Benghazi, cradle of the 2011 uprising that toppled dictator Muammar Qadaffy ...Proof that a madman with money will be politely received for at least 42 years until his people get tired of him and kill him... , has been rocked by a wave of attacks targeting police and army officers. Also on Wednesday, army Colonel Issam al-Houidi was maimed in a murder attempt near Derna east of Benghazi, the official LANA news agency reported, adding his life was not in danger. Security forces also said they found and defused late Tuesday an bomb in the Benghazi medical center, saying it could have been detonated by remote control.
