Libya to Get French Missiles
Those cheese eating surrender monkeys are at it again. Nicolas Sarkozy sits down with Gadhafi and contracts get signed for missiles, surveillance equipment and a nuclear plant. At least I think so:
A spokesman for French President Nicolas Sarkozy would not confirm the deal but said there appeared to be one.
That one must have lost something in translation.
The deal comes hard on the heels of the release of 6 Bulgarian medics who had been under sentence of death for infecting children with the HIV virus. Part of the package is Bulgaria’s cancellation of Libya’s $57 million debt.
So it’s pretty much a win-win all round unless you are the planned target of those missiles or the surveillance technology. And you might think twice about doing humanitarian work in Libya given Gadhafi’s approach to trade negotiations and to getting his debts canceled.

A Libyan official said Thursday that Moammar Gadhafi’s long-isolated country has signed contracts worth $405 million with French companies for missiles and communications equipment.
A spokesman for French President Nicolas Sarkozy would not confirm the deal but said there appeared to be one. French officials denied that any deal to sell military equipment was in exchange for Libya’s releasing six imprisoned medics last month.
The first contract, worth $230 million, is for Milan missiles, and the second, totaling $175 million, is for advanced Tetra communications and surveillance equipment for the police, said the Libyan official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the press. He did not reveal the names of the French companies.
The official said the deal is important because it is the first of its kind that Libya has signed with a Western country since sanctions were imposed in the early 1990s.

aaah good. thats clear then . AIDS is a man-made , genetically modified disease being spread throughout the 3rd world (and the ‘undesirables’ back home) by western ‘medical aid agencies’.
but we all knew that didn’t we? i mean , this is not the first time they were caught in the act , is it?
obviously the idea was inspired by british ‘royal lodge’ freemasons but the donkey-work is of course done by the pharmaceutical corporations they own.
does anyone know which corporation manufactured the ‘medicine’ that infected these 400 Libyan children with AIDS?
Actually it’s caused by HIV, which is SIV evolved.
I can’t help but think this is a good thing; no one likes Gadhafi, eventually there will be an uprising, and the new government will be in a much better position if it has missiles. Same things goes for the rest of the middle east.
A country under threath of aggression maintains a State in the hands of hawks and bellicose.
Bullshit. “Genetically modified disease.” Right.
They weren’t “caught in the act”. They were being held hostage so Libya use them as leverage to get concessions from Europe – such as missiles and electronics. Get the picture? They were bargaining chips, and Khaddafi used them well.
Jesus Christ. It was a tainted lot of transfusion blood. Way to jump to conclusions.
Your logic is perfectly opaque.
your pants are too tight
so does anyone know which corporation manufactured the ‘blood product’ ?
ergo – which corp. deliberately contaminated these people with the geneticaly engineered monkey virus now known as HIV AIDS.
Transfusion Blood isn’t a blood product, it’s just blood taken from donators, sloppy procedures could easily lead to contaminated blood, no need for intervention from evil big pharma.
“Transfusion Blood isn’t a blood product” – tee hee.you’re silly.
“it’s just blood taken from donators” – by who ? from where ? supplied by who ?
ie …WHAT CORPORATE LABEL WAS ON THE BAG ‘O BLOOD ? GEDDIT.?
Its a simple question.the blood was supplied by a corporation – for profit – people dont just stroll in off the street and poor blood into bottle at random.
the blood product was sold by a corporation to the ‘charity front’ (mi6 , cia , stazi whoever…) thats how the medical industry works.
so DOES ANYONE KNOW.?
Blood doesn’t have a long enough shelf life to be commoditized. You can’t buy blood from a corporation. It usually is sourced directly from a blood bank, can’t be transported far, and goes bad within a few days even with refrigeration. Often, the hospital itself maintains its own transfusion bank. The hospital I worked at did.
Right down the street from where I sit is a blood bank where all the homeless dudes go. Twenty bucks a pint, so I understand. So, uh, yeah, people do just stroll in off the street and donate blood. And some of them may be latent HIV carriers. Usually the presence of the virus is detected by lab testing, but sometimes, if procedures are tight enough.
Probably by Libyans, from Libyans, supplied by the local blood bank, with no corporate label on it.
“he blood product was sold by a corporation to the ‘charity front’ (mi6 , cia , stazi whoever…) thats how the medical industry works.”
What a simplistic world view you have
“Probably by Libyans, from Libyans, supplied by the local blood bank, with no corporate label on it.”
so a bunch of libyans who dont have aids suplied the blood which was contaminated with … er aids.
people dont just stroll in off the street and give blood – IN LIBYA.
at least , they didn’t when i was there.
sometimes it is taken from prisoners but aids was never a problem in libya – until it was deliberately introduced there of course.
No blood drives in the Islamic socialist republic, I find that hard to believe, and no AIDs I find that harder, once the genie is out of the bottle and all that…
How do you know they don’t have AIDS? There are localized AIDS epidemics in Libya. There are 460,000 people with AIDS in Northern Africa and the Middle East; are you honestly prepared to tell me that none of them are in Libya?
Oh, well that clears it up! Third world prisons don’t have AIDS problems! Perish the thought.
And yeah, AIDS exists in Libya. According to UNDP, “Existing data and statistics vary but the latest figures indicate that there are approximately between 2,000 – 7,000 cases of HIV in Libya.” All it takes is a few donors with AIDS to contaminate the blood supply – especially when said donor may have no clue that s/he has AIDS, what it is, how to prevent it, and would never dream of admitting that they had it even if they were aware of it.
One should probably add, Libya starts work on new $1.3-billion airport – with hefty French involvement, of course.
fuk , this is like trying to swim through horse-shit.
“Existing data and statistics vary but the latest figures indicate …” and who could argue with such accuracy.Its not as if they just made the figures up.They extrapolated them. its the same thing but extrapolate sounds much more scientific and believable than estimate or guess.
“What a simplistic world view you have” sorry but 1 + 1 =2.no matter how many formulas ar clever word play people use to convince me that this is not so , i stubournly continue to believe 1 + 1 = 2.
ok.lets try and keep it simple.
1) which organisation did the people in white coats who collected the blood work for.
2) which organisation supplied the equipment (syringes , tubes , needles , blood bags etc .. etc ..) to collect , store , deliver and administer the blood.
3) where was the blood collected from.ie. who were the donors.
4) why were the donors not screened for aids.
5) if there was no screening , why are there no other diseases showing up in the contaminated blood.why only AIDS.
6) who funded this operation?
7) if Libya has its own blood donors why does it need these foreigners with their contaminated blood products.
i could go on but whats the point.
“he blood product was sold by a corporation to the ‘charity front’ (mi6 , cia , stazi whoever…) thats how the medical industry works.”
How does this equate to 1 + 1 = 2?
“he blood product was sold by a corporation to the ‘charity front’ (mi6 , cia , stazi whoever…) thats how the medical industry works.”
you’re right.a massive over-simplification.true.
ok-phrma dont like curing disease – they like treating symptoms.its more profitable.without disease they are broke.
the pharmaceutical corporations and the charities are BIG business.they dont do things ‘for the good of humanity’ they do things for BIG money.no profit ? tough luck – no medicine.
the pharma corp didnt give the blood to the charity – they sold it to them.they are a business – thats how they work.
ask yourself this – after AIDS has been deliberately spread throughout north Africa – cui bono (who gains.)?
also , if AIDS originates in Africa , how come they only get it when we ‘accidentaly’ introduce it to their country.
shouldin’t the direction of transmision be the other way round.shouldn’t Africa be riddled with AIDS and only a few cases appearing in the west ? why is the reverse true.
don’t bother to quote numbers at me , i have been to Africa , mainly the northern half.my dad was building medical labs for various countries out there , including the Libyan government.There were NO cases of AIDS in libya then.not one.nada.zero.
AIDS in Libya came from the west.
1+1=2
so i am guessing nobody has any of the real facts and none of the answers to my questions.seems our ‘media’ has been somewhat reticent about the facts.
funny how everyone has such strong opinions without actualy knowing either the country , the people or the relevant facts.i wonder where those strong opinions come from.
i wonder why those strong opinions so perfectly match those spewed out by the Media Plc LLC.
must be one of those coincidence things.or maybe i am just a conspiracy theory.
“shouldin’t the direction of transmision be the other way round.shouldn’t Africa be riddled with AIDS and only a few cases appearing in the west ? why is the reverse true.”
Cite please
My Brother Spent over a year working in a hospital in West Africa and they were riddled with Aids, among other things there.
Why are you assuming that the Blood was sold? Why are you so against the idea of bad practice being the cause here, it’s not so strange, there was a big problem in Ireland a while back with hemophiliacs who were infected with Hep-C due to infected blood, and I’m just guessing but the lab conditions in Ireland are at least on a par if not better than in Libya. Accidents happen especially when there are poor procedures, no plot by nasty corporations/agencies necessary.
People with anticipated higher than the norm lifetime medical costs/earnings ratios die in disproportionately higher numbers throughout western medicine.
That’s the true nature of the capitalist medical and insurance industry.
