| Ghargour carnage makes new friends of old enemies |
| 2013-11-18 |
| [Libya Herald] Historic divisions between the people of Wirshifana and Zawia appear to have been put aside, at least temporarily, following the Bloody Friday massacre in Gharghour. In the wake of the carnage, elders from both communities met on Saturday to investigate ways of jointly sending help to Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... Those present at the meeting agreed to send military support to Tajoura to help combat any attack on the capital by Misratan forces. It is the first time since the 17 February Revolution that both sides have come together and agreed on something. On the contrary, in the two years since the revolution ended there have been numerous deadly festivities between them. In Bani Walid too, residents gathered to donate blood following the massacre. |
