Dr. Moussa Ibrahim on the Scene, 2015

January 18, 2015

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KdwJcqA-AhI
Dr Moussa Ibrahim's first public address since Nato's War on Libya in 2011
Published on Jan 17, 2015
Description: On Mon 12 Jan 2015 in Committee Room 15 in the Houses of Parliament Dr Moussa Ibrahim addresses the event 'Libya: Nato's Untold Story' organised by the Tricontinental Anti-Imperialist Platform. This is the first time Dr Ibrahim has addressed the public and media in english since his advocacy for justice for Libya as Libyan Jamahiryan government spokesperson through the Nato war of aggression against Libya in 2011.


He speaks on behalf of the Libyan National Popular Movement. He's personally in Belin. It can go like that. I like Dr. Ibrahim (see here and here), and will tend to support a movement he's speaking for. I'll try to watch the whole thing soon. Just had to get this up quick once I saw it.

    who is involved in the assassination of Chokri Belaid

    Zaoui also nominated Abu Ayaz, leader of Ansar al-Sharia (Tunisia), who is currently in Libya.

    Abu Ayaz has strong links to Libyan terrorist groups and warlords,
    and had helped them recruit fighters during the Libyan uprising
    and at the start of the conflict in Syria.

    Terrorists came from Libya
    http://networkedblogs.com/HiFB3

    Algerian officials have been complaining for days now that the terrorists in Algeria slipped in from Libya. I noticed that US media did not report that probably because it embarrasses them to note that the terrorists were in fact recipients of Western largesse during the NATO war on Libya.

    More recently, reports confirm that AQIM has received weapons from the Libya Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG).

    Forces loyal to the Tripoli government, sent to Sirte from the western city of Misrata,
    have clashed several times with the militants and had set up checkpoints near the power station.

    The region east of Sirte has been a battlefield since December
    when a force loyal to Libya Dawn tried to seize Libya’s biggest oil ports,

    Al Sider and Ras Lanuf, but both remain under the control of forces
    loyal to the recognised Prime Minister Abdullah al-Thinni.

    http://gulfnews.com/news/mena/libya/daesh-militants-kill-five-pro-tripoli-government-fighters-1.1478925

    Militants loyal to Daesh, the group which controls much of Syria and Iraq,
    have exploited the turmoil by expanding in eastern and central Libya in recent months.
    They have taken over government offices, universities and a radio station in Sirte in the last few weeks.



    25 march 2015 Operation Sunrise (Shorouq)

    A suicide bomber has killed five members of Operation Sunrise (Shorouq) at a checkpoint
    at the steam power station outside Sirte, according to a military source in the area.
    The attack is said to have taken place late this morning.
    So far there are no details, although IS is suspected.

    Last week, it announced that there would be an onslaught of suicide and car bombings
    against Libya Dawn and Misrata which it accused of being “enemies of God”.

    Operation Sunrise, set up by Libya Dawn to take the eastern oil fields and terminals
    has a large Misratan input.

    Last December, 14 guards protecting the town’s Al-Khaleej (Gulf) Power Station,
    which is still under construction, were murdered in an attack.

    The perpetrators have never been discovered
    although at the time Operation Sunrise forces were blamed.
    The dead men were said to have been from the same tribe as General Khalifa Hafter.

    Misrata forces have been literally trapped in Ben Jawad for the last month,
    pinned down between the rival forces led by General Khalifa Haftar on one side
    and ISIS on the other.

    Last December, Misrata, allied with the Tripoli-based National Congress
    which was reinstated after the Supreme Court invalidated the parliamentary elections

    held in June as illegitimate, launched the Sharooq operation, “English sunset,”

    to take control over the oil terminals controlled

    by federalist forces and General Haftar,

    lined up with the rival parliament sheltered in the far eastern town of Tubruq,
    which considers the Supreme court’s verdict invalid because it was allegedly
    handed down under duress.

    “ISIS men have been grouping there for months, but that day they openly came out,”
    a member of Misrata intelligence told The Media Line.

    http://www.themedialine.org/news/news_detail.asp?NewsID=42081

    The followers of the caliphate had slowly infiltrated the hometown
    of former Libyan strongman Muammar Qaddafi from the beginning of 2014,

    when the head of the Salafi group Ansar Al Sharia, Attir Ahmed, was killed in battle.

  3. Around 500 Isis fighters are in Sirte.

    Their identities are unknown because of the black masks they wear.

    As well as the conference centre, they hold a hotel and the flour mill.
    A few hundred metres away from the mill, Misrata forces take their coffee in a roadside café.

    Misrata, Libya’s third-largest city located to the east of Tripoli, is the power base of the Libya Dawn faction
    which seized power in Tripoli in August.

    Ibrahim Ben Rajab, head of the Misrata Military Council, said that they had hoped other cities would contribute
    more forces to Brigade 166, to avoid the risk that Misrata would be subjected to a retaliatory campaign by Isis.

    Remarkably, among those transited from Jordan to Syria were especially
    the followers of the leader of "Al-Qaeda" in Iraq,
    Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, who was killed in 2006.


    Ajaj al-Saqr, a general who had served under Gaddafi and was loyal to him until the end, was among those injured. ( and never leaves an internet trace)
    He had been living in exile in Egypt and is believed to have returned to Sirte recently.

    and : orange jumpsuits of Egyptian Christians kidnapped from Surt

    A recent video depicting the beheadings of Egyptian Christians kidnapped from Surt appeared

    to have been taped on the Libyan shoreline,
    but it also featured
    the parent group’s signature audiovisual sophistication, orange jumpsuits and ceremonial knives.
    http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/16/world/middleeast/islamic-state-video-beheadings-of-21-egyptian-christians.html



    Fighters under the banner of the Tripolitania Province of the Islamic State

    announced last month that they were holding about 20 Egyptian Christians, or Copts.

    A similar number of Egyptian Christians in Libya seeking work
    had disappeared in the mid-coastal city of Surt.
    http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/11/world/africa/isis-seizes-opportunity-in-libyas-turmoil.html?_r=0

    The coalition that sent Mr. Hassan, which is known as Libya Dawn
    and opposes General Hifter, includes some Islamic extremist groups
    in the eastern cities of Benghazi, Darnah and possibly elsewhere.

    Its supporters often try to argue that the Islamic State fighters in Surt are merely a front
    for Qaddafi loyalists or supporters of General Hifter.

  5. This organization, headed by lt. col. Abdallah Sanussi al Migrahi, is divided between domestic and foreign security services. Sanussi heads external security,

    with Abdul Salam Zadma as his deputy (external operations and fundamentalist movements).

    Domestic security is headed by the justice and general security minister,
    Mohamed Maumud al Hijazi.

    Number two man is transport minister Ezzedin al Inchiri
    and number three is Suleiman Ashiri, who is believed to have organized
    the kidnapping of the ex foreign minister Mahmud Kikkhia in Cairo in December, 1994.

    Mohammed Zadma of the military police in Sirte, Libya said : Quiet prevail in the city
    and its suburbs since Tuesday morning.

    He added that the Dawn forces organize their ranks to break
    into Nofaliya area (oil areas 120 km east of Sirte and 70 km west of Bin Jawad, ),

    " Where Pockets of hard-line elements loyal to the organization Daash resides."

    according to Zadma the 11 buried Daash elements are another than the 23 bodies
    we found on the battlefield in Hroah area who were delivered to the Red Crescent
    in the city of Misrata.

    Both sides facing each other near the town of Ben Jawad across a front line
    littered with tank shells and bomb craters are made up of former rebels who fought
    together to oust Gaddafi but are now fighting each other
    over who owns the 2011 uprising.

    22 January, 2015
    The forces of Libya Dawn, which are fighting in western Libya, and the forces of Operation Sunrise, fighting in the area of the oil ports and petroleum crescent in central Libya,
    were one step ahead of Operation Dignity.
    They announced a ceasefire only hours after the first round of talks in Geneva ad ended, according to a press statement by the official spokesman for the Libya Shield forces
    in the central zone, Ahmed Hadiya.
    Nevertheless, Libyan sources close to Libya Dawn told the Weekly that Hadiya is close
    to one of the members of parliament who is boycotting the parliamentary sessions in Tobruk,

    the business magnate Fathy Bashagha, and that Hadiya issued the statement to the press on the basis of instructions from Bashagha, without first referring to
    the field commanders of the Libya Dawn and Operation Sunrise forces.
