Dignity Operation cleric says Third Force fighters are ‘infidels’ and must be crucified
2017-04-21
[Libya Observer] A notorious Dignity Operation holy man has labeled fighters of the Third Force, who are fighting the operation’s forces in Sabha, "unbelievers" who must be killed.

Abu Abdul-Rahman al-Makki, who is staying in Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
, said Dignity Operation fighters in Brak Shati airbase are "Mujahedeen" and those against them in Taminhint airbase are "Kharijites."

The Third Force is linked to the UN-installed Presidency Council and is made up of brigades from the city of Misrata.

"They say the Third Force, the Government of National Accord, we are Moslems... these are lies" he said in an audio recording from Mecca posted on social media on Monday.

He urged Dignity Operation forces to kill and crucify the "Kharijites" and show no mercy to them.

He also urged the people of south Libya to join Dignity Operation, reminding them of their ancestors’ battles against the Italian occupiers in 1911.

Several radical groups are fighting alongside Dignity Operation in Benghazi and Sabha.

Dignity Operation uses terms to brand opponents such as al-Qaeda, Moslem Brüderbund and Libyan Fighting Group in order to win local and international approval. According to Dignity Operation, all opponents are bully boyz and Kharijites.

#1  Kharijites opposed Ali who was the son-in-law to Mohammud. They developed the concept of declaring opponents subject to immediate extrajudicial execution because the opponents were, by being opponents, apostates or heretics.

The third force has done some of this latter execution.
