When Libya commenced the eruption which ended Gaddafi’s rule in that nation, some nations did more than others to help defeat the Libyans with their heavy weaponry, sophisticated radar and fast jets. Britain and France piled in, bombing targets of opportunity, and America helped with massive logistics support. But America, or rather one small, secretive part of America, did a little bit more than hump bombs and bullets for their Allies to drop or fire at the Libyan Armed Forces.
Seems as though the CIA sent around eighty Stinger missiles to Qatar, their long-time and trusted ally in the Gulf, for onwards transmission to the Libyan rebels who were having a hard time fighting against the fast jets of the Libyan AirForce. The CIA, well-known of course for trusting the wrong people in that truly duplicitous region, forgot that the Qataris are first and foremost proponents of the Wahabbi Sect of Muslim Islam, hard-liners of the first order.
So where did fifty of the CIA-supplied Stinger missiles end up?

It was mentioned the other day that foreign policy often seems to be a weak point in American administrations. This is curious in a nation which leads the world in research and development in so many other areas of endeavour.
Perhaps it is a weakness of our democratic system which means that each successive administration has to “re-learn” the characteristics of the people they have to deal with? Or is it part of that assumption that the rest of the world thinks the same way as they do, hence the desire to bring democracy to the world?
I offer this not as a criticism, rather an observation.
One day soon I hope, the world will find an alternative to gas & oil, and Qatar etc will sink back into the dried-up sand pit from whence they crawled.
I was about to look up verified alternative energy sources, and found this..

I started to read and one thought leapt out at me…..

Agit – if you want to know about suppression of alternative energy, here it is. Remember, you were told that it doesn’t exist, and you believe what you’re told:
If they had meetings about it at MIT, and if companies are racing to create prototypes, then it’s not being very well suppressed now.
No Phantom – because others pursued the fundamental science beyond the level of deniability. But try and get a patent which relates to the technology and the US Patent Office rejects the application outright – no protected Intellectual Property, and that’s one way to suppress the technology of cold fusion.
Then open source and crowd fund it.
That’s exactly what’s happening. Here is one of the principal inventors/discoverers describing the history and science behind cold fusion:
Now who believes that cold fusion doesn’t exist and hasn’t been suppressed?
The US isn’t the only country in the world. Patent it in Japan and Europe and reap the rewards.
From 5.30 – why cold fusion is suppressed (hint – it involves money, energy corporates and banks). An example of how science, especially physics, has been perverted for decades ever since Tesla was swindled by JP Morgan:
I don’t have a comment on the missiles (at least not one you would want to hear) but two B2 Stealth Bombers just landed in England 🙂

as for alternative fuels… Why bother we have all the oil WE need.
Unless there are export restrictions, a lot of the US oil and especially gas will be exported to Europe and India etc as prices are higher there.
Americans do not necessarily own a right to buy that US production at all, not in a world of free trade.
it would be one of the biggest boons our nation has seen in 100yrs creating jobs and wealth. Plus the Europeans benefit by having us as their suppliers rather than the supporters of jihad.
I call that a win win
Your water supplies are being destroyed by the operations to get hydrocarbons. In fact, ground water is so heavily contaminated that it burns.
