Libya: Islamist militia bases stormed in Benghazi

Libya: Islamist militia bases stormed in Benghazi

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-19680785

"The militia suspected of killing the US ambassador to Libya nearly two weeks ago has been driven out of its base in the eastern city of Benghazi.

Police and protesters stormed the HQ of the Islamist group Ansar al-Sharia.

The HQ of the Sahaty Brigade, said to have official backing, was also stormed. At least nine people were killed there, another died elsewhere....................."

I do like reading this story.

I have a feeling a threat of no more foreign aid inspired the government to foment this action...

Make Obama look bad in an election year?
No bueno por chit...
