What exactly are we arguing here? It would help if we can separate the issues so that we can effectively deal with these complex issues. It is easy to listen to one simple clip on Youtube and use that as your support or anchor for some of your views. But that will be a very lazy approach.<br><br>I propose that we actually read or study a bit more of the subject in question, so that we can form some more informed opinion on what is actually happening before us here.<br><br>So, what are we arguing here? That Gaddafi, the mad dog of the Middle East, be allowed to continue his murderous killings of the Libyan people because Farakkhan thinks its a great idea? In case you don't know, the Nation of Islam, which Minister Farakkhan leads, is in the pockets of Gaddafi and his oil money--so do not be surprised that he would voice this opinion. What you should ask yourself here are: is there any sense in the actions of these Libyan rebels? Is Obama's policy here the wisest? What are the other countries of the world doing with regard to this Gaddafi issue? What may be the likely outcome of present policies etc.<br><br>Please let us not reduce this to a simplistic black or white matter. It is not as simple as it is. And for those that are drawing parallels to Nigeria or Ghana, please be informed that Libyan politics is so different from Nigeria's or Ghana's.Godfatherhttp://1godfather.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353337185578030295.post-38786630214390672372011-03-21T18:37:09.000-04:002011-03-21T18:37:09.000-04:00Marvin Breaker says:this man can Voice, all i know...<strong>Marvin Breaker</strong> says:<br><br>this man can Voice, all i know is anywhere there is oil there u see Americans, they hunt for oil, like we hustle for money, and they will do anything to get it, i mean"anything",TRUST ME!!!Godfatherhttp://1godfather.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353337185578030295.post-11880525330273829132011-03-21T18:38:30.000-04:002011-03-21T18:38:30.000-04:00Hans Says:I pardon to tell you that, this is not j...<strong>Hans</strong> Says:<br><br>I pardon to tell you that, this is not just about Qaddafi and what he got and not got. You are getting something wrong here... Who started the firing? Has America not tried this long before and failed. Do you hear what China and Russia are saying? Have you forgotten the 3rd world war? Go read about the fall of Dr. Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana and come back. Farrakhan is another spectator like me and you, but when people make sense of any issue, is it not for us all to learn from it? These rebels started a demonstration... and what next? When they were pushed back to stop the demonstration , they started with stones. Tell me which demonstration on earth do get state police involved? I which you will know the scoop of this because it is very sad. Forget about Farrakhan... just tell us your point of view. This man Qaddafi is human like me and you. U don't want to compare Ghana/Nigeria to what? We have a democratic nation, yet what? greedy bastards loot monies and me and u do what? keep sending money back home. " Half a loaf is better than none. I am waiting on your opinion. thanks...Godfatherhttp://1godfather.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353337185578030295.post-50132905165265774352011-03-21T18:40:42.000-04:002011-03-21T18:40:42.000-04:00Prince Ugo says:Wonderful point Hans Boachie<strong>Prince Ugo</strong> says:<br><br>Wonderful point Hans BoachieGodfatherhttp://1godfather.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353337185578030295.post-1446179724966469202011-03-21T18:42:39.000-04:002011-03-21T18:42:39.000-04:00Hans says:There are many instances to this. I will...<strong>Hans</strong> says:<br><br>There are many instances to this. I will not even stress on the USA’s business there in Libya; but it is just too obvious. All I am saying is that, Obama should look at the wider picture? France benefits a lot from Libya’s oil? For all these year they benefited from the oil, didn’t they see Qaddafi was evil, a massacre and all that names they using on him? Why do you think America lost the Sudan war? Because the people later noticed their oil was been looted. Let me stretch back on the affairs now… my brother we are all Africans like I am saying. The point is when the demonstration started who fired guns first? Forget about all this usa policy bro and let’s focus on our African country been brutalized by each other. Usa foreign policy is always a broken alley. Now if they move Qaddafi out? Who will be the next president as they want? You will see…at the end of the day, oil will be the main issue. We all hear it over the news that…the oil has no business in USA invasion, yet gas prices are going up day in day out. Let not be blinded by anything.. Let us look at the picture widely and make our points clear. So now we all understand that the USA owns the world? Fellas USA is making enemies day in day out. It is not even like the days when you travel and they see u holding a USA passport and they bow to you… people look at you and laugh at you… This whole fights in African/Libya is all about someone dissatisfaction and personal interest. Bring your mind to African Tradition when they didn’t know the Bible, people feared to do evil… but now what? Yes… until African learn to do things their own way, like the Chinese and Japanese did… we will remain poor and always be used by our own people with the influence of foreign/ western terminologies rocking behind closed doors and infesting our people with dirt to fight against our own people… please don’t amend states of anybody trying to hate America, because we are all here. But what is wrong is wrong. Look at Afghanistan.. what happened? Now the USA is saying sorry… why? What is wrong for the invasion in the first place.. they have left this country and their people to build their country back… how would they do that? After innocent and knowledgably people killed, school burnt down, human displaced and those who call themselves the government are now sucking their own peoples blood. For how long will it go like this? Tax payers monies been displaced and used for unnecessary things. Why do you think congress and the democrats are mad? I leave it unanswered… May God have mercy on us… Long Live Africa.Godfatherhttp://1godfather.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2353337185578030295.post-90992301712297471802011-03-24T05:36:46.000-04:002011-03-24T05:36:46.000-04:00I am in tandem with the submission above.
