#1 Khalifa Haftar’s self-declared army

Classic 'enemy of my enemy' is what passes for fraternity in the muslim world.

While the Madkhali salafists working for Haftar can be muzzled later, the hard core murderous GNA, harbors militias backed by ISIS to the Muslim Brotherhood. If something is backed by the UN, you can pretty much take it for granted some islamist motherfucker benefits from it.

Haftar uses the madkhalis to counter political islamic groups like Ansar al-Sharia and the MB. Haftar dissolved the Madkhali brigade (called the Tawhid Brigade) incorporating them into his military divisions like the 302 Saaiqa Special Forces.

But it's true, there is the possibility of Salafi jihadism — especially ISIS and al-Qaeda—infiltrating Madkhali Salafist groups, which is easy in a war torn country and an armed society with no real state presence.

#5 That was done by the salafi riff-raff he has to ally with. The Al-kani tribal groups.

#8 90 businesses owned by Indians were uprooted when Ghaddafi was ousted. Several major Indian companies are invested in infrastructure, Oil and Gas, Education in Libya.

If the frothing mullahs come to power, it is reduced to shit. Only if Haftar manages to thwart everyone including the UN backed GNA, does the place have a chance at being a viable economy. If Libya goes to shit, the rest of the WANA (west Asia North Africa ) region is endangered. Where corporate India has more investments and tie-ups. Gas networks to heavy machinery, these businesses will one day be at the mercy of muslim extortionists backed by theocratic regimes, if we don't assist those fighting them to maintain a modicum of constitutionality.
