Trickle Down Tyranny (25 page)

Obama left the task of responding to the letter to his Secretary of State, who answered mysteriously, “I don’t think there is any mystery about what is expected from Mr. Gadhafi at this time.”

Militant black nationalist and Ghadafi/Nation of Islam sympathizer Louis Farrakhan, Obama’s friend and a longtime supporter of Ghadafi, shed additional light on the situation and on Obama’s loyalties when he said, “I love Moammar Gadhafi, and I love our president. . . . It grieves me to see my brother president set a policy that would remove this man not only from power, but from the earth.”

Still can’t figure out what the U.S. policy was?

You’re not alone.

The Obama administration continually sent mixed messages about our involvement in Libya. Press Secretary Jay Carney expressed it this way: “Our goal of having Gaddafi step down, take himself out of power or be removed from power, is a non-military goal.”

The “Responsibility to Protect” Doctrine Helps Islamist Radicals in the Middle East

I’ve found that liberals love the word
rebel
. To their teenage sensibilities, it conjures up images of 1950s actor James Dean in
Rebel Without a Cause
.

There’s something romantic about the word.

Rebels are worth fighting for.

Their use of the word is also one more way they show their ignorance.

The problem is that in Libya, the “rebels” were infiltrated by Islamist radicals, members of al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood who see the conflagrations around the Middle East as prophetic. To Islamist dictators and jihadis, the current uprisings are nothing less than a sign that the coming of the 12th Imam, the Mahdi, is imminent.

We’re supposedly fighting a war against these radical Islamic psychos.

While no one in our government is willing to confront this, Islamic radicals are not going away. They have been an integral part of the resistance to the decades-long rule of such dictators as Saddam Hussein in Iraq, Hosni Mubarak in Egypt, Moammar Ghadafi in Libya, and the Saudi royal family, leaders who implemented Western-style military dictatorships or family/tribal repressive monarchies that ran directly counter to the Islamist radical dictatorship in Iran.

As everyone but the leftists in the Obama administration knows, Iran is the center of the Islamist move to destroy Israel and the United States and spread Shariah law around the world. Iran’s purpose is nothing less than total domination of the West. The “responsibility to protect” doctrine and the selective way it’s being applied by the United States is helping to pave the way for a broad takeover of Middle Eastern countries by radical Islamist forces.

If you don’t believe that, take a close look at what’s going on behind the scenes.

You remember Mohammed ElBaradei, right? ElBaradei is the guy who led the inspections of Iran’s nuclear program when he was the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). In 2007, ElBaradei called for everyone to take a “timeout regarding the Iranian nuclear issue.” He hoped that Iran would suspend its nuclear “enrichment activity” and “go immediately to the negotiating table.”
²⁰

As it turned out, ElBaradei was just stalling for time. A year later he gave the Iranian nuclear program a clean bill of health, saying that Iran’s explanations of its suspicious nuclear activities “are consistent with [the IAEA’s] findings [or at least] not inconsistent.”
²¹
The
Wall Street Journal
described ElBaradei’s agenda in blunt terms: “In reality, he is a deeply political figure, animated by antipathy for the West and for Israel on what has increasingly become a single-minded crusade to rescue favored regimes from charges of proliferation.”
²²

In the meantime, yet another Iranian facility for the production of centrifuges used in the enrichment of weapons-grade uranium was discovered.
²³

ElBaradei’s pro-Islamist, anti-Israel agenda has made him a perfect mouthpiece for George Soros and the spread of the “Soros Doctrine” in the Middle East. In fact, he’s on the board of Soros’s International Crisis Group, and he was handpicked by Soros to be his representative in Egypt. On January 18, 2011, before the uprising in Egypt had begun, ElBaradei, in what was a veiled call to action for Islamists, warned that a “Tunisia-style explosion” could occur in Egypt.

Obama wasn’t standing idly by while all this was happening.

The U.S. knew as early as December 2008 that groups opposed to the Mubarak regime were developing a plan to overthrow the Egyptian government. They received the information from a young dissident who the U.S. had sponsored to attend a meeting for international political activists that took place in New York City.
²⁴

In addition, according to documents exposed by WikiLeaks, U.S. Ambassador to Egypt Margaret Scobey was aware of the plans of the Mubarak opposition group. Leaked documents also show that while the United States publicly supported the Mubarak government, U.S. Embassy officials continued to communicate with the activist in question throughout 2008 and 2009.
²⁵

After Mubarak left office, ElBaradei emerged as a key figure in a “shadow parliament” that formed in Egypt.
²⁶
The shadow parliament consisted of opposition leaders who were trying to develop plans for a transition to a new regime through “free and democratic” elections. Included in the group were representatives of the Muslim Brotherhood, the radical terrorist group responsible for the assassination of Egyptian president Anwar Sadat in 1981 and the seed group for other Islamist terrorist organizations, including al Qaeda.
²⁷
The Muslim Brotherhood seeks nothing less than a government based on Islamist principles, including the implementation of Shariah law and waging jihad against the West.

ElBaradei, given the fact that he looked the other way when inspecting Iran’s nuclear facilities, is very likely a puppet of the Iranian regime. In April 2009, ElBaradei told the press that “more U.S. engagement with Tehran’s leaders would increase regional security.”
²⁸

The list of the people on the board of directors of the ICG along with ElBaradei reads like a Who’s Who of international anti-American, anti-Israel zealots. It includes Javier Solana, one of the most powerful figures in the European Union. Because of his Marxist sympathies and his support for the regime of Cuba’s Fidel Castro, Solana was at one time on the United States’ subversives list. Former Clinton administration National Security Advisor Sandy Berger, who once smuggled incriminating documents out of the National Archives by hiding them in his clothing, is another board member, as is General Wesley Clark, once fired from his NATO command position.

Did you think that the people’s uprisings in the Middle East were being staged by Arabs seeking truly democratic governments?

Do you think that the people of Tunisia and Egypt share the same belief in the effectiveness of nonviolent protest that the wide-eyed innocents in the Obama administration hold?

Let me set you straight.

The U.S. closed its eyes as genocide was committed on a massive scale in the Middle East, as long as it wasn’t committed by an ally of the United States. So it was no surprise that we took the side of the rebels in Libya and against Ghadafi. The Libyan resistance is heavily infiltrated by radical Islamist jihadists.

And if you need proof of the fact that a substantial number of the “rebels” in Libya are al Qaeda affiliates, look no further than the “Sinjar documents.” In 2007, our forces in Iraq seized a computer with biographical records, including the countries of origin, of more than 700 insurgents who came to Iraq to fight against the American “invaders.” While more than 40 percent of the recruits came from Saudi Arabia, nearly 20 percent came from Libya.
²⁹
Many of them came back to Libya and joined the fight against Ghadafi.

Within a week of the beginning of NATO and U.S. involvement in the war in Libya, it appeared that things had changed dramatically in the rebels’ favor. Euro and U.S. fighter jets had shut down Ghadafi’s air force, and the balance of power seemed to have shifted to the insurgents. In other words, by shutting down Ghadafi’s airpower, the “allies” made way for such groups as al Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood to make advances toward their goal of establishing another radical Islamist government in the Middle East.

Sorobama and the Assassination of Moammar Ghadafi

But maybe the event that best sums up U.S. involvement in the Libyan war is the killing of Moammar Ghadafi.

Barack Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2009, and less than two years later we woke up to the realization that he was assassinating people around the globe.

He’s become the Assassin-in-Chief of the United States, violating U.S. and international law, killing whoever stands in the way of the global takeover by Obama and his colleagues. He does it through remote drone attacks, or by sending in Navy SEALs to do his dirty work, or through revolutionary surrogates.

When deposed Libyan leader Moammar Ghadafi was assassinated by Libyan rebels, Obama took credit for the killing. Ghadafi’s convoy was attacked by NATO forces as it tried to escape from his hometown of Sirte. He was wounded in the NATO air strike but escaped briefly, hiding in a drainage culvert until rebel forces found him. NATO says, “We didn’t know it was Ghadafi.”

In his comments on Ghadafi’s death, Obama never mentioned that the deposed Libyan dictator was captured alive or that he pleaded for his life to the bloodthirsty vermin who captured him. As he was pulled out of the storm drain where he had been hiding, so-called freedom fighters shouted one of the worst insults you can hurl at a Muslim: “You dog! You dog!” According to eyewitness accounts, Ghadafi tried to reason with his captors. He demanded his right to a trial as he asked them, “Do you know right from wrong?”

Their response was to beat Ghadafi to within an inch of his life before they shot him.
³⁰

The world cheers, Obama pats himself on the back, and not a single Republican condemns the brutality.

Ghadafi was a monster, but like every criminal under U.S. and international law, he deserved his day in court.

He was wanted by the International Criminal Court. Why wasn’t he arrested, arraigned, and sent to The Hague for trial?

All of this leads me to believe that he was killed on purpose. Were there CIA operatives on the ground in Libya who were told to kill him if they got the chance?

The rebels beat the CIA to the punch.

Now we have to ask why they wanted Ghadafi dead.

Why did they not want a trial?

What did Ghadafi know about higher-ups in the U.S. government, the French government, the British government that they did not want to come out?

How complicit were officials of the U.S. and Western European governments in the evil deeds of Ghadafi, including the downing in 1988 of Pan Am flight 103?

Even more to the point: Where was the outcry in the United States against Ghadafi’s murder?

Why didn’t we hear the peaceniks and the anti-death-penalty people shouting that Ghadafi was put to death without due process?

I ask you this: Are we going to descend to the level of the junta in Argentina, where unmarked cars take Americans off the streets, throw black hoods over their heads, and “disappear” them?

This deplorable event—the assassination of Ghadafi—gets right to the point of the fears that I express in the title of this book:
Trickle Down Tyranny
. The murder of Ghadafi should send chills of fear down the spine of every American, regardless of political affiliation or orientation.

It forces us to ask, “Who’s next?”

Yet few if any leftists said a single word about the execution-style killing of an unarmed Ghadafi while he was begging for his life. Certainly not the government mouthpieces on MSNBC—Mostly Snide Nonsense By Communists.

As I said on my show after Ghadafi was killed, “Here we have the U.S. media—who, I think, to the last empty skirt, opposed the death penalty—yet they are feasting on Ghadafi’s corpse. . . . Every day they espouse sympathy for murderers and rapists on death row—no death penalty—and yet here they celebrate the execution of Ghadafi by the puppets of the U.S. government.”

The assassination of Ghadafi without a single voice other than my own being raised in protest on that day had me so upset emotionally that I chose not to go on the air for my regular Friday broadcast the day after the event. I later found out that the UN actually raised some of the same questions, but I didn’t hear a peep out of any U.S. politicians, out of our president—nobody spoke out.

Nobody but me was willing to stand up personally. Nobody took a moral stand on this.

Why are anti-death-penalty liberals, of all people, supporting the execution of a head of state?

What did our Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, say?

She gloated over his murder.

Her words were, “We came, we saw, he died.”

We now have Hillary Clinton acting out her violent, bloodthirsty inner self, modeled on the Charles Dickens character Madame Defarge from
A Tale of Two Cities
.

Clinton celebrated the execution of a world leader—someone who begged to be spared—without a trial.

To Clinton it’s one big Fort Marcy Park.
