- Today in military history, 1970,

the U.S. Senate repeals the Tonkin Gulf Resolution.

The Senate passed the Tonkin Gulf Resolution back in 1964

after an alleged attack on U.S. Navy destroyers

by North Vietnamese torpedo boats.

The resolution gave President Johnson and later Nixon

the authority to strike back in Southeast Asia

against communist aggression,

even without a declaration of war from the Senate.

On June 24, 1970, the Senate voted to repeal the resolution

as part of an amendment to the Foreign Military Sails Act.

However, the Nixon administration continued to fight the war

on the legal grounds that Nixon had

the inherent authority as commander-in-chief,

until the United States withdrew in 1973.

Swirling Two Colored Labrador Tea Fizzy Bath Bombs - Duration: 16:26.

hello everybody this is Ariane Arsenault and today I am making bath bombs!

This one is a homegrown lavender and giant salt crystals bath bomb but the

one I'm going to be demonstrating today will be made out of Labrador Tea which

is a local ingredient. It's a plant that grows here in the Magdalen Islands

everywhere! It's a bush and we pick the leaves and I will use some ground

Labrador tea within the bath bombs. Also these will be scented with eucalyptus

essential oil as well as a little bit of spearmint essential oil. These will be

very refreshing and invigorating to toss in the bathtub, and without having you

waiting any more I will show you the process of how these are being made!

Let's go! The general guidelines when making bath bombs is to use two parts of

baking soda - one part of citric acid. So I'm almost done measuring the baking

soda and my recipe makes about 20 bath bombs. You can make small batches of bath

bombs at home and use smaller quantities and measure by the cup but if you make

them for the purposes of reselling them, always measure your ingredients on a scale

That is the only way to know exactly what went into your formula. Okay

what creates the fizzy reaction in bath bombs is the combination of citric acid

and baking soda so these two ingredients are a mus; you cannot make bath bombs as

far as I know, without these two components. Now this formula is a basic

fizzy bath bomb it will not foam so I am adding some cornstarch into the mix but

if you wanted to make a foaming bath bomb you could substitute the cornstarch

for SLSA which is a mild foaming agent or a surfactant. Now let's get in

there and mix everything up. If you are working with SLSA make sure to wear a

dust mask as it it is not something easy to work with.

It'll make you cough if you don't wear any facial mask. I always do this part

by hand as using a stand mixer would make everything puff up in the air. All

right back on the scale so in this recipe I'm using grapeseed oil as it is

a very light oil. It's moisturizing and it's very easy to remove from the bath

bomb mold. It's not as sticky as others so here we go

there we go and I will also be adding my essential oils and always measuring by

weight. Eucalyptus and a little bit of spearmint to get the fresh scent in

this bath bomb. There we go let's not forget to add the Labrador tea, this has

already been pre measured it doesn't look like it, it's very

lightweight and there's only one gram that goes into this entire recipe!

let's now mix this together I start by hand just so that the dust doesn't get

everywhere and then I will take a mixer and mix it all up and really good

okay now I will split my batch of bath bomb mixture in half because I want to

get a two-tone colored bath bomb. Part will be green and the other part will be

white I am using color bomb dyes from Nurture Soap Supplies. Here they are and

before integrating them into a bath bomb mixture they will need to be "bloomed" and

I'm going to show you just how this is done! It's pretty easy to do, all you need

is a wetting agent like water but in this case I'm going to be using witch

hazel water as this is my wedding agent for my bath bomb formula and I'm going

to use baking soda to bloom the colors. I'm going to measure my witch hazel so

I'm going to use half of the amount that I need for my formula to make my color

so go now I'm going to carefully measure one gram of this yellow, there we go! One

gram and add just a little little smidge of the blue because you don't need a lot

of blue to turn that yellow to green! Mix with a mini mixer. I'm just going to mix

it all up, mix it very well and I'm going to test the color!

On a little piece of fabric and if I wanted greener I could add some more

blue. Now it's time to add the baking soda, carefully adding some baking

soda, there we go, and just going to mix it up. You can see

that the side of the cup is a nice green. I will go ahead and split my batch and

add the color and the wetting agent and start whipping it all up, simply using a

hand mixer I'm going to whip and beat the mixture as much as I can to combine

the dry ingredients with the oils and essential oils before adding my wetting

agent. Okay, so now it's time to add the colorant I will go ahead and add the

green while whipping and then I will add the remaining witch hazel that is right

here into this part. Here let's go

Everything starts to fizz so you need to do this quickly

I always like to go back in with my hands wipe around the bowl just so that

no moisture is left on the sides and go back to the bottom, turn everything up

and make sure that everything is well combined. I will do this for both

mixtures and then I will start molding them.

Depending on the climate you live in, you may need more or less wetting agent to

make your bath bombs. You need to test the consistency by pressing them in your

hand and kind of wiggling it around is the way to know if your bath bombs

are ready. This one looks nice if it holds its shape without breaking this means

it's ready. It needs to feel like wet sand and I think this is good! All right

let's start molding! I am using these stainless steel bath bomb molds they are

from Xen, I will put a link below. These are by far the best hand moldable bath

bomb molds that I found on the market! I have tried plastic, aluminum, I have tried

many different things and these worked so great.What I do is I take, remember

the giant salt crystals? So I will put a couple of these on top and

then I just add a little bit of green, a little bit of white and I kind of try

and fill both sides of the bath bomb. I put a couple giant crystals inside them.

I will set this aside on my foam right here and I will do the same thing on the

other side except this time I will not be using any embeds on that side.

Making bath bombs is messy and then I take both sides of the bath bomb and I

press the one without the embeds on the one with theembeds. There we go!

Press really nice okay!

and then I just kind of squeeze a little and then lift it up and turn it around

squeeze a little and lift it up voila! Put it on the foam to dry and make

another! So I'm simply going to add the big salt crystals and then put a

little bit of green, a little bit of white, there we go!

and put some salt crystals inside as a little extra bonus! Now I'm going to put

this on the side and do my my other half. It takes a little bit longer to make

these multiple color bath bombs but they are so much fun to look at!

All right try and making all of this very equal so that I have the same amount or

approximately the same amount of white and green and then press firmly and

there we go! Take the spoon, tap right there, right in the center, squeeze,

squeeze and remove! Squeeze, squeeze and remove! And Voilà!

All nice and neat! okay let's try something fun! I did not invent this

technique but I have seen people swirling, yes! Swirling bath bomb mixture

into their bath ball molds! So I'm gonna do one side with the crystal salt embeds

and the other side I'm going to try and swirl it with a chopstick! Let's just

do the one side with the basalt crystals like I did all the other ones

and now on the other side I'm just going to put some green on one side like this,

not too much! And then some white on the other side and then taking a chopstick. I

will just start to swirl it in there and then I'm just going to fill it up with

the bath bomb mixture! Keep alternating between the green and the white, press

together! Yes! This is exciting! Oh tapping with a spoon, squeeze, squeeze

and this is the side with the salt embed and squeeze, squeeze and lift! Look at

that! Isn't that neat a nice little swirl on the bottom of this bath bomb?

Thank you so much for watching this video! I really hope you've enjoyed!

If you did, hit the thumbs up button and if you wish to learn how to make bath bombs

I would highly recommend that you get this book: it's called Make it Fizz. It's

from Holly Port, she is the best in her field for making bath bombs. I've had the

pleasure to meet Holly in 2015 in Indianapolis when I was a speaker for

the Handcrafted Soap and Cosmetic Guild and she was a member of the board at

that time. Her book is great, I will link it in the description box below.

Now thanks for watching this swirly fizzy bath bomb video and just before I

let you go I made a mini with my leftovers and we're just gonna plop it

into the water and see the fizzy reaction! Let's go! If you aren't

already subscribed to my channel please do and enable notifications so that you

are aware whenever I release a new video! Would you look at that! How fizzy and

cool is that? Now this is a fresh bath bomb, it was made today so it will fizz a

little faster than usual but after these have dried and have become rock-hard

they fizz for a couple minutes in the bathtub! These are awesome!

Kids love them and they produce fizz and color and scent and moisturizing in the Tub!

Anonymous: NASA Is About To Announce Discovery Of Alien Life - Duration: 1:23.

Hacktivist group Anonymous claim that NASA is on the brink of announcing the discovery

of intelligent alien life.

According to Anonymous, a spokesman for NASA, Professor Thomas Zurbuchen, stated that disclosure

is imminent during one of the last meetings of the U.S. Science, Space and Technology

committee.

Unilad.co.uk reports: According to the video Professor Zurbuchen said:

Our civilisation is on the verge of discovering evidence of alien life in the cosmos.

Taking into account all of the different activities and missions that are searching for alien

life, we are on the verge of making one of the most profound, unprecedented discoveries

in history.

Anonymous added that Professor Zurbuchen pointed to all of NASA's recent achievements in

their search for extraterrestrial life, such as the presence of hydrogen on Saturn's

moon Enceladus.

On their official website Anonymous said:

The evidence sure seems to imply that something is going on in the skies above.

It would cost a lot for spaceships and a continuous flow of taxes and black budget dollars could

imply a rational that there is more than meets the eye and or that of public knowledge.

What do you think about this?

Please share this news and tell us what you think!

🌈 I Hate(d) Gay Pride 🌈 - Duration: 5:03.

Hey guys, I'm Devin de Lima, and if you're unaware, this month is Pride Month, which

is why you may be seeing so many Pride Parades taking place in your city or town.

As a gay man, I have to admit, I never used to like Gay Pride.

In fact, I honestly hated it as a teenager and for most of my young adulthood.

I didn't see the point.

In fact, I was one of those ones who said

"I don't understand what gay people have to be so proud about.

It's just a sexuality."

I sometimes didn't want anything to do with it, and even when people assumed that I, as

a gay man, would be going to such an event, I was defensive and even mortified to be asked

such a question.

Hey, are you going to pride this weekend?

Oh my god, no, no, no.

I don't go to that.

Oh, why?

Just don't get it at all, ya know?

And even a straight ally at that point would be like, "wait what?".

I mean, I had friends of all sexual orientation and gender identities going to Pride, and

for some reason, I really, really felt uncomfortable with the entire concept of it.

I used to think that Pride was nothing more than an excuse for half naked men to waltz

around and cruise for dick in an open area.

Seriously, that's what I legitimately thought Pride was about.

And maybe for some, it is, but as I've gotten older, I've had this turning point where

I realize that Pride has so much bigger of a message than that.

I mean, look at me right now, talking about being openly gay on the internet, and I'm

not afraid to do so.

I'm not afraid to go out in public with my significant other, and I'm not afraid

to be called names or even beat up at the sheer idea that I am romantically involved

with someone of my own gender.

You see, I was born in 1991, so truly, when I was coming into my own sexuality and realizing

that

"wow, I'm really gay"

I had no idea that I had been coming into my own sexuality at the greatest time to ever

be able to do so.

Sure, when I was in high school, I remained closeted, except for when I finally told everyone

in my senior year.

Also, somehow I still lost the Most Unique superlative to someone who was supposedly

funnier than me despite being the only gay guy who came out in a class of 600+.

Not bitter, I promise.

I had no idea what trials and tribulations had taken place far before I had even been

born to make it so that I can actually casually say that I'm gay on the internet.

Seriously, I had no idea that people legitimately died for my present situation so that I could

work where I work, and no one cares at all.

That so many people have gone through so much for someone like me, a random white guy in

America, to be able to openly express who he was romantically involved with.

Now, I understand that there's an even deeper privilege at hand here as well.

I live in America, where same sex marriage was made legal nationwide on June 26, 2015.

There are thousands of countries out there still where it's not legal at all.

And I'm not talking "third world countries" like most people make up in their mind.

I'm talking about countries like Japan and Australia.

So, where did all of this hatred even come from, even as a gay man who was literally

living through the thick of it all?

I think growing up, I always understood from media that being gay was this shameful, hidden

thing that people shouldn't be proud of.

That your life will be 1000x harder because of it, and you should never choose to be gay,

bi, lesbian, or trans because if you were to, you were basically asking for trouble

for the rest of your life.

I think that's all a bunch of bullshit.

I should've never been ashamed to go to Pride, or mentally belittled those who loved

it with all of their heart.

Instead, I now think "wow, that's awesome!

Pride is such a great, amazing thing for people who really need it!

People like me, in high school, who hated himself for being gay so much that it was

cutting their own arms open and contemplating suicide?

That's who Pride is for."

Do I go to Pride now?

I'll be honest, no, but that actually has nothing to do with these old thoughts.

Instead now, I think

"Do I really want to go out into a crowd when it's like 90 degrees out today?

Nah."

And that's the honest truth!

People who tell me about what a great time they had at Pride or different things they

do at Pride are awesome to me!

I think that Pride is so much bigger than anyone who loves it or hates it could ever

realize because at the end of the day, people literally died for those people to be able

to march through the streets and showcase to the world that they have a different sexual

orientation or way of living than what society views as a "norm".

And I think that's incredible!

So, here's my question to you, dear viewer.

No matter how you identify or whatever your sexual orientation is, I want to know: have

you ever been to Pride?

Did you enjoy it?

If not, why not?

Let me know in the comments down below!

As always, if you liked this video, give me a thumbs up and hit subscribe because I put

out new videos every single Saturday.

I love you guys so much, and I'll see you next week for another brand new video.

Later!

Trump suggests his 'tapes' tweet may have changed Comey's public story - Duration: 3:03.

Trump suggests his 'tapes' tweet may have changed Comey's public story

by Anna Giaritelli

President Trump suggested his May tweet warning former FBI Director James Comey about possible

"tapes" of their one-on-one conversations may have kept the terminated intelligence

official from making up information about their encounters, according to a Fox News

interview that aired Friday.

"But when he found out that I, you know, that there may be tapes out there, whether it's

governmental tapes or anything else, and who knows, I think his story may have changed,"

Trump told Fox News.

"I mean, you'll have to take a look at that because then he has to tell what actually

took place at the events," Trump added.

"And my story didn't change.

My story was always a straight story.

My story was always the truth, but you'll have to determine for yourself whether or

not his story changed."

On Thursday, Trump admitted on Twitter that he has "no idea" if there are recordings of

his conversations with Comey.

"With all of the recently reported electronic surveillance, intercepts, unmasking and illegal

leaking of information, I have no idea � whether there are �tapes' or recordings of my conversations

with James Comey, but I did not make, and do not have, any such recordings," Trump wrote

in two separate tweets.

When asked if his initial tweet from May was a smart way to ensure Comey stayed honest

in congressional hearings, Trump said, "it wasn't very stupid, I can tell you that."

"He did admit that what I said was right.

And if you look further back, before he heard about that, I think maybe he wasn't admitting

that," Trump added.

"So you'll have to do a little investigative reporting to determine that.

But I don't think it will be that hard."

Democrats were left outraged at Trump for suggesting that tapes might exist, and then

saying Thursday that he was not aware of any tapes.

The top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., indicated

that Democrats would continue to examine whether any tapes exist, despite Trump's announcement.

"While I would certainly hope that the president's most recent statement is true, we will continue

to pursue the matter with other witnesses so that the public can be assured that if

recordings were ever made, they will be preserved and be made available to the committee and

ultimately to the public, as well," Schiff said.

Meanwhile, the White House said Trump has no regrets for implying tapes might exist.

"I don't think so," White House deputy press secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters Thursday

when asked if he regretted the post.

Exploring California by Motorcycle | LA to Big Sur Moto Camping (Day 2) - Duration: 11:40.

OMG. That's where we crashed out.

Marko's still in bed.

All right ladies, gentlemen, Vagabuddies, we're going to give you guys a quick

breakdown of what's on the plate for today.

We have a pretty awesome section

of California that we're going to be riding today.

Basically, we're starting off here in Santa Ynez Valley, and we're going to be

riding through a couple of these little Central Californian oddities.

There're some cool towns here- Solvang, Buellton, and then out to

Jalama Beach, which is at the tip of Point Conception, and we're going to call it a

day out by Pismo Beach/ Avila Beach area.

You got murked bro by bugs, man.

They're starting to swell. Look at that bug bites.

The only cure for this is putting a

a helmet on and riding really fast. Let's hop on these motorbikes and

get some breakfast.

A fun little ride out of the Santa Ynez Valley.

We're in the funky town of Solvang. It's literally like a little miniature

Denmark here, the sister city Albergue in Denmark. It's definitely on the quirkier spots

in the Central California coast, and we're going to go start off the day right

with some cinnamon buns and coffee, both of which are very Danish and very

necessary right now. Let's go.

Cinnamon. This is a bear claw with marzipan.

And this is called a Spandle.

It is custard and it means baker's eye.

OMG. Decadent.

A lot of people think that cinnamon buns are American

They actually come from Scandinavia,

and the reason they use cinnamon, which is a spice that came

from the Middle East and Asia because Vikings sailed down Black Sea and traded

with Arab traders a thousand years ago.

Isn't that crazy?

This town is funky, certainly my no means a hidden gem.

There are big tour busses dropping off people from Australia,

Korea, China, but it's still really quirky. It's funny to see this

little slice of Europe here in the middle of California.

Well, we made it here to the vintage

motorcycle museum.

Unfortunately it is closed, but you can

peep in. There are some nice bikes back there,

and you call them and they'll come open it for you.

It's only open on the weekends. From Monday to Friday they will

open it for you $10 per person. However, we're going to continue because we're

trying to cover some ground today, and we don't really have time to be

wasting time, so we're going forward.

We're on the Santa Rosa Road, heading

out to Point Conception

and Jalama Beach. We've passed all

sorts of vineyards and ranches

There're cattle; there's wine and there are these

beautiful open roads. For motorcyclists and for a person who just

generally digs nature, this is just quite the spot to be on a motorbike.

Pulled over on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere and take this

opportunity to refill. For me, personally, this is one of the coolest

parts of California. There's an Air Force base down here,

and back in the day when

they were doing the space program, they thought they were going to land the

Space Shuttle here. So the Air Force bought up all development rights for

these ranches right here, but they ultimately ended up landing the space

shuttles over in Cape Canaveral.

These ranches are not able to be developed, and it's a

beautiful untouched part of California. But I'm out of gas, so luckily we filled

up on some extras.

We're going to refill and go from there.

Oh my gosh. It's so pretty.

And the ocean looks inviting.

Howdy. How's it going?

All right you guys, we've just feasted on a Jalama burger, and now we're

just chillin at Jalama Beach, which is absolutely gorgeous. It really reminds

me of Blacks Beach in San Diego or Baja California, but a kind of a crazy

history that we just encountered inside of the general store.

The largest US Navy disaster in

peacetime took place here in 1923. It's called the Honda Point Disaster.

It was September 8 1923- seven ships were completely lost out of a

fourteen ship armada, which ran aground right on the other side of this point.

23 people were killed. It's just kind of crazy to think... it's such a beautiful

calm day; you'd never really imagine that the weather can get pretty severe

out here and difficult to navigate. We're on the point ....

this little.... like the nipple of California. It just sticks out just a

little bit. But there's actually a bigger disaster right here in the 1850s...a

steamship crashed, and 415 people died.

But we're out here. This is like remote California.

I really do wish that we could hang out here all weekend.

We're going to have to come back and definitely spend a couple of days here.

We've got a long way to go to our next destination.

We're going to have to bunker down and

hit the throttle because we got a lot of mileage to cover. Are you ready to go?

Luckily, we're taking one of the least known sections of the PCH:

Highway 1 between Lompoc, Santa Maria and Pismo Beach.

Let's go. Let's do it.

Vagabuddies, the moto adventurers,

we have arrived to Avila Beach.

Camp is made, kind of.

We've got shit everywhere, but that's where we're sleeping.

There's Marko. Time to go to the hotsprings.

All right, everybody.

We are bathed, showered, and starving.

So where're we going to go eat?

Well, I'll be honest. It takes a lot to get me out of that hot tub after such a

relaxing soak, but we're going to go to a restaurant called Ember. It's a

local or organic awesome restaurant, which is just down the road.

It's supposed to be worth it for the whole trip, so should be good. We're going to

hop into an uber. We're not going to ride our bikes so we can have a beverage or

two, and yeah, enjoy a good meal.

Beard in your beer.

IPAs all day.

We just got our first two dishes,

and they look delicious.

The one that I'm most stoked about is this pork ragout over

some pasta. It's got sauteed kale, and it looks incredible. But Marko,

tell us about the one you're into.Pork belly with abalone over an

avocado sauce, and it looks delish. Oh my god.That's delicious.

Oh my god, Bro. I have to say great job, great find.

Would never have known that

this place existed. The Ember has sparked a flame, and I will return and

feast here again. That's because on Vagabrothers, it's about the journey and the destination.

Enjoy the ride. We're just riding our beast from feast

to feast. Dude, that's yours.

You cannot take that from me. Ok, fine, but I have the saying of

rough camping and fine dining. There you go. Take it.

We're saving money on accommodation.

30 bucks for two people sleeping on the floor.

Rough camping, fine dining, and we're at our beasts from feast to feast.

and then we're spending the money on nice restaurants.

If you guys enjoyed this video, stay

tuned for the next one because we're going to Big Sur, but the road is closed.

We're taking a detour through Paso Robles. Going to be dope.

Stay tuned for that video coming up next.

You know what to do: stay curious, keep exploring, we'll see

you on the road tomorrow. California motorcycle adventure continues.

Peace.

Iridescent Light Simulations | Two Minute Papers #165 - Duration: 3:05.

Dear Fellow Scholars, this is Two Minute Papers with Károly Zsolnai-Fehér.

From many fond childhood memories, most of us are quite fond of the colorful physical

appearance of bubbles and fuel-water mixtures.

We also know surprisingly little about this peculiar phenomenon where the color of an

object changes when we either turn our head or change the lighting.

This happens in a very colorful manner, and physicists like to call this iridescence or

goniochromism.

What is even less known, is that if we try to use a light simulation program to make

an image with leather, we'll be surprised to see that it also shows a pronounced goniochromatic

effect.

An even more less known fact is that quite a few birds, insects, minerals, sea shells,

and even some fruits are iridescent as well.

I've added links to some really cool additional readings to the video description for your

enjoyment.

This effect is caused by materials that scatter different colors of light in different directions.

A white incoming light is therefore scattered not in one direction, but in a number of different

directions, sorted by their colors.

This is why we get these beautiful, rainbow-colored patterns that we all love so much.

Now that we know what iridescence is, the next step is obviously to infuse our light

simulation programs to have this awesome feature.

This paper is about simulating this effect with microfacets, which are tiny microstructures

on the surface of rough objects.

And with this, it is now suddenly possible to put a thin iridescent film onto a virtual

object and create a photorealistic image out of it.

If you are into math and would like to read about some tasty spectral integration in the

frequency space with Fourier transforms, this paper is for you.

If you are not a mathematician, also make sure to have a look because the production

quality of this paper is through the roof.

The methodology, derivations, comparisons are all really crisp.

Loving it.

If you have a look, you will get a glimpse of what it takes to create a work of this

quality.

This is one of the best papers in photorealistic rendering I've seen in a while.

In the meantime, I am getting more and more messages from you Fellow Scholars who tell

their stories on how they chose to turn their lives around and started studying science

because of this series.

Wow.

That's incredibly humbling, and I really don't know how to express my joy for this.

I always say that it's so great to be a part of the future, and I am delighted to see that

some of you want to be a part of the future and not only as an observer, but as a research

scientist.

This sort of impact is stronger than the absolute best case scenario I have ever dreamed of

for the series.

Thanks for watching and for your generous support, and I'll see you next time!

Hillary Emails Reveal NATO Killed Gaddafi to Stop Libyan Creation - Duration: 5:06.

Hillary Emails Reveal NATO Killed Gaddafi to Stop Libyan Creation of Gold-Backed Currency

Hillary�s emails truly are the gifts that keep on giving. While France led the proponents

of the UN Security Council Resolution that would create a no-fly zone in Libya, it claimed

that its primary concern was the protection of Libyan civilians (considering the current

state of affairs alone, one must rethink the authenticity of this concern). As many �conspiracy

theorists� will claim, one of the real reasons to go to Libya was Gaddafi�s planned gold

dinar.

One of the 3,000 Hillary Clinton emails released by the State Department on New Year�s Eve

(where real news is sent to die quietly) has revealed evidence that NATO�s plot to overthrow

Gaddafi was fueled by first their desire to quash the gold-backed African currency, and

second the Libyan oil reserves.

The email in question was sent to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton by her unofficial

adviser Sydney Blumenthal titled �France�s client and Qaddafi�s gold�.

From Foreign Policy Journal: The email identifies French President Nicholas

Sarkozy as leading the attack on Libya with five specific purposes in mind: to obtain

Libyan oil, ensure French influence in the region, increase Sarkozy�s reputation domestically,

assert French military power, and to prevent Gaddafi�s influence in what is considered

�Francophone Africa.�

Most astounding is the lengthy section delineating the huge threat that Gaddafi�s gold and

silver reserves, estimated at �143 tons of gold, and a similar amount in silver,�

posed to the French franc (CFA) circulating as a prime African currency.

And here is the section of the email proving that NATO had ulterior motives for destroying

Libya (UPDATE: The link has since been killed, but here is the web cache):

This gold was accumulated prior to the current rebellion and was intended to be used to establish

a pan-African currency based on the Libyan golden Dinar. This plan was designed to provide

the Francophone African Countries with an alternative to the French franc (CFA).

(Source Comment: According to knowledgeable individuals this quantity of gold and silver

is valued at more than $7 billion. French intelligence officers discovered this plan

shortly after the current rebellion began, and this was one of the factors that influenced

President Nicolas Sarkozy�s decision to commit France to the attack on Libya. According

to these individuals Sarkozy�s plans are driven by the following issues:

a. A desire to gain a greater share of Libya oil production,

b. Increase French influence in North Africa,

c. Improve his internal political situation in France,

d. Provide the French military with an opportunity to reassert its position in the world,

e. Address the concern of his advisors over Qaddafi�s long term plans to supplant France

as the dominant power in Francophone Africa)

Ergo as soon as French intel discovered Gaddafi�s dinar plans, they decided to spearhead the

campaign against him- having accumulated enough good reasons to take over.

Sadly, Gaddafi had earlier warned Europe (in a �prophetic� phone conversations with

Blair) that his fall would prompt the rise of Islamic extremism in the West. A warning

that would go unheeded; what�s a few lives in France and Libya, if the larger goal lines

the pockets of politicians and the elite so much better after all?
