Transcript
You told the president, you said, be prepared because it will be coming to your shores, America, to your door, you said. And your advice to Obama was to remember the words you're making to other nations. Well, today, our dear brother, you know, has to be very, very careful in this decision and that he and his Secretary of State and Sarkozy and Prime Minister Cameron and others are planning, they would love to go into Libya and kill brother Qaddafi and kill his children as they did with saddam hussein and his sons kuse and uday you must remember dear people of america that whenever government wants you to think and act in a certain way that would bring justification to an action that they are already planning to make. They must make the person that they hate a boogeyman. Now nobody wants civil war. It is the bloodiest of all kinds of wars because you're fighting your own brothers, you're fighting the people of your own language and culture and history. So in every nation, brothers and sisters, there is dissatisfaction. And what the CIA does is go into a country and move among the people that are dissatisfied to stimulate a revolt against a leader that they don't like because they want regime change. I want to be specific. When George W. Bush was president, he said they wanted regime change in Iran, in Korea. Regime change. How do you get regime change, honest America? How do you do that? Congress, the Congress of the United States, voted to spend $150 million to replace the government in Iran that America doesnica doesn't like so they send their agents in to work among the excuse me the dissatisfied so when they had this election and the people in iran rose up they have legitimate grievances, all right, but stimulated from the outside. So President Obama didn't want to put his foot into that cage lest somebody say America inspired it because it was America's policy to destabilize that government. Well, what about Libya? See, how much money is being spent to arm the so-called rebels? They're dissatisfied. Well, what is their dissatisfaction about? Do they have jobs? Yes. Do they have food? Yes. Has Gadaddafi used the oil money to build Libya? Yes. Did Qaddafi use oil money and discover water under the Sahara Desert and brought that water to the surface and brought water from Benghazi all the way to the border almost of Tunisia? Did he impose farming in the desert so that they could feed their own people? Yes. Are there billions of dollars that he's spending building homes, building apartments for his people? Yes. So something is under this. And so when America, England, France, three imperialist powers want to destabilize that country, is it that you're so concerned? Now listen to this hypocrisy, American people. Is it that you're so concerned over the blood that is being shed in Libya when you look the other way, when the Israeli defense force was bombing the innocent people of Gaza, unarmed men, women, and children, but our government looked the other way? You looked the other way when the Israeli Defense Force went into Lebanon thinking that they were going to have an easy victory? Then you had to come out with your tail between your legs? Don't tell me and wise black people or white people that you're interested in black suffering. Where were you in Rwanda? Where are you in the Congo? I'll see you in the name of Allah that this is more complex than what you think. Go into Libya if you want to. The Libyans do not want foreign occupation on their land and when you make that kind of move if you're not careful you'll unite the libyan people against you and again uh qaddafi wasn't sitting in any tent twiddling his thumbs over these last 10 years this man has been investing in african development This man has been moving throughout Africa. This man has friends all over the world. He may not be your friend, but if you take him out and kill him like he's some rotten fella that wants to kill his own people. What did you do in Waco? Waco what did you do when your people rose up did you talk them out of it no they had weapons you bombed them what did you do in Philadelphia with the move movement did you talk them out of their home or did you bomb them? We didn't hear any outcry from you religious hypocrites that love the lives of human beings. You're a liar and a hypocrite. And I warn my brother, don't you let these wicked demons move you in a direction that will absolutely ruin your future with your people in Africa and throughout the world. They don't like the way you handle Mubarak. They don't like the way you're handling the situation in the Arab world. So I would advise you to be careful and move with wisdom and skill. My advice would be, why don't you organize a group of respected Americans and ask for a meeting with Gaddafi? You can't order him to step down and get out. Who the hell do you think you are that you can talk to a man that built a country over 42 years and ask him step down and get out can anybody ask you well well there's a lot now gonna ask you to step out of the white house because they don't want no black face in the white house be careful brother how you handle this situation because it is coming to America. It has already started. Look in Wisconsin. Look in Ohio. Look at what's going on in your country and remember your words because the American people are rising against their own government. It's not Muslims, it's not black people. It's white militia that are angry with their government, and they are well-armed. Are you going to tell them, put your arms down, and let's talk it over peacefully? I hope so. But if not, America will be bathed in blood, not because Farrakhan said so, but because the dissatisfaction in America has reached the boiling point. Be careful how you manipulate the dissatisfaction in Libya and other parts of the Muslim world. The Honorable Minister, Louis Farrakhan.
