Video And Text: Second Colonization Of Africa Underway NATO’s operation in Libya is a perfectly planned political spectacle which marks the beginning of the second colonization of Africa, declared former Belgian Parliament deputy speaker Lode Vanoost.
“The US and the European Union have very good professional analysts,” he said. “They are not going to say it out loud, but they know perfectly well that there is not going to be a smooth and peaceful transition. That’s what they are counting on. That will give them a perfect excuse to intervene militarily on the ground.”
NATO will not pull out by the end of its mandate in September, he predicted.
“I don’t like big words, but what I see is the beginning of the second colonization of Africa,” Vanoost added.

Of course, Nigeria supports NATO, because it is drug trafiking gateway to Europe. Where do you think these Western Sahara AlQ affiliate get their money from?
Mbeki slams West’s gunboat diplomacy against Gaddafi
Former president Thabo Mbeki has joined more than 140 other prominent Africans in condemning the gunboat diplomacy aimed at overthrowing Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.
In an open letter, Mbeki and other signatories have sharply criticised “the misuse of the UN Security Council to engage in militarised diplomacy to effect regime change in Libya”.
Some of the “Concerned Africans” who have signed the letter are to brief the press in Joburg today. The full text of the letter and list of signatories will be released at the briefing.
The signatories include former cabinet ministers Essop Pahad and Ronnie Kasrils, former Anglican Archbishop of Cape Town Njongonkulu Ndungane, author and poet Wally Serote, and foreign policy analysts Chris Landsberg and Siphamandla Zondi, and Mahmood Mamdani, of Makerere University in Uganda and the University of Columbia, New York.
Other issues to be addressed in their open letter include:
l The UN Security Council’s rejection of political solutions to conflict.
l The need to allow the Libyans to decide their own fate and rulers without outside interference.
l The marginalisation of the African Union.
l The threat of the recolonisation of Africa, especially its resource-rich countries.
Meanwhile, it appeared that South Africa and the African Union had been sidelined from diplomatic efforts in the aftermath of the collapse of Gaddafi’s government. The International Contact Group, which has been conducting military operations in support of the Transitional National Council (TNC) rebels fighting Gaddafi, is planning to meet in Istanbul tomorrow to discuss how to manage a post-Gaddafi Libya.
But the group has no plans to include the AU, according to International Contact Group official sources.
African leaders are to meet at AU headquarters in Addis Ababa to discuss Libya tomorrow and on Friday. But officials indicated that the main issue there would be whether or not to recognise the TNC government, rather than any role the AU could still play in stabilising Libya after the civil war which now seems all but over.
On Monday International Relations Minister Maite Nkoana-Mashabane suggested that South Africa would withhold recognition of the TNC until an inclusive transitional government was in place.
However Nigeria threw down a challenge to Africa yesterday by immediately recognising the TNC.
Zuma yesterday repeated his criticism of Nato for “misinterpreting” UN Security Council Resolution 1973 – which South Africa supported – to try to oust Gaddafi rather than just protect civilians.
He also said that Nato had caused unnecessary bloodshed by continuing to drop bombs on Libya after the AU had asked it to stop to allow the AU Roadmap to take effect. He insisted that the road map, which he failed to persuade either side to adopt, “still has room in the situation right now”.
“It’s not too little, too late” he told journalists after meeting Ghana’s John Atta Mills in Cape Town.

No, Nigeria supported the vile colonial smash, kill and grab in Libya because is run by brainwashed jackasses, who are not only incredibly ignorant but also amazingly arrogant in their stupidity.
Can you imagine if Nigeria bombed Greece what would happen. The whole white world under the umbrella of NATO would rush in to defend Greece. Now you have the whole white enterprise of Europe--including Russia now--bombing and killing in Africa and the craven jackasses are saying its OK. A smart African government would say it's not OK--even if its OK.
It's just pathetic that a country with so many people is run by so many fools.
Or maybe it's that the jackasses that run Nigeria are so corrupt and so much in love with the slave state America that they need to keep fawning before that nation so that they can continue to get visas to fly in to park their stolen money and proceeds from their criminality.
The only good thing that came ou of Nigeria in many, many years is the Boko Haram bombing of one of the hegemonic pink monster's key institutions, the U.N.

And those 200 African "intellectuals" instead of writing petitions should appeal to their governments to start sending fighting men to Libya. The first place of attack should be East Libya and Benghazi. All it would take is 5,000 serious fighting men to send the NATO mercenaries scrambling into the desert.
They never won a single battle. NATO bombed and bombed in the open desert or then used helicopter gunships to clear the way of any opposition. Then NATO calls in the press and the Benghazi mercenaries flying their feudal slavery flag to pose for the cameras.
When NATO penetrated Tripoli and saw that there was nobody there to welcome them with flowers, the lying white press just posted a fake crowd from India--as if no one would find out. Pathetic.
In the meantime that simian Ban ki-Moon is keeping his mouth shut about the detainment and murders of Africans in Libya.
