    One Email from Sidney Blumenthal reads :

    Qaddafi’s government holds 143 tons of gold, and a similar amount in silver . . . . This gold was accumulated prior to the current rebellion and wasintended to be used to establish a pan-African currency based on the Libyan golden Dinar. This plan was designed to provide the Francophone African Countries with an alternative to the French franc (CFA).
    In a “source comment,” the original declassified email adds:
    According to knowledgeable individuals this quantity of gold and silver is valued at more than $7 billion. French intelligence officers discovered this plan shortly after the current rebellion began, and this was one of the factors that influenced President Nicolas Sarkozy’s decision to commit France to the attack on Libya. According to these individuals Sarkozy’s plans are driven by the following issues:
    1. A desire to gain a greater share of Libya oil production,
    2. Increase French influence in North Africa,
    3. Improve his internal political situation in France,
    4. Provide the French military with an opportunity to reassert its position in the world,
    5. Address the concern of his advisors over Qaddafi’s long term plans to supplant France as the dominant power in Francophone Africa
    Wonder what happened to all that gold and silver and to the between 100 and 150 billion dollars (depending who you believe) frozen in Libyan bank accounts ?
    Does not appear to have gone to rebuilding the country or reinstating the fresh water supply the humanitarian bombs destroyed.

    The way this has been edited implies that it was the a desire to get his hands on the gold that this was one of the factors "that influenced President Nicolas Sarkozy’s decision to commit France to the attack on Libya."

    When in fact a key sentence has been removed:

    3. Qaddafi has nearly bottomless financial resources to continue indefinitely, according to the latest report we have received
    Which the email went on to describe.

    You should ask yourself why the author felt compelled to remove this key piece of information from the email.

    Ah, I know, to sucker in idiots like you.

    Why is that such a key piece of information ?

    The document is clear on the reasons Gaddafi had to go, principally about him proposing an African gold based currency which would have sidelined the dollar.

    France was more than willing to be involved for their own selfish reasons.

    And it is clear that Hillary knew what was going on.

    Only the gullible like yourself still insist that Libya was decimated for humanitarian reasons.

    Clearly the fact that he had the resources to keep killing his own people was the major factor in taking him out.

    The rest of it is from unidentified "knowledgeable individuals" which means jack shit.
