After
Me, the Jihad
Gaddafi’s Unheeded Warning to the West

By

January
16, 2016 “Information
Clearing House”
– Before the French 

Revolution and its Reign of Terror, Louis
XV predicted,
“After me, 

the Deluge.” Before being overthrown, Libya’s
secular dictator tried 

to warn the West of a new Reign of Terror,
essentially foretelling, 

“After me, the Jihad.”

This
was disclosed with the recent release of phone
conversations 

from
early 2011 between Muammar Gaddafi and former British 

Prime
Minister Tony Blair.

The
West was then gearing up to use unrest in Libya as a pretext for 

 military intervention and regime change. Gaddafi desperately
tried 

to convey through Blair the folly of such a war, pleading
that he was 

trying to defend Libya from Al Qaeda, which had set
up base in the 

country. He said:

“They
have managed to get arms and terrify people. people can’t leave 

 their homes… It’s
a jihad situation. They
have arms and are terrorising

 people in the street.”

Gaddafi’s
warning went unheeded, and NATO, led by the U.S. and 

France, launched an air war that toppled Libya’s government. Later 

that
year, Gaddafi (himself a brutal oppressor, like all heads of
state) 

was forced out of a drainage pipe, and then beaten,
sodomized, and 

shot in the street by a mob. His corpse was then
draped over the hood 

of a car.

U.S.
Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who had done
more than any 

single person to advance the Libya War,
was informed of Gaddafi’s 

death while on camera. Fancying
herself a modern Caesar, she chortled, 

“We
came, we saw, he died!”

Since
then, Gaddafi has been proven tragically right. As Libya
descended

 into civil war and failed-state chaos, jihadi groups
connected to Al Qaeda 

conquered much of the country. Libya
underwent the same American 

“liberation” that had already
befallen Afghanistan, Iraq, and Somalia — 

and would soon be
visited on Syria and Yemen.

Shortly
after Gaddafi’s overthrow, some of the now-rampant jihadis helped 

the CIA run
guns from Benghazi to
fellow jihadis in Syria. Benghazi
had 

been a rebel stronghold. The Obama administration claimed a
Gaddafi-

perpetrated “genocide” was imminent in that city,
using that claim as the 

chief justification for the war. There
was zero indication of such an 

impending atrocity. But
there was ample
evidence of an Al Qaeda presence

 in Benghazi, as Gaddafi tried to
tell Blair, saying that members had 

“…managed
to set up local stations and in Benghazi have spread the thoughts 

 and ideas of al Qaeda.”

After
the regime change, on September 11, 2012, the jihadis turned 

on
their U.S. allies in Benghazi, sacked the U.S. diplomatic
compound, 

and murdered Ambassador Chris Stevens.

Now
ISIS has spread throughout Libya. Just days ago, ISIS perpetrated

a truck bombing that killed dozens at a Libyan police
academy in
Sirte, 

a former Gaddafi stronghold. Indeed, Gaddafi informed
Blair that jihadis 

had “attacked police stations”
back in 2011.

Gaddafi
further warned Blair:

“They
want to control the Mediterranean and then they will attack 

 Europe.” And
ISIS has, indeed, been battling to take control of 

Libya’s
main oil ports in
recent weeks. The group has also long been 

planning to use
Libya as a base from
which to launch attacks on nearby 

southern Europe. ISIS did
strike Europe recently, most famously in Paris.

And
it was not just Gaddafi personally who had been ringing such 

alarms to the Western powers thirsting for his blood. His
intelligence officers 

produced reports demonstrating
that heavy weapons being sent to the Libyan 

opposition, with NATO
approval and Qatari financing, were being funneled 

to militants
with ties to Al Qaeda. At least one of those reports was even 

prepared in English to facilitate its transmission to key members
of Congress 

via U.S. intelligence.

Yet,
there was no need for the West to rely on the Libyan regime for 

information about the jihadi threat. Indeed, as emails recently
released by 

the State Department reveal, Hillary Clinton’s own
right-hand man had

informed her before Gaddafi’s overthrow that
rebels were committing 

war
crimes,
and that “…radical/terrorist groups such as the Libyan Fighting 

Groups and Al Qa’ida in the
Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) are infiltrating the 

NLC and its military
command.”

As
Brad Hoff reports,
that same email discloses that, very early in the 

Libyan
crisis, “British,
French, and Egyptian special operations units 

were training
Libyan militants along the Egyptian-Libyan border,

as well as in
Benghazi suburbs.”

They
would soon be joined by U.S.
special forces and the
CIA.

The
war in Libya that Hillary Clinton, U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice, 

 and Samantha Power of the National Security Council were driving 

 toward was so predictably a fiasco-to-come that, behind the backs
of 

the Amazon Warriors Three, America’s top
generals conspired with 

 leftie peacenik Congressman Dennis Kucinich to try to arrange a 

 peaceful resolution to the crisis. But the war-making diplomats 

 triumphed over the diplomacy-making soldiers. Hillary buffaloed 

 the brass and got her war.

Abundant
warnings of a Jihadi Deluge continued after the regime 

change, as
well. As Nancy Youssef wrote at The
Daily Beast:

“…many
celebrated Libya as a success story of limited U.S. 

intervention
despite obvious signs there of looming instability. 

The British
consulate in Benghazi came under an attempted 

assassination
attack the previous summer and other nations 

pulled out amid
rising violence. The U.S. consulate in Benghazi 

suffered an
improvised bomb attack around the time of the strike 

on the
British. And there were early signs of a rising jihadist 

presence
in the eastern city. In Tripoli, Sufi shrines were 

destroyed. (…)

“In
the months leading up to the [2012 Benghazi] attack, flags 

 belonging to a jihadist group, Ansar al Sharia, appeared in 

 Benghazi. Ansar al Sharia members also controlled security 

around
certain government buildings, including the hospital 

that would
try to save Stevens.

“In
that ensuing power vacuum, jihadists began claiming territory, 

 making it difficult for the moderate government to control the 

 country. By 2013, Libya’s oil production all but stopped as the 

 nation plunged toward civil war and a state led by two rival 

 governments on opposite ends of the country. Efforts to create 

a
unity government have so far faltered. Benghazi, the birthplace 

 of the 2011 uprising, became a terrorist haven. And today, many 

 Libyans yearn for the return of Gaddafi, however dictatorial his 

 regime was, because of the security that came with him.”

Conservative
politicos have long strained to use Benghazi to torpedo 

Hillary’s
bid for the presidency. But their efforts are crippled by their 

 own fundamental agreement with Hillary’s militarism. They
support 

the general policy of employing jihadis to overthrow
secular dictators 

(not only in Libya, but Syria
too).
So they limit themselves to whining 

about Hillary’s security
measures.

The
true Benghazi scandal indicts not just Hillary, but the entire 

 Western power elite, whose wars have, as Gaddafi warned, flooded 

 the world with
a Jihadi Deluge and installed a postdiluvian Reign
of 

Terror over us all.

Laten we na dit artikel niet vergeten, dat onder Khadaffi

huisvesting was gegarandeerd en gratis, energie was gratis,

scholing was gratis en studies in het buitenland werden

volledig door de overheid betaald, gezondheidszorg was

eveneens gratis, enz. enz. Van dit alles is geen sprake meer,

de energielevering werkt met wat geluk een paar uur per dag

en de infrastructuur is terug gebombardeerd, tot het niveau

van pakweg 1900……
