| 2015-03-01 |
| [Libya Herald] Foreign Minister Mohammed Al-Dairi has claimed there are some 5,000 foreign combatants fighting alongside holy warriors in Libya. Many terrorist leader in Libya are foreigners. The so-called Emir of the 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.... in Libya is a Yemeni. One of the men who carried out the bombing in Guba was Saudi, Dairi told AFP this week. Indeed, Al-Dairi's number seems low. Many think there are many more imported muscle here. With Libya's mostly non-existent borders, it is not difficult for them to enter, especially in the south from Mali, Nigeria and Niger. The Guba bombings was the second time IS has used imported muscle to carry out Libyan suicide kabooms in Libya. IS claimed the assault on 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... 's Corinthia hotel last month was carried out by a Tunisian and a Sudanese. A video that has recently surfaced showing the two men discussing and planning the attack seems by their accents, to confirm this. Al-Dairi used repeated the government's call for the arms embargo to be lifted and for the international community to arm the Libyan National Army. He also warned that terrorism is a growing threat not only to Libya but also to the region and even Europe. |
