabin, wounding him. Horiuchi then shot and killed Vicki Weaver standing in the cabin door holding their 10-month old baby. A confidential 1994 Justice Department task force report concluded: “The absence of a (surrender demand) subjected the Government to charges that it was setting Weaver up for attack.” Weaver and Harris surrendered after an 11-day siege. At their 1993 trial, federal prosecutors asserted that Weaver long conspired to have an armed confrontation with the government. The feds bizarrely asserted that moving from Iowa to a spot near the Canadian border in 1985 was part of Weaver’s plot. After an Idaho jury largely exonerated the defendants, federal judge Edward Lodge slammed DOJ and FBI misconduct and fabrication of evidence in the case. Regardless of the judge’s condemnation, FBI chief Louis Freeh in 1995 exonerated the FBI for its actions at Ruby Ridge. That year, after I slammed Freeh’s whitewash in the Wall Street Journal and elsewhere, Freeh denounced my “inflammatory and unfounded allegations.” Five months later, I snared a confidential 542-page Justice Department report on Ruby Ridge, excerpting its damning findings in a Wall Street Journal piece. The coverup unraveled and the feds paid the Weaver family $3.1 million to settle their wrongful-death lawsuit. A top FBI official was sent to prison for destroying key evidence. But the FBI sniper who killed Vicki Weaver never faced justice. When Boundary County, Idaho, sought to prosecute Horiuchi in 1998, the Clinton administration invoked the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution (which blocks local and state governments from challenging federal power) to torpedo their lawsuit. Solicitor General Seth Waxman absolved the sniper because “federal law-enforcement officials are privileged to do what would otherwise be unlawful if done by a private citizen.” While that claim may sway federal judges, it often fails to charm jurors. A Justice Department brief in the Bundy case revealed that prosecutors dreaded jury nullification — “not guilty” verdicts due to government abuses. That specter spurred prosecutors to withhold key evidence from both the court and the defense counsel, resulting in a mistrial and dismissal of charges. Judge Navarro rightly declared that “a universal sense of justice has been violated” by federal misconduct in the Bundy trial. Americans’ trust in the FBI and Justice Department will not be restored until those agencies are compelled to obey the law and the Constitution. Until that happens, federal prosecutors should continue fearing verdicts from Americans who refuse to convict those whom the feds wrongfully vilify. * * * James Bovard is a USA Today columnist and the author of 10 books, including “Lost Rights: The Destruction of American Liberty” (St. Martin’s Press, 1994).
