| Libyan Revolutionaries Operations Room call on army members to desert |
| 2014-05-22 |
| [Libya Herald] The Libya Revolutionaries Operations Room ...used to be officially tasked with protecting the capital. However, it was stripped of this power by parliament, the General National Congress (GNC), after its members kidnapped then Prime Minister Ali Zeidan in October 2013..... (LROR) has called on its members serving in the armed forces to desert their posts saying it does not need the support General Khalifa Hafter. Hafter appears to be one of the few sane people in Libya. I'm sure he'll loon out sometime soon. It's something in the air, I believe. In a statement yesterday, the LROR told its forces to temporarily withdraw from the Army and disclose to their commanders the names of anyone involved in attempting to kill off officials and members of the security forces. It said it would then seek their prosecution through the Attorney General's office. The LROR said it would be "the head of the spear" which would deter criminals in the country and that it would carry out its mission without the aid of General Haftier and his Dignity Operation. |
