Lack of alcohol.
Shortages of good regular rucks on Friday and Saturday nights must lead to a build up of tension. |

So 5 months on and the 'rebels' aka UK/US/FRANCE look to finally be getting control of Libya.
Although Oil is an obvious treasure for us in Libya I believe Gaddafi was very keen on creating a Gold backed Dinar currency for a large block of countries in Africa and the middle east which would be a major problem for the global hegemony the US Petrodollar currently holds.
It is also worth noting a certain Sadaam Hussein switched from the USD to the EUR just before his country Iraq was invaded.
Libya could well be the first of many currency wars , a fight to the end by the NATO alliance to keep the USD as the worlds top currency , I am afraid they are fighting a losing battle.
Whatever happened to fighting wars to protect your country and its citizens?
Libya has been quite easily captured in terms of losses both financial and militarily speaking so i'm sure the NATO terrorists will be eyeing up their next victim.
I would say Mr Chavez who was already on the radar has just increased the dangers to his people by demanding the UK sends his nations Gold reserves (99 Tons of bullion) that they are holding in the Bank of England back to Venezuela.
Is the Gold still there? and will this cause a run on the banks Gold reserves by other nations who hold gold at the bank?
Either way it is a very interesting development in international relations and one to keep an eye on. _________________ 'we were there to document the event' |

As described by the UN Terrorism is any act "intended to cause death or serious bodily harm to civilians or non-combatants with the purpose of intimidating a population or compelling a government or an international organization to do or abstain from doing any act"

Don just because the BBC doesn't tell us about NATO's crimes it doesn't mean that they are not taking place. _________________ 'we were there to document the event' |

That's precisely why it is so hard to debate with conspiracy theorists in a nutshell. |

Do you think there are any news sources that dont have a bias? If so, which ones are they? _________________ next year, we'll be champions.. |

Willo can you elaborate a bit on your comment?
Stan I think the majority of corporate owned media companies have a bias of some sort.
I watch and read a number of different media channels to try and get both sides of the story.
I watch a fair amount of RT (Russia Today) because they cover stories that are of interest to me and I also really enjoy watching the Keiser report.
Does RT have pro Russian anti American bias ? Probably yes. _________________ 'we were there to document the event' |

What about non corporate owned media? imo they are more biased than any other type.
So if all media has a bias, where can anybody get true news? They cant, so it's down to what you choose to believe, which is usually whatever media agrees with your POV.
I'm pleased we've got that sorted  _________________ next year, we'll be champions.. |

I disagree , I think that alternative media that is not funded by anyone other than its readers is the best place to get information.
What really happened is a good source of info , you would probably find it interesting as it is a US based site with lots of US political/economic issues.

So let me get this straight..you're saying that website that you just linked us to is 100% neutral & hasn't got any sort of political axe to grind. _________________ next year, we'll be champions.. |

I can't be 100% sure , who can ?
But as I said I think its a lot better to get information from non corporate 'alternative' sources like WRH.
I want to know about things that the corporate media don't want to talk about and sites like WRH give numerous links on a wide ranging group of subjects. _________________ 'we were there to document the event' |
