    Is there a generally accepted consensus regarding the reason behind Gaddafi's death?

    I'm trying to figure out what were the real motives behind Gaddafi's death but there's just too much controversy regarding the issue on the internet. Some say the main reason was his idea of a new African gold-backed currency and the US was highly insecure about the effects of this new currency to its economy. Is there a generally accepted consensus regarding the issue?

    Because Libya was actually doing ok as a country and his new banking system could have potentially cut somewhat into the profits of the world banking system. It clearly upset the wrong people, so they gave a little donation to Hilarys Clinton Foundation

    He stole an ic4 train (or was given it by some italian agency) that rightly belonged to the DSB (Danish national railway company) and as any that offend the Danish state he had to die

    If you want to believe the media, it's because he was a terrorist that had to be put down.
    If you want to believe (for lack of a better word) alternative sources, it was all about his proposed African currency.

    I personally lean towards the latter.

    Yes, the us gov't wanted him dead. Mostly because he was going to stop using the petrodollar to sell his country's oil. So the cia did the usual 'arm the freedom fighters with a little help from black ops' version of a coup which got him out of power.

    Off-topic, but that gif was a perfect reminder of why Hilary triggers me so much.

    Aren't you fond of agreeing with Trump/Putin how the U.S. are no angels? Surprise to no one that you change your tune when it suits your narrative.

    Some terrorist group stole a bunch of Libyan plutonium, and the team Gaddafi sent to recover the materials, backed by Russian weapons, was a huge failure.

    Edit:

    Not to mention the whole debacle with the German armored vehicles.

    America is 100% good and has never committed a single sin in its entire history. Like the Glorious radiant and revolutionary EU, it is a flawless pearl that are incapable of flaw or fault and is ordained by God!

    On MMO-C we learn that Anti-Fascism is locking arms with corporations, the State Department and agreeing with the CIA, But opposing the CIA and corporate America, and thinking Jews have a right to buy land and can expect tenants to pay rent THAT is ultra-Fash Nazism.

    Arab Spring - 30% unemployment and massive corruption - and no friends left to bail him out. All those shenanigans in '80s came back to bite him the butt when things escalated into civil war.
