| IS Claims Libya Suicide Attack, Declares War on Key Militia |
| 2015-06-01 |
| [AnNahar] The Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group on Sunday declared "war" on the powerful Fajr Libya militia alliance that controls Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... and claimed a suicide kaboom that killed five of its fighters. |

| #2 Well this is special. Fajr Libya is aligned with the Muslim Bruderbund and now we have ISIS wanting to duke it out with them. Then we have Fajr Libya wanting to fight with the LNA who is fighting Ansar al Sharia, which has pledged allegiance to ISIS. So is this whole Charlie foxtrot falling around shia/sunni divisions or what. The longer they fight in Libya the less I understand who is who. Maybe Old Spook can help??? |
