Leave it to the British to create a mess
Eight SAS troops and a diplomat were caught inside the Eastern rebel territory. They were on a “mission” to meet with the “rebel leaders”, who didn’t seem to know they were coming. This has inflamed the “anti-colonialist” feelings that run much deeper than the anger about the stupidity and corruption of the Gadaffi regime.
Well done, Brits.
My guess is the diplomat was there to make a deal – we’ll announce that we recognize the Provisional Government of Libya in Benghazi in exchange for that “government” signing a 99 year Oil and Gas development agreement for the Eastern Libya oil and gas fields and turning control of the Libyan Oil Company to B.P.
See Anglo Persian Oil Company (aka BP) and its role in overthrowing the government of Iran in 1953 and installing the Shah of Iran (with help form the U.S. Government)
Yes, becasue the Americans have never done anything stupid like check grenades into a building with hostages in and kill them. Piss off ripping it out of the UK you pathetic twats, this issue is more important than national pride, get a grip on the real story.
Are you planning a big celebration on British Evacuation Day?
