The government of Muammar brought the Libyan government from poverty and debt, to prosperity and debt-free status in 41 years.Jehad



Before Gaddafi, literacy in Libya was only 10%. Since Gaddafi’s leadership, literacy has risen to 90%.

Undernourishment in Libya is at 2% – a figure lower than that of the world center of “democracy,” the United States of America.



Education from grade school through to college is free in Libya.



Healthcare is free and Libyan pharmacies and hospitals are comparable to high-quality European facilities.



Libya ranks No. 53 on the United Nations Index of Human Development.



Libya has the highest standard of living in Africa.



In 1969 before Qaddafi it was the lowest in the world at just $60 per year income



Libya gives free land and seeds to anyone who wants to farm that land.





There is virtually no homelessness in Libya as everyone is given a home.



Women in Libya have equal rights, not only as a philosophy, but in practice.



Under Gaddafi’s oil-revenue-sharing program, each Libyan gets $500 (Dollars) deposited into his or her bank account each month.



For any medical care, operations, or health treatments that are unavailable in Libya, the citizen is given full expenses for travel, treatment and accommodation abroad to wherever is required for the treatment to be given.



No other country in the world does this. Yet they say no democracy in Libya.



On marriage, each couple is gifted $60,000 to do with as they please; furnish their home, take a holiday, honeymoon, buy car, etc.



Libyans have a direct participatory democracy based on People’s Conferences that puts other “democracies” to shame.

---- Now tell me which western government does this?





Prior to Qaddafi revolutionary re-making, Libya was a large US military base used for bombing trainings. Libya was home to the largest US military base in North Africa.



This is what they mean by peace: let your country be used by a nuclear-armed state (that previously used them on civilians and which justifies this horrendous act to this very day) to practice bombing targets while you spent your time partying.





If all these are not democracy,so what are they bringing?

If this is true, then am completely speechless. I always suspected that the west was up to no good. The haste with which that country was invaded at the slightest of opportunity.

Let's reason together sincerely.Did the western World help Liberia when they needed it? I do not see any reasonable help,don't know if you do.why didn't they?Because they don't have Oil. Ambassador Abdulrazaq Oyebanji Hamzat

As much as its not justifiable for Gadhaffi to remain in power for that long i'm still pro-Gadhaffi if not for anything but for the way he polished that Nation

where are the colonial dogs and the western backer. Libya is far much better than most countries in the world. The war is all about OIL

those moneys were never lodged in Qaddafi's name, it was a smoke screen to spur up hatred against him. It has being verified that those billions of dollar were lodged in Libyan name. At the start of the crisis, the slogan was Qaddafi's money, it has now being reversed to Libya government frozen assets. As for Qaddafi staying in power for 42yrs is another example of the west in desperation to make him a bogeyman. They will not tell you that Qaddafi relinquished his power as head of state in 1988. And that their present system is what they called peoples parliament, direct democracy! which is made up of the representative of the entire Libyan tribes, they have absolute legislative powers, headed by an elected prime minister within them, Hope this link will show you the inner workings of the west, how they want to perpetually hold us captives

The management has been good although the behaviour towards people absolutely bad. What's needed is combination of both to provide financial stability to any country.
