Let’s hope that on Valentine’s Day, 2111, we are not ‘celebrating’ the unknown thousands of lives lost in the past century, still fighting the war over the hole-in-the-sand, formerly-known-as-Misrata, in the continuing US-led-NATO vs. the Great-Grandsons of Ghadafi contretemps.

Gadhafi is smart…
OK, he’s not a nice guy but he is outplaying the US and its nato vassals / capo (the names given to prisoners in charge of guarding other prisoners at concentration camps… usually much nastier and devious than regular guards).
He’s pulling out of Misrata… other tribes (civilians) are left in charge (no longer the Libyan army)... and thus the imperial west is continuing its attacks… on CIVLIANS (tribes)?
How does that square with UN 1973? (to protect civilians, remember?)
But it fits quite well in this upside down world framework… recall that the UN was created to prevent and avoid unilateral wars of aggression (a war crime) when, in fact, here and elsewhere it has become exactly the opposite: the facilitator and cover for such crimes.
China abstaining? Pure Sun Tzu (“let the enemy destroy itself”), while the same day making a deal with New Zealand to never use us$ in trade, only Yuans (with line of credit at Chinese central bank).
The US dollar is finished and ameriKa is the same.
The evil empire, the west, is finished.
Economically, financially, strategically, environmentally (Japs nuking US back with GE technology… oh the irony!) (but also fracking, etc…), culturally (lady gaga?), etc…
BTW…
Be aware that… regarding nuke fallout over US:
80% in US will have some kind of cancer within 3 years and 60% of these 80% will die off within 5 to 10. These are big (unreported) numbers! (Europe is gonna be about the same minus 20%, Asia same minus 40%). (South hemisphere will only be about 10% of that number). (source: Australian National University, Helen Caldicott video presentation, no current active link… [scrubbed?])
Anyone still residing in these united states ought to have their head examined.
Travel a little bit, and you will quickly realize what a fourth world, unfree, mean spirited and filled with bigots nation the uSSa has become.
So go ahead, let the morons remain in their soon to be concentration camp (already partial), if you have half a brain, leave.
It’s not as hard as you think and actually it can be an incredible rebirth. Money the problem? What, you think you’re gonna repay your credit in US once having found a good life overseas? You’ll be but a spec in a defaulting nation. Isn’t it your turn to screw the banksters? Let me tell you, it’s orgasmic!
I am faithful to the ideals of the Constitution, but it’s ameriKa which abandoned these ideals, I left with my family in 03 and never regretted it. Great, almost free health care, almost free world class university for the kids, business opportunities aplenty even in a tough world economy, etc, etc… US originated inflation is eroding all of that but it’s still OK for now.
Imagine you live in Germany in 1933 knowing all you know… would you stay? Explain to me how this is different.
You’d really be an idiot to stay in US. Awaiting slaughter… with no health care to boot. What you’re waiting for, in the most docile and helpless fashion, is an agony worthy of a Greek tragedy. You, your kids, your spouse… like Dickens.
You still there?
Your situation is not that much better than in Misrata…
