Most revealing of all is the blueprint that NATO has drawn
up for post-Gadhafi Libya. Prior to the
war, Libya had no debts and was a creditor nation until NATO countries froze
$150 billion in Libyan assets.
Ironically, after inflicting extensive damage on the Libyan
infrastructure and freezing assets, the World Bank has offered to loan money to
the NTC for reconstruction and development.
According to a World Bank press release on September 13, 2011: "The Bank
has been asked to examine the need for repair and restoration of services in
the water, energy and transport sectors and in cooperation with the
International Monetary Fund, to support budget preparation and help the banking
sector on its feet."
The IMF's austerity programs are infamous in their thinly
veiled attempt to dictate terms to countries for the benefit of the major
powers who control the IMF through their one-sided voting formula. To quote George W. Bush: "mission
accomplished".
