Obama Puts American Boots on the Ground in Libya
October 15, 2011 • 10:01AM
Barack Obama yesterday jumped at the chance to expand his foreign military adventures, by sending an initial 14 contractors with military backgrounds to Libya to search for shoulder-fired missiles that were not secured after Qaddafi was overthrown by NATO. The move could well play into plans for a British-sponsored coup by Obama into the United States.
Andrew J. Shapiro, Assistant Secretary of State for Political-Military Affairs, said yesterday that the State Department will soon increase the number of former military personnel, now acting as contractors, to 50. While the number of missiles is not known, Shapiro asserted that thousands of shoulder-launched missiles have gone missing in Libya, and that the missiles "could pose a threat to civil aviation," although he admitted there have no attacks with loose missiles yet.
Thousands of Libyan hand-held missiles were reported to be destroyed by the NATO air campaign during its six-month operation to overthrow Muammar Qaddafi. However, the U.S.A and other NATO sources are saying that the weapon sites were not secured and guarded after the Qaddafi overthrow, and that an unknown number were taken by Libyan rebel groups who flocked to the unguarded storage areas after Qaddafi was defeated.
The seizure of these missiles should have been foreseen since the same thing happened in Iraq after Saddam Hussein was overthrown. Their proliferation has become a godsend for Obama, and his British backers for three reasons: 1) the unresolved issue provides a pretext for NATO to maintain its war mobilization in Libya, and gives Obama a foot in the door to maintain, and increase the number of U.S. military contractors on the ground; 2) it gives the Obama Administration credence when it tells the eight countries in the neighborhood of Libya, as it did last Summer while the military campaign against Qaddafi was still being waged, that they must cooperate with the United States and NATO in the war on terror; and 3) although the missiles are old and no longer are a threat to military aircraft, Shapiro pointed out that civilian aircraft are vulnerable—an implied threat against the U.S. civilian fleet—which gives Obama a pretext to maintain a military alert status supporting his drive for a coup in the United States.
