Don't believe what you read. Not even what you "see" on TV  - it's often fake.


Gadaffi provided good standard of living for the people of Lybia. The "revolution" was staged by the US when they couldn't get the oil and buy the land any other way, nor bribe the government. I've seen it in my country - first hand. US sponsoring "revolution". Openly. As far as human rights go, there were more in the socialist era, than there are now. When you have no jobs and way to pay for food, you don't have much human rights.


As far as Trump goes - US (and my county's president for that matter) are just puppets. Working for the big capital. Choose between democrats and republicans, but they both will make the rich remain that, and make the poor stay that way. If elections could really change things, the powerful people would not allow them.




Just a bit of history:


"[color=rgb(37, 37, 37)]After the U.S. accused Libya of orchestrating the [/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]1986 Berlin discotheque bombing[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)], in which two American soldiers died, Reagan decided to retaliate militarily.[/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)][189][/color] The [color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]Central Intelligence Agency[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)] were critical of the move, believing that Syria were a greater threat and that an attack would strengthen Gaddafi's reputation; however Libya was recognised as a "soft target."[/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)][190][/color] Reagan was supported by the U.K. but opposed by other European allies, who argued that it would contravene international law[color=rgb(37, 37, 37)].[/color]

[color=rgb(37, 37, 37)]...[/color]

[color=rgb(37, 37, 37)]In 1989, Gaddafi was overjoyed by the foundation of the [/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]Arab Maghreb Union[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)], uniting Libya in an economic pact with Mauritania, Morocco, Tunisia and Algeria, viewing it as beginnings of a new Pan-Arab union.[/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)][211][/color] Meanwhile, Libya stepped up its support for anti-western militants such as the Provisional IRA,[color=rgb(11, 0, 128)][212][/color] and in 1988, [color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]Pan Am Flight 103[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)] was blown up over [/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]Lockerbie[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)] in Scotland, killing 243 passengers and 16 crew members, plus 11 people on the ground. British police investigations identified two Libyans – [/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]Abdelbaset al-Megrahi[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)] and [/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]Lamin Khalifah Fhimah[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)] – as the chief suspects, and in November 1991 issued a declaration demanding that Libya hand them over. When Gaddafi refused, citing the [/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]Montreal Convention[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)], the [/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]United Nations[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)] (UN) imposed Resolution 748 in March 1992, initiating economic sanctions against Libya which had deep repercussions for the country's economy.[/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)][213][/color] The country suffered an estimated $900 million financial loss as a result.[color=rgb(11, 0, 128)][214][/color] Further problems arose with the west when in January 1989, [color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]two Libyan warplanes were shot down by the U.S. off the Libyan coast[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)].[/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)][215][/color] Many African states opposed the UN sanctions, with Mandela criticising them on a visit to Gaddafi in October 1997, when he praised Libya for its work in fighting apartheid and awarded Gaddafi the[color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]Order of Good Hope[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)].[/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)][216][/color] They would only be suspended in 1998 when Libya agreed to allow the extradition of the suspects to the [color=rgb(11, 0, 128)]Scottish Court in the Netherlands[/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)], in a process overseen by Mandela.[/color][color=rgb(11, 0, 128)][217][/color][color=rgb(37, 37, 37)]"[/color]
Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.
