A senior executive with the Libyan Investment Authority, the $70 billion fund used to invest the country's oil money abroad, said Mr Blair was one of three prominent western businessmen who regularly dealt with Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, son of the former leader.
Saif al-Islam and his close aides oversaw the activities of the fund, and often directed its officials on where they should make its investments, he said.
The executive, speaking on condition of anonymity, said officials were told the "ideas" they were ordered to pursue came from Mr Blair as well as one other British businessman and a former American diplomat.
"Tony Blair's visits were purely lobby visits for banking deals with JP Morgan," he said.

Look's like the alligator skin Blair's been wearing is being pulled back and we now can see pretty clearly how this religious hypocrite
who aided in the death's of over 100,000 innocent Iraqi citizen's really operates. It's no coincidence he was in Libya lobbying for these
deals at the same time the Lockerbee bomber was granted freedom. Blair put his own financial interest's above that of the victims and
their families.

1. The DLC claims Tony Blair as one of its victories.

"Today, many of the ideas that comprise the core of the Democratic Party's agenda come from work done under From's leadership at the DLC. National service, an expanded Earned Income Tax Credit, welfare reform, charter schools, community policing, expanded trade and re-inventing government were all championed by scholars and analysts at the DLC well before becoming part of the Democratic Party's great successes. Today, many leading Democrats from across the nation point to the DLC's brand of politics as a key element of their success.

In 1998, with First Lady Hillary Clinton, From began a dialogue with British Prime Minister Tony Blair and other world leaders, and the DLC brand -- known as The Third Way -- became a model for resurgent progressive governments around the globe. In April 1999, he hosted an historic Third Way forum in Washington with President Clinton, Prime Minister Blair, German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder, Prime Ministers Wim Kok of the Netherlands and Massimo D'Alema of Italy."

2. I'll bet they planned all along to get Libya's money into those banks.

Far from prudent investing, I must say!

3. And Lockerbie wasn't about oil, my ass.

A true enemy of the people.

7. The DLC Dem leaders are pretend operatives - they are the members

of one or more of the Bilderberg groups with a role of making it look like there is a two-party system during the last remnants of a democracy, Blair did/does the same thing from the UK. PM one day, lobbyist the next - same difference.

8. I think it could be easily argued that thanks to Wikileaks

and (allegedly) Bradley Manning that these revolutions caught the powers that be (The West) off guard and they didn't have time to prepare as they did with Iraq and previous coups and such.
Now we see documents getting disclosed that we would have never seen in regards to Tony Blair's actions. I think that's why the U.S. was so keen to let Saddam Hussein be hung by his enemies.
They didn't want that treasure of trove of nefarious deeds on their part to see the light of day. It's also why they want Qaddafi dead so bad now. He knows what Tony's really been up to. The
UK probably has SAS deep in Libya hunting him down at this moment. In regards to the DLC you are 100% correct. They just go along to maintain the order of things. It's no coincidence they are
all mined from Yale and Harvard and Princeton in the CIA. It's also no coincidence that's where Blair has recently given address's to graduating classes. They are all part of the same misaligned stew.
