But, what about this?
what if you typed a catchier post title? I ain’t suggesting your content is not solid., however suppose you added
a headline that grabbed people’s attention? I mean Libya’s Pivot Irrigation in the Sahara Proves Money Can Do Anything |
Green Prophet is a little boring. You could peek at Yahoo’s home page and see
how they write news headlines to grab people interested.
You might try adding a video or a picture or two to get readers excited about what you’ve written. In my
opinion, it might make your blog a little livelier.

Yes it has been an expensive project but at least he has not wasted oil money on grand Palaces & other grandiose projects unlike several Arab countries.
As for pivot irrigation cost, again the idea is to make Libya self sufficient in food. Isn’t Saudi Arabia trying to do the same by growing wheat in the Kingdom?!

Qaddafi was amongst the few leaders who saw water as a source of next wars and embarked on the GMR project to ensure water supply for his country for decades.

The West’s ” bogey man ” should be given credit where due!
