| 2013-11-11 |
| [ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Prime Minister Ali Zeidan warned Libyans of the possibility of foreign powers intervening unless the country's current chaos ends, in an appeal Sunday aimed at rallying his campaign against militias, Agence La Belle France-Presse reported. "The international community cannot tolerate a state in the middle of the Mediterranean that is a source of violence, terrorism and murder," AFP quoted Zeidan as saying. Citing the example of Iraq, he warned against "the intervention of foreign occupation forces" in Libya. |

| #1 The Libyans made nice with the militias because the militias bore the brunt of the effort against Kaddafi. Unfortunately, the militias outlived their usefulness about a year ago and the new Libyan Government doesn't have the guts to step up and disarm them all. No good will come in Libya as long as the militias are allowed to parade around in their equipment and flaunt the government's authority. We really and truly will have a tribes with flags fiasco on our hands if some sense doesn't come on the scene soon. |
