Libyan Rebel Leader Admits Links To “Al Qaeda” Fighters

There are all sorts of opinions on that matter. And regardless of who makes up the Libyan opposition, the most organized groups are most likely to seize power. But here is some of what we know:

–the rebel’s council (National Transitional Council–NTC) wants Islamic law to be “a source” of legislation in the new Libya. What does this mean? Some believe it means Shariah law is coming to Tripoli. Others contend that this “formulation is fairly standard in the constitutions of Muslim majority states,” and is no big deal. But remember, fanatics tend to rise to the top in these sort of situations. Moderates are usually not willing to do what it takes to eliminate their opponents and competitors. Whoever rises to the to won’t need Western aid. They will have plenty of energy revenue to stay in power.....

–the rebel’s fighting forces include hardened Islamists and anti-American extremists who fought against U.S. forces in Afghanistan and Iraq. Rebel commanders admit that some of their fighters have al-Qaeda links.The fighting force is an outgrowth of a group called Islamic Libya Fighting Group, which is a Libyan “mujahadeen force.” Yes, that’s right. We have been supporting a movement that includes former Taliban and Iraqi fighters. Those who think these sort of fighters can’t be “bought off” don’t understand or respect extremist ideologies. Fanatics can’t be “bought off.” What makes them fanatics is precisely the fact that they are willing to give up lives of relative peace and go live in a cave somewhere to fight “infidels” in Afghanistan. Money is not important to them.

The assassination of the chief Libyan rebel commander underscores the murky nature of the rebel opposition group and casts fresh doubts over its ability to overthrow the Gaddafi regime.

General Abdul Fattah Younes, who been summoned to the Libyan opposition capital of Benghazi by the ruling Transitional National Council (TNC) for supposed questioning about military operations, was murdered there last week along with two other military officials.....

Specifically, the killing of Younes comes at time when the TNC — having recently been sanctioned as Libya’s legitimate ruling government by 40 nations, including the United States, France and England — now stands to receive over $30 billion of Gadaffi regime funds currently frozen in Western banks.

The sudden influx of such vast sums of money have, according to one Mideast expert, only served to intensify the inner divisions within the TNC, with each faction jockeying for control to “secure the status of being the only legitimate force to lead the country in the future.”

I thought that too, they don't look quite normal. Or is it, they look too normal?

Nice hair cut. Is that an electric razor in his hand because how does he keep his beard so well trimmed?

and this picture I saw yesterday and it made me laugh

Does the guy with the bandana always hold his gun so high up? Interesting how the camera man seems to have no fear of basically standing in front of the rebels as they are supposedly firing at the enemy. Is this a real war photo or a photo op? Wouldn't it be smarter for them to be standing behind their expensive looking car? Or if they didn't want bullet holes in their VW jetta maybe they could hide behind the van, why damage such a nice car?
