@joebenson528
@joebenson528 Год назад
@@hristinatrajkovskatrajkovs74 It wasn't the people that didn't like him. It was the extremists that fought the coup supported by NATO. Gaddafi wanted a African Union that would protect the Arab world (especially North Africa) from NATO imperialism. He also wanted to establish a gold dinar which would bolster the African economy and consequently tank the US Petrol Dollar and EU economy. He pioneered the largest man made river in the world, to bring fresh water to Africans throughout Libya, Chad and Tunisia. This would make them less reliant on Western aid. He also wanted to work with RU and China to modernize Libyan infrastructure which would render Western corporations useless, considering they cost more than their RU and Chinese counterparts and are a lot less efficient. No wonder NATO led yet another illegal coup in a sovereign nation (Afghanistan, Iraq and the -Arab- NATO Spring of 2011 etc)

I was at Herculaneum for a good 5 hours, and the last 2 hours before closing I didn't see another soul (except for some hungry cats). Extremely quiet and eerie. You just stand there in awe and silence, imagining what the chaos and panic must've looked like back when Vesuvius erupted. Indeed a one-of-kind experience!

Hi Nick, greetings from India. I have a suggestion, whenever you are visiting politically and economically volatile countries such as Libya, I think you should also conduct some off-camera or off-the-record interviews. Being completely off-the-record might make the people speak their mind which is otherwise they would like to suppress when they are on camera. Then you yourself can share them with us without naming them, just the way you talked about the incident at the end of this video. Hence, we will be able to tally the responses, if both off the record and on camera responses are similar, it is what it is, if they are different in theme, then there is scope for critical analysis of the responses.

Nick, I must say sincerely, that considering the situation there, you are doing a remarkable job under the circumstances. As you stated, this is a country that sincerely appears to want to both succeed and thrive. Though guarded at times, and rightfully so, the Libyans are a people that you can palpablely feel, want to both move on, grow as a society, and flourish. What I see in your videos are a people that hesitantly but positively have hope for a good future. And I for one, as a US citizen who remembers the tension of the 80's vividly, I absolutely *want* them to succeed and wish the Libyans the best of luck!!!

Thank you for your kind words, Richard. As a Libyan who is young enough not to have the 80s geopolitics in mind, I wish our people, Libyans and Americans, to be unified and fulfilled in their destiny. Our struggle is due to our fight for a republic, that is something, defining, that we have in common. Cheers from Tripoli.
