I remember when this happened and people who said this were labelled conspiracy theorists.

The Foreign Policy Journal reports:

The email identifies French President Nicholas Sarkozy as leading the attack on Libya with five specific purposes in mind: to obtain Libyan oil, ensure French influence in the region, increase Sarkozy’s reputation domestically, assert French military power, and to prevent Gaddafi’s influence in what is considered “Francophone Africa.”

Most astounding is the lengthy section delineating the huge threat that Gaddafi’s gold and silver reserves, estimated at “143 tons of gold, and a similar amount in silver,” posed to the French franc (CFA) circulating as a prime African currency.

yes, that is the real reason. he wanted to bypass the petro dollar and start trading oil for currency backed by gold. 

 also, he was sitting on tons of gold and silver. 

 it's a real shame what they have done to that country. Love him or hate him, Gaddafi made libya into a beautiful place to live. Now it is rubble.

 much like syria and Iraq.

kind of sad that all they did was launch a few cruise missiles in the 80's due his terrorist actions but it took the all mighty dollar to do this
