Default Al Qaeda has always been a CIA asset

Here are just a few of the issues discussed and debated this week on
amateur radio’s most exciting net:

• Why is the regime in Washington supporting al-Qaeda in Libya but
supposedly fighting it in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Iraq? (14 minutes)


Isn't the CIA there to make sure that you're supporting the moderate
good guys?

• One of the most bizarre twists in the latest illegal war is that the
US troops who were training Qaddafi’s forces had to be quickly
evacuated so that other US troops could be brought in to attack those
same forces. (18 minutes)


The only solution is not to sell arms to undemocratic regimes in the
first place. Unfortunately the temptation seems too strong for
investors, bankers, and the politicians they buy.

• The best US foreign policy would be that advocated by W1WCR: Get the
US out of the Middle East and get the Middle East out of the US. (30
minutes)


I'd be interested to see how this worked out.
