SAS enters Libya (Mail on Sunday).
Libya, once one of the poorest countries in the world, now has the highest Human Development Index score in Africa. (Wikipedia.)
It is well ahead of certain countries in Europe, thanks to Gaddafi.
On 26 February 2011, at the UK's Independent, Peter Popham had an article entitled "Tribalism is key to the Libya's future". (Thanks to Blackwatch for the link)
Popham makes the following points:
1. Gaddafi came to power as a force for modernisation.
2. He "turned the desert green ... and raised the literacy rate from 17% to 80%.
3. He called for an end to tribalism.
Tribalisms influence has weakened, "as more modern ties of schooling and urban neighbourhoods gained in importance."
According to former British ambassador Sir Richard Dalton: "Tribal origins have no existence in Libyan institutions or in public affairs."

BUT, Gaddafi opposed the New World Order, and so his country has to be wrecked.
On 27th February 2011 we read that the UK's notorious SAS are in Libya.
"The Special Forces soldiers landed in two C130 Hercules military transport aircraft on a landing strip ... south of the eastern port of Benghazi...
"A senior source confirmed that an advance party of SAS men had been in Libya for several days...
"The SAS party had sneaked into Libya in plain clothes on commercial flights...
The UK's HMS Cumberland "is due to return to Benghazi".
Another Royal Navy ship, the destroyer HMS York, "has also been deployed on standby".

On 26 February 2011, three people were killed in clashes in Tunisia's capital: (ministry)
Now that Tunisia has been wrecked, thousands are fleeing. (Chaos, militant Islam and thousands fleeing Tunisia.)
According to the Mail on Sunday:
On 20 February 2011 demonstrations continued in Tunisia.
"I see one father with his son, aged five.
"As the police fire warning bullets into the blue sky, I ask him if he is afraid for his child.
"He unzips the boy’s jacket to expose his chest.
"‘My son is ready to take a bullet to the heart for freedom,’ he says.
"The child’s face crumples..."

"I meet 36-year-old Muhammed.
"He also dreams of getting rich, but not in Tunisia.
"He is unemployed and does not care about the revolution...
"'A few days ago, I heard from a friend of a boat going from Zarzis to Italy.
"I paid $1,800...
"What about the revolution? I ask him.
"'I don’t care about revolution. My dream is Italy,' he says"
The Italian government says 300,000 may try to reach Europe...
Tunisia ... was renowned for being the most liberal of Muslim countries.
"There are troubling signs ... A Polish priest had his throat slit in a suburb of Tunis...
"The Vatican news agency said he was beheaded."
Afghanistan
The Pentagon plan may be to make North Africa just like Afghanistan.
"The gangsters, both foreign and Afghan, are the ones now in control of Afghanistan," says General Ali Shah Paktiawol, the former head of Kabul’s Criminal Investigation Department. (How to make a killing in Kabul.)

Mubarak wanted Nukes, to deter Israel.
The United States does not rule out military action 'in response to the Libyan crackdown'. (Gun battles rage in Libya, US examines options )
Remember when NATO broke up Yugoslavia.
British special forces are ready to go to Libya (Libya: Special forces could help evacuate stranded oil workers)
UK and US special forces have already been working alongside Libyan special forces. (SAS trains Libyan troops - Telegraph)
The US and Libyan military sometimes work together.
On 23 February 2011, Yoichi Shimatsu, at New America Media, writes that America's Next War Looms in Libya
From this we learn:
1. On 22 February 2011, Gaddafi accused the USA of organising the current rebellion against his regime.
Now there are calls for the U.S. military to impose a no-fly zone over Libyan airspace, as was done over Kosovo during the NATO campaign to partition Yugoslavia in the late 1990s.
"In the Balkans case, the no-fly policy led to shoot-downs followed by an invasion of ground troops."
2. The Pentagon has a special forces base in the southwestern region of Fezzan in Libya.
Under a $165 million contract, General Dynamics provided high-tech communications for Libya's mobile elite forces.
The US Embassy's Jared Caplan talking with Libyan officials in the south region of Libya.
3. As shown in U.S. diplomatic cables, the US intrigues against Gadhafi involve secret ties with the Islamic Fighting Group, or al-Jamaa al-Islamiyya al-Muqatilah, which is on the State Department list of terrorist groups.
4. When confronted by Libyan officials, Al Jazeera producers admitted to broadcasting faked tapes.
For example, fake tapes of jets flying (in daylight) over protesters (in nighttime darkness).
That admission of falsified images could back the regime's claims of atrocities against civilians being exaggerated and sometimes fabricated.

5. What is happening across North Africa, is a U.S.-sponsored Islamic uprising, similar to the bloody Muslim coup against Indonesian independence leader Sukarno.
6. Mubarak wanted Egypt to have nuclear weapons in order to restrain Israeli aggression in Gaza and Lebanon.
The supplier of uranium would be Libya.
There has been a French-Libyan agreement to jointly build a civilian nuclear power plant, proposed during President Nicholas Sarkozy's visit to Tripoli in July 2007.
Libyan-Chadian uranium could be transported to Egypt via Ben Ali's Tunisia.
"Washington, as the protector of Israel's nuclear monopoly over the Mideast and Africa, went for a takedown of all three regimes."
