Libyen och USA

Det ser ut som att NATO/väst vänt sig från det som såg ut som ett försök att uppnå någon sorts diplomatisk lösning för att kunna dra sig ur den pinsamma situation man försatt sig i i Libyen. Nu kastar Storbritannien ut libyska diplomater och bombningarna av Libyen tycks ha intensifierats.

(That is the State Theory of Money. See the UMKC Economics Blog.)
