That sounds like the reason why Ghaddfi was killed as well
Ghaddfi was planning to move to the gold dinar for trading oil. He had the ear of several nations because that would have bolstered many economies with gold reserves in their banks.
Saving the world economy from Gaddafi ? RT News
Gaddafi did not give up. In the months leading up to the military intervention, he called on African and Muslim nations to join together to create this new currency that would rival the dollar and euro. They would sell oil and other resources around the world only for gold dinars.
It is an idea that would shift the economic balance of the world.
A country’s wealth would depend on how much gold it had and not how many dollars it traded. And Libya has 144 tons of gold. The UK, for example, has twice as much, but ten times the population.

I always knew that the story of him treating his people badly was an excuse for the us and it's allies a reason to invade the country was true
Even if your "control" is made of debt instruments?
Yep, Eventhough what passes as currency is really nothing more than paper lives have been altered and destroyed over it. So can you imagine what lengths that the powers to be will do to keep it relevant to the rest of the world
Saddam's regime was hardly one of the worst in the world. He was executed for a gassing that happened back in the early 1990s, even though we didn't take this "horrible man" after Desert Storm.
His execution was simply a ploy to make it look like it was worth wild to waste unknown billions on a pointless war that we have no interests in.
I agree 100%. We have been creating our own problems as regards Islamic dominance, simply becausewe have been fighting their battles for them since 1995. We always stick our noses into wars that don't concern us like Bosnia. Milosevic was eradicating Serbs (Muslims) so we went with the UN & "saved" them. Want to guess where the Boston bombers came from ?
Next we backed the Mujahideen (pre Taliban) just to stick a finger in the Russian's eyes. Damn, did that backfire. The result of that was 9/11. God bless Charlie Wilson, huh ?
Who was creating a buffer zone & keeping Iran in check ? You guessed it, Saddam. He was a bad guy, but then, why did Desert Storm let him stay in power ? So GWB could finish his daddy's war ? The whole damn thing was idiotic. WMD's my a**.
And just in the past two years, We helped the Islamic rebels take Libya (Obama's folly) and started arming Syrian Islamist rebels with ties to Iran. You just can't make this stuff up.
Like I stated, we make our own problems.

Reason: space
Yes, over the currency. When Bush gave the world all of that crap about the "Axis of Evil" did anyone but but me notice that all three countries (IRAN,IRAQ and NORTH KOREA) were countries not controlled by a central bank or the IMF?
