| Misratan forces 'await results of negotiations' with IS in Sirte |
| 2015-02-20 |
| [Libya Herald] Misrata's Brigade 166 and other forces sent to Sirte to retake the town from Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... (IS) forces now controlling it are awaiting the outcome of negotiations between IS and local tribal elders, according to a well-placed Misratan source. The objective of the talks is to get IS to leave the town and go to Nawfaliya, the source said . . . Rest of it's behind the paywall. |
