Glad to hear that Rania has joined your reporting. She’s right up there with Ben Norton and Katie Halper and others.

Great one. Been wanting to learn more about Libya for a while.

George Erbele, I regularly watch Rania’s programs and Katie’s programs and, even though Katie is good, Rania has a much wider and deeper left analysis and a brilliant variety guests. Rania has interviews intellectual activists from the global south who are almost entirely ignored in the west.

I don't see how Katie has a program. She doesn't have the sharp mind of a Greenwald, Taibbi or Blumenthal. She's tediously not funny and, at least to me, interrupting and annoying. Different strokes.

fantastic interview. it's amazing what we don't get taught about history in the west..

i love that these episodes have never or almost never any ads

THIS ANALYSIS IS SO INCISIVE! SPOT ON.

Love your work Rania, you're doing such important work. Looking forward to watching this and learning something new. Cheers and keep doing what you're doing!

Thank you 🙏. Great work . Excellent analysis full of insight & wisdom . Lessons we will never learn public institutions.🤞✌️✨

Hi Rania, love your work. I was in Libya from 2006 to 2011, my time was divided between working in Tripoli and the western desert region. I met and worked with many people from those holding government posts to tribal workers in the desert. In his attempt to understand how the current Libyan mess came to be I think your guest covers outside geopolitical elements but fails to consider the “ real Libyan” citizens in his analysis. Yes great external forces were in play, for one reason only, oil and the wealth it brings but to understand how this mess could happen, that is what factors set up the environment for the government to collapse one absolutely must understand the Libyan peoples. They are a very complex culture and people, Libya is a tribal society and power dynamics are constantly at play and in flux from the highest levels of government all the way down to the basic camel and sheep herders in the desert. One must examine the people in detail just to BEGIN to grasp why all of this has happened.

Fantastic stuff!!

She has a really good speaking voice very clear!

This is the first time I hear about Matteo Capasso. He seems very very well knowledgeable on political affairs. Thanks for hosting him. Does he have a KZread channel? I'd like to follow him as well

please accept my bows my respects for the true stories (from A to Z) in the last years of muammar ghaddafi era-libya...

Love your show Rania. I so much wanted to learn from this episode. But there's a high pitched background noise which made it impossible for me to understand the speaker. Surely you have an audio editing program to eliminate background noise.

Great information! I just recommend your guests use earphones with microphone so we can hear better. There was a lot of information that can't be understood due to poor quality sound. Thank you!

"the working class was not generated into a productive force"... highly agree... libya is also a victim of "national oil wealth" in a sense that libya did not see the long term role of the working class in the continuity of revolutionary cause... this "national oil wealth" is what was used to drag soviet-russia into a total economic collapse, ussr source of revenue was 80% from "oil wealth"... but then, russia is an age old empiredom that survived through hard-power, so it cannot perish because of economic collapse...

Libya, Chile, Guatemala, Iran, Ghana,etc. Congo, etc.were tragic victims of pre--multipolar coalition.

We need to take hold of critical resources and infrastructure and use them only for common, sovereign human interest.

Great interview as always. Love ya Rania! Solidarity from our little leftist studio to BTN!

A wonderful lecture from the ever-brilliant Matteo. Thank you so much for this. There are undoubtedly dark undertones within the conversation but without proper analysis we can never defeat the imperialists.

Thumbs up

Libya was the only thing hilding back French imperialism in West Africa. Libya would likely be helping or at least advising Niger.

Read the green book

the gold dinar threatened the petrodollar and the whole dollar denominated system. i think that's why usa killed khadafi.

Who's surprised? Probably those who lack an understanding of Imperial dynamics and/or the fact that the US has been engaged in empire building pretty much forever. A better question would be how do we expand this understanding of geopolitics in a way that could lead to viable resistance to US empire? Or, is it a problem that we continue expanding empire if it means destroying entire countries?

I hate these armchair revolutionary analysis with big words but are critical with any actions that doesn't fit their pre packaged analysis. He sit there blaming Libya for its destruction. The US and Nato destroyed Libya not Khaddafi. She just sits there asking no questions and not disputing any information. Terrible interview

as a black african I will never forgive Obama for what he did to Libya and Gaddafi, I hope he can see the product of what he has done to that country pleasing his masters, the less I talk about Hilary the better.

Libya had a hand in the way it was perceived on the world stage. Gaddafi engaged in some pretty horrible terrorist actions. The were planting bombs in west German night clubs intended in killing US service men. The financed and provided the explosive to took down the airliner in lLockerbie. These were attacks that killed mainly on civilians. They also provided 30 tons of plastic explosives to the Irish Republican Army and purchased several Stinger missiles. It was 1985 or 86 when President Reagan otlrdered the bombing of Libya which was successful except for damage to the French Embassy but maybe if the Frenxh had not forced the US planes to fly an extra 2500 air miles maybe our aim would have been a little better. After that something changed in Libya and it leader. Eventually Libya end up giving women more rights than any other African country. It started encourages business and Libya started prosper. When it finally paid off the finest from the bombing it turned a corner and things look up. It really was crazy Hillary R Clinton that went out of her way to destroy Gaddafi during the Spring with no regard for the consequences to the country. Gaddafi made the mistake that the west would not let him fall because of the consequences if he did. He was wrong, Libya end up having televised slave auctions and Hillary r Clinton was pat herself on the back.

1)! Others have investigated Lockerbie &’reject Western msm. 2) No country has occupied Europe for 1000 years?! Sounds like a fantasy historically warped Moroccan Arabs were in Spain & Portugal for 100Os of years, England in Ireland for 800 years, Roman Republic & Empire together might have had 1000 years. All versions of Libya from BCE times + ancient Egypt to 21st century never invaded Europe.
