The diplomatic preamble was well orchestrated by Hillary Clinton. The pressure applied on its neighbours and the exploitation of the Arab Spring which very well been psy op that toppled or weaken hostile powers to the US and Israel.

[@joshuagunderson6593]

Huh? There were massive pro-government protests and lots of Libyans fought for and supported Gaddafi. The point they’re making is that the US gave a massive advantage to the anti-government side which allowed them to kill Gaddafi etc etc. without US support it’s very likely the anti-government side would have been defeated.

Honestly the most accurate description of Libya.

[@MrZombiekiller23]

Because they didn't kill gaddaffi, it was a US backed rebel group made up of foreign fighters from around the region, very little was from Libya and very little were calling for a violent overthrow...you only think so because for some reason you believed the western media that sold it all as "the Arab spring"..

As an Egyptian, I can say that Egypt was a mess back then - but at least our agencies were able to hold the line. The protests' demands were met, President Morsi was finally removed from office and many of his supporters had proven to be infact terrorists.

You should search for libyan communities, i recommend the libyan subreddit, but here let me tell you as a libyan myself (i did not live during gaddafi era, but based on my parents, I'm glad i didn't) It's basically gaddafi never really cared for libya, he gave the most basic human life services such as poor housing, food, yeah that's it, average libyan goal in life was getting married and managing to secure food for tommorow, so was he good? No, i can yap to you for a while but that's most of it, he also was brutal as he executed people publicly can left many of his soliders in war when it was over, causing them to die, he was so dictatorship anybody who opposed him was dead, no freedom, his ideology was also very stupid, one of the lines i find most ridiculous in his green book is that "if you live in a house, it's yours" which meant that if you're selling rent at gaddafi's regime you're done, which caused many landlords to go bankrupt, and and and and, i think you got the hang of it, I honestly don't know why people say they lived good under him like all i hear is bad, anyways if you wanna ask anything be sure to tell!​@@Meesens

[@yijiequ662]

In "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2," General Shepherd says: "The more things change, the more they stay the same. Boundaries shift, new players step in, but power always finds a place to rest its head. We fought and bled alongside the Russians. We should have known they’d hate us for it. History is written by the victor. And here I am thinking we’d won. But you bring down one enemy and they find someone even worse to replace him. Locations change, the rationale, the objective. Yesterday’s enemies are today’s recruits. Train them to fight alongside you, and pray they don’t eventually decide to hate you for it too." How ironic what happened to Sudan and Syria today, when they were supporting to overthrow Gaddafi... The old Chinese saying "唇亡齿寒" (chún wáng chǐ hán), which translates to "If the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold." This proverb means that closely related things are mutually dependent, and the loss or harm of one can negatively impact the other.

[@LeekeeBum-e1k]

I’m not from Libya so this my personal opinion. But after seeing documentaries about the country, I feel as although gaddafi was and foremost a dictator. He did bring one thing to the nation and the region. Which was stability, vice news did a documentary, in which one man stated, that I fought against gaddafi in the war but if he was around I would fight for him. Libya now is state of corruption and instability but under gaddafi it was a stable nation. It’s almost like saddam Hussein. Although a absolute terrible man and dictator I’m not praising him in anyway but saddam did bring somewhat stability. With Iran and the ex monarchy. The region was stable.

[@schneejacques3502]

In my country korea there is a person named 'empress myeongseong'. She was a queen that had control over the country in the 19th century. 19th century was a age of change and if korea was to survive it needed change. She insted spent 10% of the country budgets on parties and she attacked any korea politician that wanted to change the country. Because of her peasant rebellion happened and rather than sending korean army she sent Chinese army and gave huge huge economic opportunities to china. Insted of developing the country she wanted to give away rights to china for security while not deveoping the korean army. When sino Japanese war resulted in Japan victory she sent letters to russia and tried to make russia the new china. Japan noticed this and sent thugs to kill her. Japan thug supposedly pissed on her corpse and raped korean women along the way. Now she has turned into a korea hero who died fighting against Japanese imperialism. She was cancer to korea yet because she was killed by Japanese thugs she was martared. Both far right and far left korean sees her as a hero. When historian tries to say how she destroyed korea far right korean accuses of you being pro japan while far left accuses you of being sexist. This is how I feel about gadaffi. Gadaffi was not pan arab. He just wanted to become the leader of the arabs. When he didn't become that he threw a fit, invaded egypt, loose and cried like a baby. Gaddafi was no pan africanist. He helped the france in assassinating Thomas Sankara, a pan africanist leader in Burkina fiso. He supported the RUF in Sierra Leone civil war. The RUF would cut off civilians hand off to stop them from voting. He also brutaly oppressed berber culture. Also he was no pro secular. He supported islamist in Indonesia acheh. After he took power the intention of reestablishing sharia was announced, and Gaddafi personally assumed chairmanship of a commission to study the problems involved. In November 1973, a new legal code was issued that revised the entire Libyan judicial system to conform to the sharia, and in 1977 the General People's Congress (GPC-see Glossary) issued a statement that all future legal codes would be based on the Quran, among the laws enacted by the Gaddafi government were a series of legal penalties prescribed during 1973 which included the punishment of armed robbery by amputation of a hand and a foot. Now did NATO killed him because of the goodnes of there heart? NO! But he was not a good leader!

What stability are you talking about ? These dictators like Saddam, Gaddafi, Bashar Putin, and all the other ones bring is not stability but stagnation.

Armchair historian is a shameless propagandist and he does this often.. he whitewashes US crimes, so he is complicit in their genocide.. what's more infuriating is that his government with his support create these "fundamentalist" groups and afterwards blame it on Muslims and people buy it.. Take Al Qaeda for example.. The CIA created Al Qaeda in Afghanistan, and now just look at any one of these conflicts in Muslim countries and see which side is supporting who.. 1. Libya : US funded and supported Al Qaeda 2. Syria : US funded and supported Al Qaeda 3. Syria : US funded and supported ISIS 4. Iraq : US funded and supported ISIS 5. Yemen : US funded and supported Al Qaeda He also blatantly lied about the housing crisis in Libya as there was no housing crisis, Libya has free housing for everyone.. He didn't mention that the "rebels" were actually terrorists, Al Qaeda, who supposedly did 911.. He didn't mention that NATO terrorists bombed Qaddafi's private residence where his family lives killings his grandchildren, literal children and babies burnt and blasted by the US.. He didn't mention that these terrorists crossed the border from Chad and Niger, where they were being trained by the CIA, into Libya to cause the "uprising". Even their Arabic dialect was incomprehensible to the people in Tripoli.. He didn't mention that these "rebels" supported by the "international community" opened literal slave markets in Libya after toppling the government, where they sold Libyan men into slavery and women into sex slavery to other rebels, bought and sold by US aid dollars.. He didn't mention that Libya went from being the most developed African country into a failed state 13 years on and now people just enjoying the fruits of good old western democracy and freedom sponsored by the US and their NATO allies, so called "international community"
