Emails Prove Hillary Knew Libyan Rebels Were Conducting Ethnic Cleansing, Supported Them Anyway

Submitted by Dan Wright via TheAntiMedia.org,

On New Year’s Eve, the State Department released 3,000 new Hillary Clinton emails from her tenure as secretary of state. While much of the corporate media dove into investigating pointless gossip, Brad Hoff at the Levant Report decided to look for more clues into understanding the epic failure that was the 2011 war on Libya by the US and NATO.

What Hoff discovered in the emails was Secretary Clinton being briefed by a trusted advisor, Sidney Blumenthal, on events in Libya where Clinton’s public statements appear to contradict her private understanding. The issues range from the early presence of special forces and al Qaida-linked militants on the ground to the material motivations of France (gold, oil). And, of course, more evidence that Clinton knew the claims about Qaddafi issuing Viagra to troops for rapes were bogus.

But, perhaps, the most troubling revelation is that Secretary Clinton was being explicitly told that the Libyan rebel forces were conducting racially charged massacres of black Africans under the rationale of labeling them “foreign mercenaries.”

In an email on March 27, 2011 [PDF], Blumenthal informs Secretary Clinton that a Libyan rebel commander told him that “his troops continue to summarily execute all foreign mercenaries captured in the fighting.”

Summarily execute is a nice way of saying they are straight up killing anyone they see, who they think could be a “foreign mercenary.”

So, you ask, how are the rebels determining who are (and are not) foreign mercenaries based merely on sight?

The answer is based on the color of their skin. But the killings were not just cases of mistaken identity, they were part of a racial grudge connected to perceived favoritism by the Gaddafi government.

As the BBC reported in 2011, the war for the rebels extended to black Libyan civilians and sub-Saharan contract workers. The town of Tawergha, whose residents were descendants of black slaves, was “cleansed” by the rebels. The 30,000 people who lived in Tawergha were forced to flee, many unable to outrun the rebels and subjected to beatings, rape, and those summary executions Blumenthal mentioned.

A 2011 report from Human Rights Watch accuses rebels of terrorizing the people of Tawergha. After setting their homes on fire, the rebels captured the black Libyans and subjected them to torture and severe beatings, sometimes leading to death.”

The ethnic cleansing campaign by the rebels continued throughout 2011 and into 2012, when The Telegraph reported black migrant workers, along with black Libyans, were imprisoned, abused, and labeled foreign mercenaries.

In a video published by The Telegraph, a black African is ordered by a rebel to eat the former Libyan flag while in a cage.

The tragic irony of all this is that Hillary Clinton led the charge for a war in Libya based on a claim of a potential massacre in Benghazi. The massacre in Benghazi never occurred (and was likely overblown), but real ethnic cleansing and massacres did occur when the US and NATO empowered the Libyan rebels to overthrow Gaddafi and use their weapons beyond the war zone.

Today, Libya is a failed state infested with the Islamic State and other Islamic terrorist groups thanks to Clinton and friends. Quite a liberation.

Always love your comments, smart mind, facts and figures, lakecity, but I cannot vote for the Tramp. On this, we must agree to disagree.  Civil in our own difference on this occasion.

I will never vote for anyone who puts Israel above the Constitution. Tramp does.

Amen.

Actually I'm still not convinced that Hillary isn't paying Trump to play the false choice. There may be a few people who vote for him in the end, but this country is far too indoctrinated into staid, proven authoritarianism to pick him over her. It may as well be one of the Kardashians running. Sure, Kim would get some votes, but come on we all know who the "serious" candidate is.

Upsets me  to think that the children of Tisquantum and mine will die on our feet for the Constitutional Republic which most hate, but we love it; people of every color, creed and religion. Tis us, the world.

Trade on.

Career politicians and insolvent banks use us, hate us. They will miss us when we are gone.

End the Fed.

Don't be silly. He serves Israel first, that foreign country, and the Rothschild led City of London which holds his debt, like a loan shark, telling its mark what to do.

The fact that we need "proof" of this , or that the mere possession of proof can even mean anything at this point, is one of the indicators that we're beyond fucked.

Any student of current events knew clearly what was planned for Syria/Lybia back in late 2010, because that's when the full-throated regime-change propaganda started.

But few dare name it: the Wolfowitz Doctrine, the Project for a New American Century; nazionism; the Yinon Plan, the Balfour Declaration, betrayed by zionists.

Sympathy for the devil. Don't do it, however entertaining it may be:

'I'm a man of wealth and taste.'

End the Fed.

'Hope you guess my name. What's puzzling you is the nature of my game. Pleased to meet you...'.

Nazionism. 'You all learned politics...'.

End the Fed before it ends you. Come home to the Constitution for you and me. Not that I give a damn about politics, munchkins. You are busted, and want my children to be so too.

NO.

'Was around when Jesus Christ...and St Petersburg...killed the Czar...'.

Try to understand what this is: Talmudist hate and its failed hateful Babylonian money majick vs the world.

No surrender.

But what do you with Clinton

If you shoot her there's suffering, and she deserves lots of suffering

You could lock her up, but probably won't be alive much longer anyway.

I think the worst thing, as she gets older, take away her Meds, and make sure she lives as long as possible. It's not Enduring Freedom, it's Enduring Pain.

Jail that bitch, send her to The Hague, and her Hill Billy, and the Bush tribe, and every ZATO 'leader'. They are killing the world , all for resources, and that fucking useless genocidal, Balfour Declaration betrayer, Israhell.

The Middle East twixt zionist and islamist batshit crazies will always hate each other.

I expect my West to be good, and true to the Magna Carta in the UK and the Constitution in the USA. This is not a request.

Jail 'em. Don't bail 'em.

Stupid person.

This has nothing to do with women, children, men. It has everything to do with nazionist majick money filth, the 0.01%, and their debt slaves in .gov mostly. The war profiteers.

Idiot, stupid boy. You have the fucking cheek to picture yourself as a military man. Filth. You aren't. You probably sit fat and soft in D.C., London,  Tel Aviv or your mother's basement.
