Obama Wars Title: (Illinois) National Guard Called Up for Libyan Intervention (O'bomber refueling) Once again, the professional war-makers are taking you to the cleaners. So far, according to Fox News, Obama's little excursion into Libya has cost you millions. Fox cites a Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments analysis estimating that the Libyan no-fly zone may cost $100 million to $300 million per week. Clinton's State Department refuses to provide a figure on how much this unconstitutional boondoggle to oust Gaddafi and secure Libyan oil for transnational globalist corporations will cost. Rep. Dennis Kucinich, Democrat from Ohio, has called for Congress to de-fund military operations in Libya, which he estimated costs between $30 million and $100 million a week. The Pentagon wants $553 billion for the fiscal year beginning October 1. In addition, it wants $118 billion in war costs for the endless occupations of Iraq and Afghanistan. The violation of Libyan national sovereignty and calculated murder of its citizens is a national security issue and beyond the pale of budget cutters, according to Rep. Howard Berman of California, top dog Democrat on the House Foreign Affairs Committee. "Do we sit out the whole transition in Egypt or are there roles we can play?" Berman asked in rhetorical fashion. "Even the most rabid budget-cutters have as a general proposition accepted the notion that national security matters are treated differently than other matters." In short, the war machine is off-limits. Grandma may not get her Social Security check, teachers may be fired, cops and fire fighters will be pink slipped, but the military industrial complex and the banksters who loan funny money at interest to fund national security matters will be allowed to run their trumped-up clash of civilizations wars. Like all national security matters turned over to the Pentagon, this one will need warm bodies in addition to boatloads of cash to keep the scam running smoothly. Enter the National Guard. An Air National Guard unit based out of Illinois is heading to Libya to help fight against Colonel Gaddafi, reports NBC Chicago. "I am proud that the National Guard is able to play a part in curbing the atrocious violence against Libyan civilians by their own government, said Maj. Gen. William L. Enyart, the Adjutant General of the Illinois National Guard, reading a Pentagon generated statement. The unit is based out of Scott Air Force Base in southwest Illinois and specializes in refueling aircraft in mid-air. It will join the mission to impose a no-fly zone over Libya, in other words it will help make war on the African nation. Bush relied heavily on the National Guard in Iraq and Afghanistan. Section 8 of the Constitution provides "for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions." Our rulers have turned this on its head. Now the Militia -- the National Guard -- is used to facilitate invasions, not repel them. More National Guard troops may soon be required. The Pentagon is reportedly considering all options as Gaddafi's forces continue to battle the globalist supported rebels in Libya's civil war.
