PARIS JUNKET PROMOTES NAPOLEON SARKO'S REELECTION

funds was a critical step in helping Libya rebuild.In reality, this junket
promotes Sarko's reelection campaign!disguised as being of political importance.For example, a keptocrat might
travel to Greece, claiming to attend a conference there, but leaving plenty of
days to explore the Greek islands and Greek delights at leisure.

Napoleon Sarko says the decisions that Friends of Libya have taken regard the
unanimous request to unfreeze Libyan a*sets and all the money that was embezzled
by Gadhafi and his entourage.Friends of Libya have committed to unblock funds
from the Libya of the past to finance the development of the Libya of the
future.they cannot miss a good party at taxpayers' expense.The worst thing that could
happen in a junket is running out of caviar and hookers.Many junketeers use
military jets that cost 10,000 euros per hour!Deputies of the European
Parliament (EP), aka Eldorado of Prostitutes, love junkets!

Merkel points out the United Nations had authorized Germany to release one
billion euros of frozen Gadhafi a*sets to the interim government.German aid
will develope Libya's police force and political structures.

The Arab Spring consists of a mishmash of anti-government demonstrations
triggered in most cases by police over-reaction and fuelled by economic hard
times (Tunisia and Egypt), ethnic and religious tensions (Syria and Bahrain),
tribal rivalries (Libya and Yemen), and by growing public perception that
Planetarch Uncle Sam is tired of the Middle East.

The meeting was organized as a show of support for the new leadership in Libya,
the rebel-led National Transitional Council (NTC), and to show Sarko as a global
superleader in time for the French presidential elections.Mahmoud Jibril muses
the world bet on the Libyans and the Libyans showed their courage and made their
dream real.

The impression we have at the moment is of a breathtaking acceleration of
history, similar to the fall of the Berlin Wall, in 1989.At this point, no one
can say what the liberal movements in these countries will turn into.
Revolutions often end up as something different from what their supporters
proclaim at the beginning.Democracies are fragile systems that require deep
historic roots.

It took almost a century from the time of the French Revolution in 1789 until
the democratic form of government, in the form of the Third Republic, finally
took shape after France had lost a war against the Germans in 1871.In the
interim, there was Napoleon, the royalist restoration and the Second Empire
under Napoleon III, the little one, as Victor Hugo said derisively.

Hillary Clinton points out that what happens in the coming days will be
critical, and the international community has to help the Libyan people get it
right:

* First, Clinton a*serts we need to continue NATO's military mission as long as
civilians remain under threat of attack.For the sake of the Libyan people, we
have called on Qadhafi and those around him to recognize that their time is over
and lay down their arms.And as the new Libyan authorities consolidate power, we
will support their efforts to demobilize and integrate fighters into a single
security force.

* Second, we need to welcome Libya back into the community of nations.Nearly 70
countries so far have recognized the TNC, including 18 African nations, the Arab
League, and now Russia.It is time for others to follow suit.

* Third, we must continue to support the interim Libyan authority's efforts to
meet the needs of the Libyan people.The United States and our partners have
worked through the United Nations to unfreeze billions of dollars in order for
Libya to get access to their state a*sets to meet critical needs.Clinton is
pleased to announce that by the end of today, the United States expects to have
delivered $700 million to help the TNC pay for fuel and civilian operating costs
and salaries, with another 800 million on the way.We are working with the TNC
to ensure that these funds are disbursed in a transparent, accountable manner.
It must be clear to Libyans and to the world that this money is being used to
serve the Libyan people.

* Fourth, the international community, led by the United Nations, needs to help
the Libyan people and their leaders pave a path to peaceful, inclusive democracy
one that banishes violence as a political tool and promotes tolerance and
pluralism.After 42 years of Qadhafi's rule, it is going to take time to build
institutions, strengthen civil society, write a constitution, hold free and fair
elections, and put in place an elected, legitimate Libyan government.Clinton
encourages the world's democracies to offer expertise and technical a*sistance
along the way.

Gadhafi managed to broadcast a statement on Libyan TV where he encourages his
supporters to keep fighting, and to let Libya be engulfed by flames! Gadhafi
spoke on the 42nd anniversary of the coup that brought him to power. Mad Gadhafi
hides in the desert town of Bani Walid, 150 kilometers southeast of Tripoli.

Clinton points out this as a moment of great challenge and great opportunity
and the two are inexorably linked.Uprisings across the region have exposed a
number of myths: The myth that governments can hold on to power without
responding to their people's aspirations or respecting their rights; the myth
that the only way to produce change in the region is through violence and
conflict; and, most pernicious of all, the myth that Arabs do not share
universal human aspirations for freedom, dignity, and opportunity.

Scores of European companies are already lining up to clinch deals in Libya.
Italy is scrambling to get its oil supplies resumed, and Russia and China have
made it clear they attended the Paris junket to defend their commercial
interests!There is a lot of hoodwinking, because everyone is saying he first
came here to help the Libyan people, but there is a lot of business talk for
Libyan oil and selling to Libya.

Global junkets of kleptocrats fail to live up to the hype and the promises made.
A lot of money is spent laying them on.Host cities are disrupted for days or
even weeks. The cavalcades roll into town.Good intentions are shared in
productive talks.Then, somehow, those intentions rarely seem to come to
fruition in real, tangible global action.When kleptocrats meet again a year
later, they find things haven't really moved on.

When kleptocrats meet each other on junkets, they exchange gifts paid by their
governments.The most expensive gifts, and secret cash under the table, are
given by the Royal House of Saudi Arabia.That's why so many Eurokleptocrats
are eager to meet the Saudi princes!The ridiculous awarding of medals among
politicians should be banned.It insults the intelligence of citizens.Medal
swapping is as disgusting as wife swapping!
