LIBYA BREAKS UP




September 9, 2011

Celebrating the destruction of Libya by the CIA?

Libya is in chaos.

People are ignoring the council that is supposed to be running Libya.

"Misurata’s rebels have set up a security cordon around their city and reorganized their brigades to exclude them from taking orders from the council.

"Nafusa brigades are considering following suit."

On 10 September 2011 we read about 'Libya: So far', according to The Economist

According to The Economist:

1. Much of Tripoli feels half empty.
Most shops are shuttered.

There are continued shortages.

Petrol queues in some areas stretch for a kilometre.

Bread is scarce.
2. There is not yet much sign of government in Tripoli.
Tripoli is run by and policed by bands of bearded fighters who cruise around in pickups mounted with heavy guns and lounge at checkpoints.

There are Libyans who believe the rebels are rapists and looters.
3. The rebel army is loosely organized and ill-disciplined.
Weapons proliferate, including explosives and rockets in unguarded piles.
 Truthfully, what do these children understand about the politics and what is actually at stake?

According to The Economist:

Tripoli's city council overturned Benghazi's appointment and insisted on putting Abdel Hakim Belhaj, a jihadist veteran, in charge.

Some rebels are reluctant to obey the new National Liberation Army led by Mahmoud Suleiman, the official overall commander, and Khalifa Haftar, its commander on the ground

  1. Who´s in charge? Well NATO is for sure. That´s for certain, but will the western wolf pack be able to digests their loot in peace? Of course not, this time they may
    have bitten of more than they can chew.

    I can hear the Russian jet´s and bombers from here. Not those from the Barents of course but there are two drills being held simultaneously and from my perspective and the rest of the flotilla from the closed city of Severomorsk it´s immense and they are doing it for a reason...
