Tot 2011, toen door Obama en zijn mede oorlogsmisdadiger Hillary Clinton werd besloten, dat de toenmalige president van Libië, Khadaffi weg moest (iets dat men daar al decennia wilde)...... Op zeker, dat de opstand die daaraan voorafging werd gefinancierd en deels geregisseerd door de CIA, zoals deze geheime dienst gewoon is te doen, in landen waar VS onwelgevallige regimes aan het bewind zijn.......
Na ingrijpen van de VS (met hulp van o.a. Nederland) is het land leeggeroofd, platgebombardeerd en in grote chaos gedompeld, het eens rijkste land van Afrika, behoort nu tot de armste van dat continent...... Vrouwen hebben geen rechten meer en aan scholing hoeven ze al helemaal niet te denken
Afgelopen week kreeg ik al berichten te horen (o.a. BBC World Service radio), dat er nu in Libië slavenmarkten worden georganiseerd.......
Met de 'regering' van dat land, twee terreurgroepen, die door het westen als regering zijn aangewezen, overlegt de EU over opvang van vluchtelingen in Libië. Voorts wil de EU een blokkade op het doorreizen van vluchtelingen over zee richting Italië, zeg maar eenzelfde schoftenregeling als de EU sloot met de reli-fascistische hufter Erdogan van Turkije......
Vanmorgen ontving ik het volgende bericht van Anti-Media over deze slavenmarkten:
The Last Country We “Liberated” from an “Evil” Dictator Is Now Openly Trading Slaves

(ANTIMEDIA) It
is widely known that the U.S.-led NATO intervention to topple Libya’s
Muammar Gaddafi in 2011 resulted in a power vacuum that has allowed
terror groups like ISIS to gain a foothold in the country.
Despite
the destructive consequences of the 2011 invasion, the West is
currently taking a similar trajectory with regard to Syria. Just as
the Obama administration excoriated Gaddafi in 2011, highlighting his
human rights abuses and insisting he must be removed from power to
protect the Libyan people, the Trump administration is now pointing
to the repressive policies of Bashar al-Assad in Syria
and warning his
regime will soon come
to an end —
all
in the name of protecting Syrian civilians.
But as the U.S. and its allies fail to produce legal grounds for their recent air strike — let alone provide concrete evidence to back up their claims Assad was responsible for a deadly chemical attack last week — more hazards of invading foreign countries and removing their heads of state are emerging.
This week, new findings revealed another unintended consequence of “humanitarian intervention”: the growth of the human slave trade.
The Guardian reports that
while “violence, extortion and slave labor” have been a reality
for people trafficked through Libya in the past, the slave trade has
recently expanded. Today, people are selling other human beings out
in the open.
“The
latest reports of ‘slave markets’ for migrants can be added to a
long list of outrages [in Libya],”
said Mohammed Abdiker, head of operation and emergencies for the
International Office of Migration, an intergovernmental organization
that promotes “humane
and orderly migration for the benefit of all,” according to
its website. “The
situation is dire. The more IOM engages inside Libya, the more we
learn that it is a vale of tears for all too many migrants.”
The North African country is commonly used as a point of exit for refugees fleeing other parts of the continent. But since Gaddafi was overthrown in 2011, “the vast, sparsely populated country has slid into violent chaos and migrants with little cash and usually no papers are particularly vulnerable,” the Guardian explains.
One
survivor from Senegal said he was passing through Libya from Niger
with a group of other migrants attempting to flee their home
countries. They had paid a smuggler to transport them via bus to the
coast, where they would risk taking a boat to Europe. But rather than
take them to the coast, the smuggler took them to a dusty lot in
Sabha, Libya. According to Livia Manente, an IOM officer who
interviews survivors, “their driver suddenly said middlemen had
not passed on his fees and put his passengers up for sale.”
“Several
other migrants confirmed his story, independently describing kinds of
slave markets as well as kinds of private prisons all over in Libya,”
she said, adding IOM Italy had confirmed similar stories from
migrants landing in southern Italy.
The
Senegalese survivor said he was taken to a makeshift
prison,
which the Guardian notes
are common in Libya.
“Those
held inside are forced to work without pay, or on meager rations, and
their captors regularly call family at home demanding a ransom. His
captors asked for 300,000 west African francs (about £380), then
sold him on to a larger jail where the demand doubled without
explanation.”
When
migrants were held too long without having a ransom paid for them,
they were taken away and killed. “Some wasted away on
meager rations in unsanitary conditions, dying of hunger and disease,
but overall numbers never fell,” the Guardian reported.
“If
the number of migrants goes down, because of death or someone is
ransomed, the kidnappers just go to the market and buy one,”
Manente said.
Giuseppe Loprete, IOM Niger’s chief of mission, confirmed these disturbing reports. “It’s very clear they see themselves as being treated as slaves,” he said. He arranged for the repatriation of 1,500 migrants just in the first three months of this year and is concerned more stories and incidents will emerge as more migrants return from Libya.
“And
conditions are worsening in Libya so I think we can also expect more
in the coming months,”
he added.
As
the United States government continues to entertain regime change in
Syria as a viable solution to the many crises in that country, it is
becoming ever-more evident that ousting dictators — however
detestable they may be — is not effective. Toppling Saddam
Hussein led not only to the deaths of civilians
and radicalization within
the population, but also the rise
of ISIS.
As
Libya, once a beacon of stability in the region, continues to devolve
in the fallout from the Western “humanitarian” intervention –
and as human beings are dragged into emerging slave trades
while rapes
and kidnappings plague
the population —
it is increasingly obvious that further war will only create even
further suffering in unforeseen ways.
