Libyan War Is For Water - NOT Oil

submitted by notarobot

1 decade 2 years 6 months 2 weeks ago

This video was originally put together in March, about 6 months before Gadaffi would be killed, "ending" the Libyan Civil War.

From Youtube:

Libya and Egypt sit on a resource more valuable than oil, in that part of the world . . The Nubian Sandstone Aquifer , is a sea of fresh water , that has an invaluable value , on a continet as Africa . Gaddafi used much of the funds generated from oil to build the " Great Man Made River Project " ( GMMRP ) . The 4,000 Km long water pipeline barried underneath the desert . $ 25 Billion has already been invested into this project, and not one penny has came from the IMF or the World Bank. In other words Gaddafi didnt allow his people to fall into debt, from there would be no way out and Guess who didnt like that?

Scientist estimate that there is an equivalant of 200 - 1,000 years of fresh water flowing down the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer . This Pipeline and Aquifer has been owned by the libyan people and not by Veolia , Suez Ondeo or Saur , the French companies who control more than 40% of the worlds water market . Remember Which Country Was The Fastest to Attack Libya? Just Pure Evil and Greed. Thanks
