2014 Rebel* Infighting
July 12, 2014
(last edits, Jan. 6, 2015)
Where "rebel" means the people I called that in 2011 - those involved with the outside powers in the destruction of the last functioning government Libya ever knew.
I open here a new space for comments for my good gremlin "h" and perhaps other to drop helpful information about the new fighting and what it means, etc. Sorry, I'm swamped.
Nov. 23 note: I'm currently absorbing the 110 comments below, plus some basic sources, to get some kind of grasp on this year's situation. While I'm at it, I'll distill this into a readable summary, for what it's worth.
Jan. 6, 2015: With the entire year 2014 to catch up now passed, with little progress, I officially say screw it for now. Who cares if I know about it and can blog about it? H has kept us updated in comments I have been reading some of. I've invited her (her/him) to be a team member and post posts, but no luck. Any other readers willing to give it a try? Preferably someone with analysis and writing skills, but mainly a knowledge of what's up and good links, and on a wavelength compatible with the site ... I forget just how but it's do-able. Join the blog, and you can join me, Petri, and Felix as the three people (or is it all 45 "members"? never been clear on that) who could be authoring visible posts here (and you can edit/update your own posts later, just not anyone else's - I think I get to edit anyone's but not sure about that. I can delete spam, for certain)

Zero comments? I hope I didn't offend you there, h. No pressure, just if you have useful links on these stupid new clashes in Libya, they could go here to save space elsewhere. I saw only the airport fighting, Misrata now called Misratis, and there was some other fighting news I saw in passing ... sorry.

And after that in 2011 : killing or wounding a 90,000-120,000 Libyans and foreigners
Twenty four hours earlier an Atlantic Alliance command unit, located approximately 30 miles off the Libyan coast, in a direct line with Malta, and NATO’s targeting unit had signed off on 49 bombing missions for June 20th, the last day of spring and the last day of NATO’s original UN bombing mandate.
The authority for NATO’s bombing, which far exceeded earlier estimates ,
killing or wounding of between 90,000-120,000 Libyans and foreigners,
and the displacement of more than two million Libyans and foreign workers was claimed from the hastily adopted UN Security Council Resolutions 1970 and UNSCR 1973.
UN resolutions 1970 & 1973 gave NATO UN Chapter 7 authority to enforce a no-fly zone over Libyan airspace, initially for 90 days which ironically ended
the day before its bombing at Sorman.

ReplyDeleteProtests outside Military Intelligence offices at appointment of Salah Badi
The headquarters of the Libyan Military Intelligence was blockaded yesterday
by staff protesting about the appointment of former General National Congress (GNC) member Salah Badi as its new head.
Officers and other staff members from the department complained at the decision to appoint Badi as the Director of Military Intelligence.
It appears that Badi, a former Air Force officer, was appointed in November last year, following his promotion to Colonel by order of GNC head, Nuri Abu Sahmain.
However, the decision was not made public until very recently. The entrances to the Tripoli headquarters was blockaded with sand bags, according to Bawabat Al-Wasat.
They said they would prevent Badi from entering the building and one of the protesters said that Badi was not qualified to do the job.
Spokesman for the Military Intelligence Commission Abdul Basset Al-Shaari said that although the Commission had heard about Badi’s appointment, it had not been asked to vet him. “We haven’t received any papers to investigate him after his appointment as chief of Military Intelligence,” Shaari said. “When he was promoted to colonel, he also should have been investigated by the Commission but again we didn’t receive the relevant papers so we could not open the enquiry.”
Badi was elected as an independent to Congress in July 2012 and became a member of Wafa bloc. He resigned following the request by Misrata’s Local Council that all the city’s GNC representatives to do so following the Gharghour massacre in November 2013
in which some 40 people were killed and scores injured.

ReplyDeleteA statement from the government of Prime Minister Abdullah al-Thinni described the attackers of Tripoli's International Airport as "armed militias acting outside the law and without any official orders."
The government called on all sides to refrain from using force.
Nonetheless, leading Muslim Brotherhood member Abdul Razag al Aradi supported the attackers, describing their grab for the airport as a response to "aggression" by Khalifa Haftar, the ex-general who has been leading Libyan armed forces in a crusade against Islamist militias.
The Zintanis have been actively supporting Haftar's "Operation Dignity" -- his fight against Islamist militias in the east -- and they have also played a role in Haftar's forces in Tripoli. The Zintanis supported Haftar's demands for the dissolution of the General National Congress (GNC), which they see as under the sway of the Islamists.
Justice and Construction Party member Mahmud Abdulaziz also endorsed the operation, hinting that he knew about it in advance. "Libya Shield forces from Misrata have told me they'll keep the number of causalities to a minimum as they attempt to take over the airport," he said in a post on his Facebook page.
All these statements underlined the continuing collapse of state institutions and the inability of the country's leaders to challenge the rise of the militias.
http://transitions.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2014/07/14/please_make_sure_your_tray_tables_and_kalashnikovs_are_in_the_upright_position
The assault on the airport can be interpreted as a pre-emptive move to exert more influence by seizing important installations in the capital.
The Islamists are determined to maintain their position as a key player on the political scene, following their defeat in the recent elections and the rising threat from Haftar's military operation against the Islamists in eastern Libya.
The general has said that he will soon target Islamists in Tripoli as well.

Some other good info, worth working into their spots and maybe even making new spot - if there were two of me, it'd be done soon. Otherwise... I'm still on Syria mainly and pushing on a strong lever - aiming to change as many minds as possible about the Houla Massacre. Will be happening largely at a new blog here.
Eddie, good the hear from you too. Good article. I typed almost a review of it earlier and swear I hit submit but now it's gone. Short version: I forget what I know about Heftar except not too good, I thought. Here - okay. These developments seem to have some good features. The tribes are good. Islamist loss in parliament is good. Less Islamists in Syria and Iraq is good.
ReplyDeleteI finally double-checked Heftar - as I once knew, he's the CIA-groomed Virginian. What I said about this being good is qualified by the fact that a CIA guy is trying to lead this fight against Al-CIAda. Depending where he actually stands now and who with, it could be okay. Otherwise, it could be bad.
ReplyDeleteUS diplomatic staff pulled out now, I hear.
Both the UAE and Saudi Arabia are openly backing Hiftar,
ReplyDeleteas is the military coup leader in Egypt, General Sisi.
Having suppressed, jailed and shot in large numbers Egypt's own Islamists,
Sisi and his Gulf backers are determined to prevent them consolidating power in oil-rich Libya.
There are signs that Sisi – who complains that the west failed to garrison Libya after Gaddafi's overthrow – wants to use Libya's crisis to send in his own forces. 22 May 2014.

13 July 2014 A few days before he was elected Egypt’s president in May,
ReplyDeleteAbdel Fattah al-Sisi discreetly visited tribesmen living along the border with Libya.
Tribal leaders there say Sisi, former head of the army, urged them to help Egypt
confront what could be a security nightmare for the biggest Arab nation:
Islamist militants operating just over the frontier in Libya.
“Sisi came to us and asked us to stand behind the security forces and army to help them to control the border because what is happening in Libya poses a grave danger to Egypt,” said Mohamed al-Raghi, a tribal chief.
Wearing a flowing white robe and a traditional black cap outside a mosque in the border town of Salloum, Raghi said he and other tribal leaders had assured Sisi they would help him.

25 feb. 2011 However, Washington decided to look outside Europe for an army to go into Libya.
Its eye fell on the Egyptian army.
But when over last weekend, the US first took the matter up with Egyptian Defense Minister and head of the Supreme Army Council ruling the country,
Field Marshal Mohammed Tantawi,
the silence from Cairo was eloquent, DEBKA-Net-Weekly‘s military and Washington sources report. The generals clearly had enough on their plates with sorting out the mess left in the wake of the turbulent uprising which removed Mubarak and were too busy to get involved in other troubles.
Unbearable economic strain on Egypt from returning laborers
But when the Egyptians employed in Libya starting flocking back home,
the military rulers changed their minds and decided to give the American proposition
a second look. They were moved by six considerations:( )
As of now, DEBKA-Net-Weekly‘s military and intelligence sources report that Washington and Cairo are discussing a limited Egyptian excursion into Libya.
It will be presented as a US-backed Egyptian campaign, with some European participation, embarked on as the only recourse for terminating Libya’s civil war and forcing its dictator to relinquish power.
But the immediate mission will be for an Egyptian air umbrella to close the air space over Cyrenaica against Libyan air and sea raids.
US military planners calculate that no more than a single Egyptian armored division in Cyrenaica – or even a half of one – would suffice to curb Qaddafi’s offensive on the rebels and force his troops to withdraw.
6. The scenario taking shape in Washington and Cairo according to our sources is this: Limited Egyptian military intervention supported by European sanctions would result in Libya’s partition into two national entities: Cyrenaica and Tripolitania, which will also include the Fezzan region.

2.24.11, 11:34 Meanwhile, Al Qaeda's North African wing has condemned Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi and expressed solidarity with protesters revolting against his rule, the SITE Intelligence Group quoted it as saying on Thursday.
Al Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM) accused Gaddafi of hiring African mercenaries
and ordering aircraft to fire on protestors, SITE said, citing a jihadist statement issued on Thursday.
AQIM urged Muslim scholars, thinkers and journalists to support the Libyan people in their uprising.
"We were pained by the carnage and the cowardly massacres carried out by the killer of innocents Gaddafi against our people and our unarmed Muslim brothers who only came to lift his oppression, his disbelief, his tyranny and his might," AQIM was quoted as saying in the statement.
"We only came out to defend you against these despots who usurped your rights, plundered your wealth, and prevented you from having the minimum requirements of a dignified life and the simplest meanings of freedom and human dignity," AQIM said.
The group, under pressure from Algerian security forces in the north, moved some of its operations to the desert area straddling Niger, Mali, Algeria and Mauritania where the vast expanses and porous borders have provided it with a safe haven.

7 July 2014 In the last few months, Nato intelligence has identified the Acacus Mountains in south-west Libya, the town and surrounds of Oubari, possibly also Sebha and parts of the Messak ranges, as terrorist “hideouts” and possible new bases.
In addition, there has been a lot of “chatter” in intelligence circles that Algerian terrorist Mokhtar Belmokhtar has now established himself in Libya and is planning terrorist operations in Chad.

After the massacre, the soldiers threw car tires into the warehouse and set fire to them, says Rafaii. It seems plausible:
Tires burn for a long time, which would explain why the ash surrounding the skeletons was still warm on Saturday evening.
It could also explain why only the bones of the dead were left, which would not have happened with a short gasoline-fueled fire.

Calling his campaign “The Dignity” movement,
Haftar has militias from Tripoli and Zintan under his command. He has also recently garnered the backing of the Air Force and Navy as well former elements of Qaddafi’s forces.
His campaign has made the city of Benghazi its primary objective.
These forces have fought the Libya Shield alliance led by former Islamist parliamentarian and Misrata militia commander, Salah Badi, as well as the Benghazi Shura Council,
which is mainly composed of Ansar al-Sharia in Libya.
Haftar’s forces have also been targeting Qatari and Turkish interests in Libya due to their ties to Islamist factions.
http://globalriskinsights.com/2014/08/13/khalifa-haftar-lybias-next-strongman/
Today, all sides in that rebellion continue to play a role, whether militarily or politically. Indeed, groups like the Muslim Brotherhood, the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG),
or Ansar al-Sharia in Libya had no intention to lay down their arms after Gaddafi was finished.
For one thing, Qatar and its ally Turkey, who have long supplied such groups with weapons and money, realized that the most important part of the uprising was the post-Gaddafi phase, and that the only fruits worth picking are the ones that are ripe.
Qatar and Turkey had their way with the Islamist domination of the General National Congress
that was elected in July 2012, after successfully turning their minority into a majority against Mahmoud Jibril’s faction.
The fact of the matter was that “independent” MPs were actually supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood from day one.
Hence, the Islamists dominated the country. The militias affiliated to them were given official cover under the command of Abdelhakim Belhadj, who was a former LIFG leader.
These militias consisted of jihadis who returned from Afghanistan, and are very close to Qatar and Turkey.
But Saudi Arabia would not tolerate the expansion led by its small neighbor in the Gulf
into North Africa. Saudi Arabia could not tolerate for the Muslim Brotherhood, now its archenemy, to control an oil-rich country like Libya, and decided to press “the reset button” in regards to the situation there.
Saudi and its ally the UAE thus began supplying the Zintan Brigades, which sporadically controlled Tripoli International Airport, with weapons and money.

For Misratans, though, the presence of Zintan militias at the airport is a problem.
“Zintan must leave the airport,” said Anwar Suwan, a member of Misrata’s military council on Sunday, a week after the first attacks, from a small farm in Gaser Bengashir,
a district in Tripoli east of the airport, where Misrata are basing their attack.

By taking the airport the Misratans have eliminated one of the main weapons supply hubs for their opponents.”

said it was important that the general public "knows that there is an advance plan".
"What you have obtained was an early draft," he told the paper. "We are now working on a much bigger picture."
A 70-page plan prepared by the National Transitional Council (NTC) with help from Western powers and seen by the paper concedes they have little chance of toppling the long-serving ruler but that internal divisions will force him out.
In that event, the rebels plan to establish a 10 000-15 000 strong "Tripoli task force" to secure the capital and capture prominent Gaddafi supporters.

The decision to launch airstrikes on Libya was made in about 96 hours,
by self-described "humanitarians" who took up the emerging international norm
of "responsibility to protect" as their reason for war.
To the applause of Bernard-Henri Levy and other munitions-grade faux intellectuals,
they argued that Western governments had a duty to use military resources to help civilians who were being abused by their governments.

were dealt a severe blow by garnering just 17 seats

while the MB off shoot party of Ali al-Salabi
and Abdulhakim Belhadj (al Watan) secured just one.
The Libyan MB was also working in conjunction with foreign
governments including Turkey, Qatar, (and probably the US)
as well as the Syrian MB
to supply weapons & fighters to the “Free Syrian Army” (FSA).

Ali al-Salabi used his contacts with MB spiritual leader Yusef al-Qaradawi
and the MB PR arm (al-Jazeera TV) to further the MB agenda in Libya.
His brother, Ismail al-Salabi and fellow MB member Fawzi Bukatef
controlled the umbrella security group, the Feburary 17 Brigade , in Benghazi.
Ali al-Salabi also used his contacts in (MB sympathetic) Qatar
to increase his prominence in post-Ghadafi Libya.
It's implausible to believe al-Salabi and Belhadj did not receive other aid from MB leaders in Egypt during and after the revolution, and it's likely both looked at Egypt as “the model” for the new Libya.
•
However, unlike in Egypt where the MB received tacit approval and support from the US,
the Libyan MB certainly viewed
some “push-back” from the US: The support of “secular” Mahmoud Jibril for interim president and then Prime Minister;
the reported lack of support for Belhadj from Ambassador Stevens
and the public interference in weapons shipments to MB factions in Syria are the most publicly known.

Benghazi has been dealing with a low-grade guerrilla war between Islamist militants and security forces that defected from the former Qaddafi government.
The security forces are now the closest thing to an army, and they have been facing a growing campaign of assassinations and bombings by Islamist militants
for months. ( = years!)

News reports citing Libyan officials said that at least two lawmakers were shot as they tried to flee. One was Abdul Rahman al-Swehli of Misurata, who was said to be hospitalized but not critically injured.
The latest attack coincided with news confirming the arrival of reinforcements from Derna to support armed brigades against Haftar, in addition to the return of Libyan fighters from al-Battar battalion in Syria that joined Ansar al-Sharia.
The battles resulted in water, electricity, and telecommunication cuts and shuttered vital services in the city.
Even medical personnel were unable to work. 29/07/2014
Tariq Elourfi, a local official in Benghazi, called on the city's population to protect their neighbourhoods.
He also appealed to elders in Benghazi and its environs to intervene.
Meanwhile, Ansar al-Sharia announced the death of nine of its leaders, including Ahmed al-Zahawi, brother of its emir, Mohamed al-Zahawi.

resulting in the loss of seven people in their ranks."
http://magharebia.com/en_GB/articles/awi/features/2014/08/13/feature-01
The same source added that the reason for the fight was a power struggle in that "Ansar al-Sharia, led by Mohammed al-Zahawi wants an Islamic emirate in Benghazi
and Wisam bin Humaid wants the Muslim Brotherhood to rule, which led to fighting between them and the rift that took place."

ReplyDeleteMalek al-Sharif, the founder of Libya’s Rejection Movement [Harakat Rafed] :
Sharif said, “In the last elections, the Brotherhood did not win the required percentage [of votes], because of the alliance between the national forces in the political conflict.
However, they succeeded in reaching the National Congress by running as independent candidates.
After succeeding, they announced that there were affiliated with the Brotherhood and a number of ministers in the current government became part of the Brotherhood.”
He said that the Brotherhood in Libya was training some of the groups fleeing Egypt,
and there were figures from the Egyptian Brotherhood that had arrived in Libya
and were being trained in the use of weapons before they returned to Egypt.
The best evidence of this correlation is that the Brotherhood leader Safwat Hegazi was arrested while he was on his way to Libya to be protected by the Libyan Brotherhood.
On the statement of the Libyan ambassador in Cairo, who had said that those who were kidnapping Egyptians were affiliated with the former regime to cause a division between Egypt and Libya,
Sharif told Azzaman, “This is not true and the Libyan ambassador needs to review past events. When US troops assisted Libyan troops in arresting al-Qaeda member Abu Anas al-Libi, Libyan Prime Minister Ali Zeidan was kidnapped by armed militias in Libya.
However, the operation has failed, because Abu Anas was moved outside the Libyan territories. Under international pressure exerted on the General National Congress, Zeidan was released.
The best evidence is that Abu Obeida Zawi was arrested recently in Egypt, because
he is a member of the Libyan Revolutionaries Operations Room,
which is involved in acts of violence in Egypt and supports the Muslim Brotherhood,
despite claims by Egyptian authorities that his arrest was because his residency expired.
In response, the Libyan Revolutionaries Operations Room kidnapped Egyptian diplomats until the release of Abu Obeida.

May 4, 2014 Libya's parliament swore in a new prime minister supported by Islamists despite a disputed vote Sunday and walkouts from a largely secular bloc,
Despite the protest from a number of non-Islamist parliamentarians, the interim parliament swore in 42-year-old businessman Ahmed Matiq in a rushed televised session headed by the second deputy of parliament, Saleh al-Makhzoum, and member of the Muslim Brotherhood's Justice and Construction Party.
Lawmaker Mohammed Samoud confirmed Matiq, from Libya's third-largest city, Misrata, won.
Matiq, educated in Britain, runs a group of hotels and is involved in construction.
But Mahmoud Salama al-Ghiryani, a lawmaker and supporter of Matiq, said the adjourning of the session was not legal and that most of the members in the house were against it.
Omar al-Hassi, a political science professor from the country's second-largest city of Benghazi, ran against Matiq.
He is backed by the hard-line Islamist bloc in parliament.

The events that took place in the town of Warshefana, between December 19- 29, 2013,
are the best example of the tragedy of blind tribal zeal afflicting Libya.
Islamist tribal militias stormed the Warshefana area between Tripoli and al-Zawiya, 40 kilometers from the capital, with thousands of men armed with heavy, medium, and light weapons, including guns, tanks, armored vehicles, and rocket launchers.
The militias plundered the city, killing 21 people and injuring more than 100.

Maltese eyewitnesses told MaltaToday that on the evening of Sunday 21 August,
some 200 fully-armed rebel fighters shot their way through the gates of the Corinthia-owned luxury residential resort in Janzour in search of the Gaddafis, just one hour after the Bab Al-Aziziya compound had fallen.
One of the tweeters sent out the registration plates of the Chevrolets in which Gaddafi loyalists fled Palm City, while another said that looting was taking place inside the complex during a gun battle with rebels.

ReplyDeleteThen on Sunday, August 21, the sound of automatic rifle fire could be heard
for up to half an hour
A few days ago I passed under the bullet-scarred archway at the entrance to its headquarters in Tripoli that stands topped with a giant eagle, the brigade’s symbol.
Targeted heavily by Nato’s war planes, the main command buildings that sit within this fortress compound the size of a small town lie smashed by hi-tech bombs.
But nearby there were other more visceral secrets that the Khamis Brigade had tried to hide
.
Rebae Fereg Kashot lives only a few hundred yards from the Khamis HQ.
Every day during the breaking of the Ramadan fast he would take dinner to an old man
who lived right next to a compound that sat behind the headquarters.
That same old man had begun to tell him of what he was hearing and seeing.
“He said he heard shooting every night, and people screaming,” Kashot recalls.
Then on Sunday, August 21, the sound of automatic rifle fire could be heard
for up to half an hour.
Kashot himself approached the compound but was stopped by a soldier
who he described as one of Gaddafi’s mercenaries from the West African country of Chad.
In the days that followed, he and other local people uncovered the terrible evidence inside the compound of one of the worst war crimes to date during this six-month Libyan uprising.
“Can you smell it?” asks Kashot. “Look at these flies.

Sep 29, 2014 Rival Libyan lawmakers held talks brokered by a United Nations envoy
on Monday, in the first attempt to bridge the gap between warring groups that left the North African nation torn between two governments and parliaments.At a press conference held in western city of Ghadamis, Bernardino Leon said the goal of the talks is to reach a "complete ceasefire". He described Monday's round of talks as "historic" and said that the two parties were sitting together "in brotherly atmosphere" and engaging to "overcome their differences through a political dialogue”.
The talks included lawmakers from the two parliaments.
Libya witnessed a spasm of violence this summer when militias mainly from the western city of Misrata and groups allied to Islamists swept through the capital
Leon said that the two sides agreed to discuss airports which have been closed
and work towards opening all of them.

On Saturday, a force allied to the Tripoli-based government, whose opponents say has links to Islamists, moved along the coast to seize eastern oil facilities and fight troops of former general Khalifa Haftar loyal to Thinni.
Clashes continued on Sunday with both sides claiming progress as Thinni's forces sent jets to bomb the rival force. Al Nabaa television showed troops loyal to Tripoli loading tanks and artillery guns.
National Oil Corp, headquartered in Tripoli, shut down production at the Es Sider and Ras Lanuf ports, whose fields had produced some 350,000 barrels a day, or more than half of the country's crude output. Most staff left when the state firm declared force majeure for both ports.
Some 800 km to the west, near the Tunisian border, jet fighters under Thinni's command bombed forces loyal to the Tripoli government while Zintani tribesmen - his local allies - tried to take the Ras Jdir border crossing to Tunisia.

Libya: 23 years in prison for a crime Saleh Hmeed never committed
http://en.alkarama.org/libya/press-releases/667-libya-23-years-in-prison-for-a-crime-saleh-hmeed-never-committed
By Feb. 15 of last year, about a month into the uprising, the doors at most of the country’s prisons and jails began to swing open, allowing thousands of criminals to flee.
According to government officials, about 26,000 criminals — political prisoners were kept in separate facilities and remained in lockdown — were serving time when the escapes began.
Almost 200 of those escapees were facing the death penalty for serious crimes, including murder.
“There was panic inside and outside the prisons,” said Dya Adin Badi,
who, at the outset of protests last year was in charge of seven detention facilities stretching from Ras Lanuf through Sirte to Misrata.
“The guards had fled. There was no security, no staff.
We didn’t want a riot on our hands.”
Badi said angry crowds began to form outside his prisons.
Relatives began demanding the release of loved ones, many of whom,
Badi said, were facing false or excessive sentences.
Hundreds joined the rebel frontlines.
Several climbed the ranks to become commanders.
Many were killed in battle. Others simply fled, their whereabouts unknown.

Since the end of the revolution, both ex-rebel militias and police have also administered their own form of justice, also in a “climate of impunity.” While members of Gaddafi forces are hunted down and imprisoned — so far without formal charges or access to legal aid — those who commit offenses from within the revolutionary forces continue to go unpunished.

The formation of "Shura Council of the Mujahedeen of Darna" was announced on Friday
to include various Jihadist fighters against any attacks of the army and forces of major general Khalifa Haftar, local media reported on Saturday.
The Islamist militants, including Ansar al-Sharia militia, announced the formation of the "Shura Council of the Benghazi rebels" to fight Haftar's forces after the army commander announced the military operation "Libyan Dignity" on May 16, which he said aims to eradicate "terrorism from the country."
Qatar funneled much of its aid through Ali al-Sallabi, say NTC-allied officials.
They say the cleric's aid network, manned with his associates, allowed affiliated militias to receive the lion's share of both guns and money.

Islamist-allied militias from the western city of Misrata clashed with an eastern militia
that holds a major oil terminal on Saturday, in violence that killed at least two people, Libyan officials said.
The officials say the Tripoli-based government — backed by Misrata militias and Islamist factions — ordered its forces to "liberate" the Sidra terminal.
The officials said that aircraft affiliated to Omar al-Hassi's rival government
carried airstrikes targeting an air base in the central city of Sirte but caused no major casualties.
An aide to al-Hassi, the Tripoli-based prime minister, said that the assault on Sidra is the beginning of a wider offensive called "Sunrise."
Al-Hassi's allied militias launched an earlier offensive called "Libya Dawn" in Tripoli to take control of the capital and its airport.

Eastern Libya has declared an autonomous regional government with an official ceremony, challenging the country's weak central government that failed to assume unifying power over rebels and various tribes since the 2011 war toppled Muammar Gaddafi.
Leaders of an autonomy movement met on Sunday in the small town of Ajdabiya
to launch the government under the name of Barqa, or Cyrenaica as it is also known, supporters said.
A pro-federalist television station showed more than 20 ministers taking the oath
at a podium decorated with a Cyrenaica flag.
They were joined by the tribal leader Ibrahim Jathran, the former head of Libya's Petroleum Protection Force in charge of guarding oil facilities, who defected in the summer and seized the biggest ports Ras Lanuf and Es-Sider with his troops.
Jathran was standing next to the self-declared Prime Minister Abd-Rabbo al-Barassi, a defected air force commander.
Tue Dec 16, 2014
DeleteOn Monday, a force allied to the rival assembly based in Tripoli, the General National Congress (GNC), moved to the east
to try seize the Es Sider and Ras Lanuf oil ports.
Both terminals have closed, drying exports of an estimated 300,000 barrels a day of oil.
The recognized government, forced to work out of the east since losing control of Tripoli in August, launched more air strikes on the rival forces positioned near Es Sider, eastern officials said.
They also said the rival force had for the first time used a jet to support its troops, though its spokesman Ismail al-Shukri denied this.
"We confirm the campaign will continue," Shukri told reporters, adding that oil facilities would not be harmed.
GNC spokesman Omar Hmeidan said the assembly was supporting the U.N. talks but said the venue needed to change and talks should reflect that the GNC was the legitimate body.
"Members of the GNC will attend the talks as representatives of the legislative body," he said, proposing to hold the next round in the southern town of Hun.
The House of Representatives, the legislature aligned with recognized Prime Minister Abdullah al-Thinni, said in a statement it was supporting the U.N.-led dialogue but rejected talks with GNC members and its armed factions.

Fighting continues around the key cities of Ras Lanuf and Sidra after the start
Deleteon Saturday of an offensive by the Libya Dawn camp dubbed ‘Operation Sunrise for the Liberation of Oil Ports‘.
The operation is aimed at dislodging federalist and Tubruq-aligned forces
from key oil sites in Eastern Libya and the Tripoli-based establishment maintains it is legitimated by a 2013 GNC-issued order to liberate the then federalist-blockaded ports.
On Saturday, Libya Dawn forces were repelled for the most part by Operation Dignity airstrikes targeting them around the town of Bin Jawad, an urban centre located approximately 30 kilometres to the West of Sidra on the costal road.
On Sunday, however, fighting involved ground forces on both sides and engulfed oil terminal facilities as well. In particular, reports emerged of Grad rockets being fired towards Sidra oil port while fighters from Operation Sunrise arrived at one point within half kilometer from it before being repelled by further airstrikes. As a result of this, Sidra’s oil port shut down its operations.

Libya’s Audit Bureau announced last week that transactions from the CBL
to ministries and public companies would come under new restrictions.
The CBL is now only authorised to pay for public sector salaries and expenses below 200,000 Libyan dinars ($163,750).
“The new regulations are in response to a crisis over the CBL’s assets, with the rival assemblies – the HoR and revived GNC – vying for control,” reported Libya Monitor.
The Audit Bureau is an independent body based in Tripoli that is answerable to the “legislative branch”,
according to MEE’s Libyan source, who said their decision pointed to increased restrictions on the HoR.
“The Audit Bureau has the power to block any project expenditures by government entities,” they said.
“If the coordinate with the CBL, as they appear to be, they could create another layer of resistance to government expenditure, as spending has to clear the CBL accounts and seek approval by the bureau.”

as a Muslim Brotherhood one.
He added that the army confirmed information that a Muslim Brotherhood figure by the name Ahmed Al-Zuway, who has a tribal links in Sudan, is overseeing the process of bringing in arms and personnel from Sudan to Kufra in cars and trucks.
“The process of the transfer of arms and personnel from Sudan to Libya has taken in the last period a remarkable development, as planes were observed in the skies of the Sahara, coming from Sudan, in an effort to overthrow the city of Benghazi, to which hundreds of extremist groups from Misrata and Derna are flowing, in an effort to control it in favour of extremist groups."

In mid February, Libyan dissident Najla Aburrahman begged Western media to pay attention to the bloodbath unfolding in her country. "If the Libyan protesters are ignored," she wrote, "the fear is that [Libyan dictator Moammar] Qaddafi—a man who appears to care little what the rest of the world thinks of him—will be able to seal the country off
from foreign observers, and ruthlessly crush any uprising before it even has a chance to begin."

"I really fear vigilante justice and retribution and attacks by civilians against other civilians," said Richard Sollom, deputy director of Physicians for Human Rights,
who is back from a June fact-finding mission in Misrata, Libya.
Sollom said Monday that his Boston-based group knew of about 500 Darfuris "who are desperately trying to get out of Libya. They have no money, they are basically homeless because they are from Darfur, and they very much fear for their lives because of the color of their skin."
Guest workers from Sudan, Chad, Darfur and other sub-Saharan African locales have been targeted in part because Gadhafi did hire foreign African mercenaries, Sollom said.
New York-based Human Rights Watch said Sunday that the evidence it has collected so far "strongly suggests that (Moammar Gadhafi's) government forces went on a spate of arbitrary killing as Tripoli was falling."

Impunity was a serious problem. The scarcely functioning criminal courts struggled to try abusive Qadhafi-era officials, but generally skirted the pressing problem of abuses during the year by post-Qadhafi militias, in part because of militia intimidation of judges.
When authorities did attempt to conduct trials, threats and acts of violence often influenced and curtailed judicial proceedings.
Aside from adopting but not yet implementing legislation to provide a new legal framework and sponsoring dialogues on its implementation throughout the country, the government did not take concrete steps by year's end to advance transitional justice.
There were rare investigations and still fewer prosecutions of those believed to have committed abuses.

reported on a secret meeting in Algiers between two iconic Libyan leaders.
These are Ali Sallabi, a theologist known for his clerical views, presently the spiritual father of the Al-Fajr Islamist coalition,
and Mahmoud Jibril, the leader of so-called secular coalition, the National Forces Alliance,
NFA. Judging by Mahmoud Jibril’s statements, NFA allegedly supports the new Libyan government in Tobruk.

The meeting between the two leaders was preceded by a series of consultations
between Mahmoud Jibril and Mustapha Nouh, the Islamist deputy intelligence chief.
Seemingly, conditions of a possible compromise were discussed.
The possibility of Ali Sallabi’s trip to Algeria was most likely discussed by the Islamist leaders in Tripoli and the trip was probably authorized by their military leader, Abdelhakim Belhadj.

and chose war

In the meantime, France has been stepping up its rhetoric about the presence of terrorist elements in southern Libya. France has also sent reinforcements to Niger and Chad, and refurbished an old military base at Madama, 100 km from the border with Libya, while putting pressure on Chadian President to send forces to Libya to fight alongside the Tabu against the Tuareg. Recently, French Defense Minister Le Drian visited Nigel and before it Chad, calling explicitly for international action against terrorism in Libya.
DeleteSo the question that begs itself here is this: What is there in the Libyan south that France wants so badly?
The Ubari region, the ancestral home of the Tuareg, floats on top of a sea of black gold. The region has many oil wells that the Gaddafi regime had closed down to preserve for future generations, and there are huge “virgin” oil reserves there ready for the taking. The Tibesti Mountains, meanwhile, the land of the Tabu tribes on the border between Libya and Chad, also sit on thousands of tons of gold and uranium.
Then, perhaps, France’s share will be in the Libyan south. If Paris decides to go into southern Libya, it would be hitting more than one bird with just one stone: Energy sources in southern Libya will be in its hands, and the old Libyan-Chadian dispute over the Aouzou Strip will be rekindled, guaranteeing France a foothold in the area. More importantly, France will become a key player in sub-Saharan African countries, after a period of declining French influence in favor of the United States and China.

I suppose this Charlie Hebdo war Hollande has declared will have some reason to take over / secure just that part of up-for-grabs Libya.

French troops stationed in Mali could also be redeployed to Libya. According to France’s Defense Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian, a new “terrorist hotbed” has developed which is threatening the “sovereignty” of the US-NATO supported Libyan government:

A high-ranking official in the Libyan government said that France intends to establish
a military base in the south of Libya.
An agreement in this regard was made between the Prime Minister Ali Zeidan and the French government on the sidelines of the forum Friends of Libya, which was held in Paris earlier this month, according to the same source.

Libya was a test case. The first war actually commanded by Africom, it proved remarkably successful – a significant regional power was destroyed without the loss of a single US or European soldier.
ReplyDeleteBut the significance of this war for Africom went much deeper than that for, in taking out Muammar Gaddafi, Africom had actually eliminated the project's fiercest adversary.

AFRICOM was separated by Washington’s strategists in 2008
as an independent military structure “to organise an effective war on terror,
to provide security for American economic interests in the region,
and to prevent preferential access by other countries to
the continent’s natural resources, in particular China, India, Japan, or Russia.”

told French radio station France Culture that it was responsible for the diffusion of lies
and war propaganda on behalf of Nato throughout the war.
Graeff also warned the broadcasters that such disinformation could only work on the minds of serfs but not in a country of free minds.
