PRIORITIES--BUSINES IS BUSINESS.



       Before the guns have fallen silent the West is showing its true priorities. The following report from Reuters tells you the way the West thinks. the oil giants are already on the private jets to take control of Libya's resources. This is what the blood shed was all about, what happens to the people is of little interest to the Western powers, they can rot in hell as far as the Western corporate world is concerned. Business is business!!!


MILAN (Reuters) - Libya's leading foreign oil producer, Eni of Italy led the charge back into Libya on Monday as rebels swept into the Libyan capital Tripoli hailing the end of Muammar Gaddafi's rule.
Gaddafi's fall will reopen the doors to Africa's largest oil reserves with new players such as Qatar's national oil company and trading house Vitol set to compete with established European and U.S. companies.
Shares in European companies Italy's Eni, Austria's OMV and France's Total rose by 3-5 percent despite a $2 fall in the price of oil on hopes the firms would be able to quickly re-establish output from Libya.
Italy's Foreign Minister Franco Frattini said staff from Eni had arrived to look into a restart of oil facilities in the east of the country even as fighting between government troops and the rebels continued in Tripoli in the west.
"The facilities had been made by Italians, by (oil field services group) Saipem, and therefore it is clear that Eni will play a No. 1 role in the future," Frattini told state

PROTECTING PEOPLE BY BOMBING THEIR CITY!!!

          
     Cameron's Libyan war crashes on with the anticipated escalation and so another night of heavy bombing in Tripoli, this blows wide open the sham about NATO protecting civilians. The West wants Gaddafi's oil and wants him out of the picture, protecting civilians is just the attempted slim badge of legitimacy. So Gaddafi goes, the West rushes in to support the "rebels" in Benghazi and a long civil war ensues. The West sends in a peace-keeping force and starts to take control of the oil as in Iraq, and as in Iraq, not giving a shit about what state the country of Libya ends up in, just as in Iraq. The people can fight and kill each other while the Western corporate world gets on with the business of milking the people and the country of its oil. When Gaddifi goes it will be interesting to see if the new regime spends as much of the oil revenue on free health care and free education as the Gaddafi regime, time will tell.
