We are constantly being lied to by our government. IF you think Libya was to protect a few protestors from Gadafi you are mistaken. This was to rob them of their light sweet crude. And dole it out to Exxon and BP etc.
Gadafi also had tons of gold and millions of people who weren't usuric slaves. The gold is now missing, and the people have a central bank to enslave them. Apperantly its called democracy....
