WHY DON'T THE DEMS CARE ABOUT BLACK SLAVERY IN LIBYA?

The death of George Floyd raised the important issue of police brutality and institutionalized racism, and Democrat politicians eager to highlight the contrast between themselves and the Republicans, especially Trump, in this campaign season, seized the opportunity to take up the BLM banner.

The Democrats had always positioned themselves as defenders of minorities. Minority rights is an important issue and politicians on both sides should be doing this, just as they should be defending the defenceless of all races. Some observers have already pointed out that the real issue here is the rich and powerful vs the poor and middle class, with the income gap growing wildly and with over half of Americans unable to get health care or insurance. I have shown here that US "democracy," which denies people their basic needs, is completely dominated by a list of privileged people and if are a working stiff, you are not on the list.

Given the Democrats’ caring attitude toward minorities, I was shocked to read that Democrat politicians such as Senators Bob Menendez, Tim Kaine and Chris Murphy are demanding that the Trump administration enforce the CAATSA law to punish the Libyan opposition leader Khalifa Haftar for teaming up with Russia to fight the US-recognized Government of National Accord (GNA), although that group is known to cooperate with militias that are not only terrorists but also slave traders!

Would these Democrats support a US leader who works with slave traders in their country? Of course not! But Libya is far away and no one (except readers of a blog like New Silk Strategies) has pointed out to US news consumers the glaring hypocrisy between the GNA’s cooperation with literal 21st Century slave traders and the Democrats’ insistence on punishing the Russians for helping to overcome this scourge by supporting Haftar. But the fact is, the Democrats are clearly only interested in “human rights” and “minority rights” when the affected groups are US voters. It’s absolutely disgusting. Of course, knowledgeable Americans – an unsung few – know that Russia has been fighting against terror in Syria since 2015 and has been beaten up in the media for supporting the supposedly “thuggish” Assad, even though the evidence against Assad is inconclusive at best but essentially non-existent and never explained by those who malign him. It is clear to thinking people that the US Establishment is firmly on the side of terror in the Middle East. In fact, we showed in minute detail that it was the US and its satellites in Europe who created ISIS in the first place.

An article in Time from 2019 shows that the Government of National Accord (GNA) is teaming up with Turkish-backed armed terrorist militias that empower it.

I had written an article showing that the US-recognized GNA has admitted to using ISIS and Al-Qaeda militias imported by Turkey from Syria to fight their opponent Khalifa Haftar. So why does the US recognize this inhumane government?

The Time article reports:

“When Joy, a 23-year-old Cameroonian university student, arrived in the coastal Libyan city of Sabratha in August 2017, she thought she was well on her way to France to pursue her dream of becoming a fashion model. But a government-backed militia, emboldened by the E.U. deal to crack down on migrant smuggling hubs, raided the compound where she was staying. She was picked up by a rival group and locked in a room with scores of other women for several months. The women were expected to work as prostitutes, and some were sold to buyers looking to staff their own brothels. Joy, several months pregnant at that time, was largely left alone, she says, but the conditions were “inhumane.”

“Joy, who speaks the polished French of an educated woman, says the E.U. directive to curb migrant arrivals not only emboldens corrupt Libyans but also amplifies their deep-seated prejudice against black Africans. ‘The Libyans understood that if the E.U. doesn’t want blacks to come, it means we are not valuable as humans,’ she tells TIME, cradling her newborn, in a shelter for trafficked women in Lagos, Nigeria. “The E.U. is essentially rewarding these militias for abusing us, for raping us, for killing us and for selling us.’ “

If you are outraged that the people who claim to care for US blacks have taken sides in Libya with a government that cooperates with slave traders, you can write to them via the Democrat web site:

https://democrats.org/contact-us/

Fill out the contact form and tell Democrat candidates to stop supporting the GNA in Libya, whose militias capture and enslave black immigrants.

This is not intended as an endorsement to Trump, who has not stood up against racism in the US in the wake of the Floyd George murder. But on the other hand, nor has he tried to intervene on behalf of the terrorists and slave traders in Libya.

Conclusion: Both political parties care about votes but neither one seems to genuinely care about human rights.

The sole purpose of "the democrats" in America, is to break the common bond that once existed, holding us a "coherent People, with a common heritage and culture, and Balkanize" the country out of any possibility of standing as "a Nation", on constitutional principle, with the "rule of law, the U.S. Constitution" over government, and a government under the rule of The Citizens and their respective Sovereign States.
It has been completely subverted by communism, since a century ago, and exists for the purpose of separating our ethnicities into fighting, hate-filled antagonists, ensuring we can never come together in common bond, and establish law over the government, end its corruption, and live according to our Constitution.
It was "republican standards" which broke slavery, and enforced equality of persons, via the 14th amendment, but it was also "crony corporate republicans" who oversaw the "reconstruction of the south", ensuring hatred for "republicanism" as reflex, ever since the actual "occupation of the south", by the same crony corporatists who controlled our central banks, Wall Street, and initiated the war to force the south to run its trade through Wall Street, and make them part of "the central banking system".
Tyranny, hard or soft, is not arrived at by general consensus, but by ever increasing imposition by government, without regard for "party", both parties equally intent to rule, not govern.
Race, equality, law, principle, have never been a part of government or parties, but only belong to people, with real, hard, established values. I cleave to neither party, but to Libertarian principle, which is all that remains of principled political consideration, I hold certain persons responsible for the state of Libya, and they happen to belong to the democrat wing of the government party, however, there are none but one, on the opposing side, Rand Paul, who stand on the premise, "we broke it, we are responsible for fixing it".
Lincoln lay claim to be "willing to do anything to save the republic, if ending slavery would work, he intended, if keeping it was the answer, that would remain, his only intent was to save the republic", however "the Republic" was "these Sovereign States in voluntary Union", not a Sovereign Nation, bound together by military force, the "voluntary union" was in fact, the seceding states, the northern states were determined to compel union, and remain in the same mind-set today.
The world has joined together on a singular issue that was developed by George Soros, the forming of blocks of violent protesters, using names such as "antifa" and "BLM", when the facts demonstrate they are assembled to do violence, to force government crack down on dissent, and make the dissent about petty issues, ginned up for masses, but with the real issue, the government debt, financing the banks out of default, ruled by those such as Bill Gates, intent on "vaccinating the world" to death, literally, and there has been a deliberate tone to the violent lock down of the world, over what has turned out to be as was stated at the start, a bad flu season.
The Nations of the world have been enticed to follow the U.S. lead into debt based economics, and while we are substantially the most debt braced country, we aren't alone, and it is hoped by the banking families, our debt is sufficient to collapse us, and allow the control of the country fall completely in the hands of our oligarchs, with hopefully, most of the world tied into our own debt and problems.
Both Russia, with time, planning, and abundant resources, have substantially backed their economy with gold, as has China, to a smaller extent, but being a far larger economy, similarly secured, and the SCO, BRICS, and other co-ops have proven to be the means by which many dozens of nations have secured their economies as much as possible, at this time. The U.S. focus on Libya was entirely because Ghadafi was fixed, intent on gold currency, and a major stumbling block to the U.S. entry into the economics of North Africa. Everything the U.S. government does is about money and power. It has none of the former, and needs all the latter, to continue to operate as if it is solvent, able to be "productive", even as every effort is made to end production here, except that done by machine, and unskilled labor. The effort is to use the bully power of "the U.S. hegemonic machine" to gain power over the world, without regard to the American people, except to roll over us, if and when we get in the way. The means of control of the world were established and chosen a century ago, the technological advances arrived as expected, and the physical efforts have worked well, the only difficulty is the "few cultures we've not been able to insert ourselves, and undermine", the hope being there is sufficient power to overcome them militarily, in the end.
I don't believe they ever expected it to take this long, and for the level o

Will the full story of the civil war in failed-state Libya ever be known in all of its unimaginable brutality and unfathomable inhumanity?

The same axis of evil that initiated that horrific crime: Obama, Biden & Clinton, are still holding the reins of power in the Democrapshit Party. So there should be no surprise in what they propose.

There is no meaningful choice for voters of conscience in the upcoming election. To vote for either war criminal nominee constitutes an endorsement of their shared depravity.
