#1 ...Interestingly, Derna seems to have been a haven for maniacs and fruit loops of all kinds for quite some time. During the time of the Deys of Tripoli, Derna was where any number of conspirators hung out, and after that the odd holy man (and they were all pretty odd) would pop up there to preach revival and jihad (not necessarily in that order). And finally, during more recent unpleasantness, US Army intel has captured paperwork that indicates that if you need religiously deranged killers, Derna's the place. I'd say that it must be something in the water, but they don't seem to have much water.
