Libya arrests 50 after US envoyÂ’s killing
2012-09-17
Libyan authorities have arrested about 50 people after last weekÂ’s killing of US ambassador Chris Stevens in a mob attack in the city of Benghazi, LibyaÂ’s parliament chief said Sunday, saying it was planned by foreigners.

‘The number reached about 50,’ Mohammed Al Megaryef, president of the Libyan National Congress, told CBS News in an interview.
"Round up the usual suspects!"
Stevens and three other Americans were killed on Tuesday when suspected militants fired on the US consulate in the eastern Libyan city with rocket-propelled grenades and set it ablaze.

Megaryef said ‘a few’ of those who joined in the attack were foreigners, who had entered Libya ‘from different directions, some of them definitely from Mali and Algeria.’

‘The others are affiliates and maybe sympathizers,’ he added.

Megaryef said the government has learned the attack was not the result of a spontaneous outburst of anger over a US-made anti-Islam movie which has triggered sometimes deadly protests in the Arab and Muslim world.

‘It was planned, definitely, it was planned by foreigners, by people who entered the country a few months ago. And they were planning this criminal act since their arrival,’ he told CBS.
Gee, that's not what Ambassador Rice said...
Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula has said in a statement the attack was in revenge for the killing of the terror networkÂ’s deputy leader Shaikh Abu Yahya Al Libi in a drone strike in June.
Gee, that's not what Ambassador Rice said...

"round up the usual suspects", and make sure a lot of them try to escape or resist. We need the money and the kaffirs will buy any BS at this point.
