<p>[QUOTE=&quot;InfleXion, post: 1295909, member: 29012&quot;]The most compelling reason I have heard is because Libya didn&#039;t have a central bank in the manner that most nations do. There was zero interest charged on loans, no usury which is a much stronger tradition in that part of the world than it is here. Somehow the scrappy rebels had a central bank ready to go within a couple weeks that went along more traditional lines in western governments.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>I would agree that oil is big, but the other big one is gold. A lot of Gaddafi&#039;s gold went unaccounted for. He was also a good friend of Chavez who supposedly has his gold on the way. Suffice it to say, there are no shortage of reasons for the power elite not to like him.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
