Changes

The '''Arab Spring''' beginning in 2011 was largely an anti-[[Western civilization]], anti-[[Zionist]] movement orchestrated by the [[Obama administration]] to topple [[secular]] regimes in the [[Arab]] world. As a journalistic euphemism, it was intended to evoke reminiscences of the 1968 [[Prague Spring]], or a peaceful demonstration against [[authoritarian]] rulers to bring about "socialism with a human face."

It was billed as an effort at [[democracy|democratitization]] in the Arab Middle East through [[regime change]], along the lines of President [[George W. Bush]]'s 2003 [[Iraq war]] without using US troops. Ultimately it ended in a bloody and humanitarian disaster and led to the rise of the [[Islamic State]], eleven million dispossessed, in excess of 400,000 dead in [[Syria]], and the [[European migrant crisis]]. A corollary to the plan was to build the image of [[Secretary of State]] [[Hillary Rodham Clinton]] as a great world leader and statesman as Obama's successor.<ref>http://www.unz.com/efingleton/assange-hillary-thought-libya-would-be-her-stepping-stone-to-the-presidency/</ref>

The states of  [[Libya]], [[Yemen]] and others were destabilized. [[Barack Obama]] and [[Hillary Clinton]] actively intervened in Syria and Libya, funnelling money and weapons to known [[Salafi]] [[jihad]]i groups. The powers that be remained in control of secular [[Egypt]]. [[Iran]], with Western acquiescence, remained firmly on the path to becoming a [[nuclear]] power.

The policies of US President [[Barack Hussein Obama]] with regard to the Arab Spring seemed to be in the interest of Muslim [[theocracy]], unlike previous [[President of the United States of America|American Presidents]] who have favored governments which are secular and pro-[[Israel]].  In August 2010, Obama issued Presidential Study Directive 11<ref>[https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2015/jun/3/inside-the-ring-muslim-brotherhood-has-obamas-secr/ Obama secretly backing Muslim Brotherhood]</ref> which directed his advisers to "manage these risks by demonstrating to the people of the Middle East and North Africa the gradual but real prospect of greater political openness and improved governance".  As noted by the Washington Post, just six months later large protests began<ref>[https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2011/03/04/AR2011030404614.html Obama's low-key strategy for the Middle East]</ref> that later turned into a regional outbreak of violence.

Knowing Gaddafi's days were numbered due to advanced age, Jalil and Younis were seeking to preserve the power they emassed, as heads of Gaddafi's law enforcement ministries, by deposing Gaddafi prematurely using rival tribes internally and outside help from a coalition Hillary Clinton put together of jihadis and NATO. Younis, who made many enemies as Gaddafi's top cop, eventually was murdered by Islamists in the TNC.

By March 2, 2011, reports arrive by experts identifying weaponry recovered in Gaddafi's Katiba, Benghazi compound. Most equipment is 1970s-80s [[Soviet]] equipment, still effective and operational. Some equipment designs date back to World War II. Chinese equipment also is found. A ''Wired'' magazine article specifically states, "Most of the weaponry at the Katiba has been removed and handed over to the army," although the Benghazi rebels and TNC had not yet, nor ever were sufficiently organized into an "army." ''Wired'' reported, "everything had to be stripped, scrubbed, and reassembled before testing." Much anti-aircraft equipment was confiscated.

Gaddafi had been a notorious state sponsor of terror for more than three decades prior to 2003, at which point he aquieced and complied with Western wishes, renouncing terrorism, paying [[reparations]] to victims, gave up his WMD, and joined the United States in its global [[war on terror]]. More accurately, the United States joined Gaddafi in his war on the radical Islamic terrorists. As a [[secular]] leader, Gaddafi had been battling the Muslim Brotherhood for decades. The Libyan Islamic Fighting Group was an Islamist group the United Kingdom began supporting in 1995 to overthrow Gaddafi. Many were veterans of the [[Soviet-Afghan jihad]], and fought the United States during the [[Iraq insurgency]] of 2004–11.

During the period of alliance with Gaddafi in the war on terror (2003–2011), Gaddafi used his oil wealth to purchase the most advanced internet communications surveillance and counter-intelligence technology the West had to offer. His prisons, from which the CIA operated a rendition and torture program, were control centers equipped with the most advanced electronic mass surveillance system throughout North Africa and the Middle East. Arrests could be made within hours after reading an email, monitoring a [[Skype]] transmission or [[Youtube]] upload, or listening to a phone conversation. The arrestee would be brought to the prison for interrogation. This system functioned in conjunction with multinational technology giants and intelligence sharing agreements with the US [[intelligence community]].
