Yes, that is when he first go into the position. Now that he has been there a while he has had time to develop his policies, policies that take time to negotiate and implement. Policies that threaten the international banking cartels. Such things do not happen over night, now that he is getting close to finalising it some people are getting threatened and want to go all JFK on him for putting some integrity back into the financial system.

Looking into it a bit more and Gaddafi did lose his role as chairman in Jan 2010. He still would have held a strong role and influence within the organisation. Currently, the African Union does still back Gaffafi, www.allvoices.com...

He wasn't 'getting close to finalizing it'. In fact, the article you posted as evidence clearly states that many within the African Union do not agree with his ideas of a "United States of Africa" whatsoever.

And what 'integrity'? He just wants to consolidate power in his own hands.

There are a lot of articles and things Gaddafi failed on in relation to his attempts to unify Africa. A common African currency is one that was making progress. As for integrity, Gaddafi would not own all the money It was looking to be be a gold backed currency. Not the debt backed stuff we have in the west full of toxic assets and junk bonds. This is where I see Gaddafi being a threat to the west and the reason for the campaign against him.

Yes, but my point is there is no evidence to show he was ANYWHERE near a completion of that vision. Mainly because he didnt have agreement amongst OTHER AFRICANS. The UN wouldn't need to take him out for that reason, because it wasn't actually happening.

Zimbabwe is currently making moves towards a gold backed currency and so far no international invasion so you may have a point, time will tell in how this plays out. Trying to get all of Africa to agree on anything is a very lengthy process but there where quite a few countries ready to get on board with a standard African Currency.

The other important economic front with Libya and the international community is with its move away from the petro dollar in oil trading. China and Russia have already taken steps to drop the USD in the oil trade as the American economy is drowning in debt and unresolved corruption. As more countries make this move the US economy will weaken further so there is incentive for invasion there.

With the Rebels setting up there own bank within the first week or two of the skirmishes is clear evidence that there is an international economic component to this conflict. For a loose band of dissenters to be more concerned about getting 4% interest PA on their savings while the bullets are still flying does not add up in how the media is painting this conflict.

Yes, I was being sarcastic. My bad. The actual functions of the bank appears to be with facilitating the oil trade. The Rebels have captured the east part of Libya, where most of the oil production and shipping occurs. The establishment of this bank takes the Gaddafi government out of the loop in maintaining oil production.
