10:05 am
a volatile country. people have way too much faith in the n t c which is quite obviously not in control of the situation on the ground in libya at the moment and in fact you can see the tension between the entities the command and some of the more islamist led groups on the ground and in fact if you see some of the fighters on the ground they have the characteristics of islamist fighters that had a long kind of history of from afghanistan onwards so this illusion that the entity has full control on the ground is not actually correct and i would say that the events that we are seeing them could be personal but that does put be the normal run of wars but maybe another party in libya could have presented their evolution of the assassination of the legitimate aspirations for change that is that and then in p.c. that still has a lot of former. associates and cronies within it so that's really the nub of the
