Libya’s Gaddafi Allies with Zimbabwe’s Mugabe

WARNING: This is Version 1 of my old archive, so Photos will NOT work and many links will NOT work. But you can find articles by searching on the Titles. There is a lot of information in this archive. Use the SEARCH BAR at the top right. Prior to December 2012; I was a pro-Christian type of Conservative. I was unaware of the mass of Jewish lies in history, especially the lies regarding WW2 and Hitler. So in here you will find pro-Jewish and pro-Israel material. I was definitely WRONG about the Boeremag and Janusz Walus. They were for real.

Hundreds of Libyan troops have been sent to Zimbabwe, prompting fears that
they will help dictator Robert Mugabe, crack down on his political
opponents. The militia, part of Col. Gaddafi’s elite forces, who are
known for their terror tactics, are being housed in secret locations
scattered across the country.

According to members of the Movement for Democratic Change (MDC),
Zimbabwe’s main opposition party, the Libyans are assisting Mr Mugabe with
his “security.” Senior officials of the MDC believe that assassination
squads are moving into Harare.

Gaddafi has become one of Mr Mugabe’s most vocal political allies and is
believed to have contributed more than $1 million towards the Zimbabwean
president’s “re-election” campaign. The contribution was part of a $300
million deal between the two countries under which Libya undertook to
supply oil to Zimbabwe. It is thought that the Libyans have also acquired
part of Zimbabwe’s state oil company.

The deal was struck in September when Mugabe visited Tripoli, the Libyan
capital, after a high-profile visit by Gaddafi to Zimbabwe.

Mugabe has been increasingly turning to Libya for support in the run-up to
the elections, expected early next year. He is facing his first serious
electoral threat since Zimbabwe was handed over to Mugabe’s ZANU 21 years
ago.

David Coltart, the shadow justice minister in the MDC, said in a speech in
Harare: “Mugabe is prepared to turn us into a satellite state of Libya.”

Gaddafi visited Zimbabwe in August in a massive 100-vehicle motorcade
packed with female Nubian bodyguards. During his visit, the Libyan
dictator urged Zimbabwe’s Muslims to wage a Jihad against Zimbabwe’s small
white population. The Libyan leader also held secret talks with Pagad, a
secretive Muslim organisation based in Cape Town.

As part of the oil deal, Gaddafi’s regime acquired some 20 Zimbabwean
properties, from mansions in Harare’s northern suburbs to farms. There
were fears that the 58 properties could become bases for the Libyan
militia.

Critics of Mugabe point out that, despite the deal with Libya over the
supply of oil, most of Zimbabwe’s petrol stations are still empty and
there is no end in sight to the two-year fuel shortage.

Meanwhile, Zimbabwe’s passport office has been ordered to produce 10,000
passports, which will be issued to Libyan nationals, according to
officials in the registrar general’s office.

Zimbabwean passports are considered more acceptable than Libyan ones by
many countries. The move means that the Libyan forces may be used not
only to help Mr Mugabe win his presidential election, but also to operate
beyond the country’s borders, says the MDC. (The London Telegraph).
