Good Things Happen In The Dark

Charts: I am writing this within a few minutes of the opening bell July 12, so we'll see how the market finishes. At the open key technical support at 1333 was shattered. But the next support level of 1328 held. I eyed my puke bucket but didn't actually vommit, then I pushed away from my screen.

Long War: All the "Arab Spring" elections saw Muslim Brotherhood Islamist candidates winning big time and pro-American secular parties losing. Except in one case: Libya. In Libya, the Muslim Brotherhood was slaughtered in the election last weekend. Rebel military leader Mahmond Jibril will be the next PM of Libya.

Let's backtrack and talk about CIA involvement in the Libya War. Besides Western commandos (Navy SEALs and Green Berets) with phony British accents there is reason to believe that many of the air strikes attributed to NATO war planes actually came from CIA drones. At the time this blog dug into evidence supporting this claim and you can scroll down and reread those old blogs if you want; or just trust me that this was the case. Furthermore, oil production came back in Libya ten times faster than petro analysts expected, further evidence to support my assertion. So there was massive CIA involvement in the Libya War.

Military commander Jibril would have then and still does have massive CIA connections. Now look at the election. Even in the towns and villages with overwhelming jihadist presence, the bad guys still lost.

Yet there is no talk of vote rigging or fraud. Somebody is doing a @#$ good job of keeping the bad guys from running Libya.

There has been almost no Pentagon presence in Libya. Just the spooks at Langley.

Now look at Afghanistan. Eight American soldiers were killed in the last few days there. It's pretty screwed up. Yes, I am sounding like a broken record when I say over and over that the only the CIA can win the Long War, not the Pentagon. But this blog is not supposed to be interesting or entertaining.

In 2014 all NATO troops leave Afghanistan. This will be a good thing, the opposite of what most people believe.
