From Nation of Change:
Jihadists Take Over, As Warned
The official euphoria with which the U.S. and European governments celebrated the fall of the regime of Muammar Gaddafi in Libya has given way to growing concern that many among the new Libyan leadership are radical Muslims with links to al-Qaeda. Revelations are surfacing also of a close collaboration of Western governments with the deposed dictator.

The overwhelming presence of radical Muslims among the rebel Libyan leadership has been known in Paris at least since early March. But the dangers from this are now beginning to be discussed openly in Western capitals.

On Mar. 8, Fran�ois Gouyette, ambassador to Tripoli until late February, told a select group of deputies at a closed session of the French parliamentary commission of foreign affairs that the rebellion, especially in the east of the country, comprised mostly "radical Muslims".

"In the east of the country, especially in the city of Derna, which was taken very easily by the insurrection, there is without question a high concentration of radical Muslims," Gouyette told the deputies. "Hundreds of Libyan combatants taking part in the international jihad in Afghanistan and in Iraq originate from this region.

"Many of these combatants are back in Libya," Gouyette warned. IPS has the minutes of the meeting.
If these mokes ask for and receive foreign aid from the USA, it will be proof-positive that our present administration is clueless. If these were revolutionaries seeking a democratic Republic, where are their founding documents? Where is their Declaration of Independence and their Constitution? Instead, we have 9th century rabble, seeing weakness and expanding their sphere of influence. There are too many parallels to Europe in the 1920-30's to deny that WW-III is brewing. Two questions: #1) - What will be the trigger. #2) - Will the civilized world have the moral courage and conviction to carry this war to victory.
