Turkey is sending Syrian rebel force to fight Haftar in Libya

Large contingents of Syrian Turkman rebel militias are being transferred to Libya by Turkish airlift and sealift to help the Tripoli government repel the assault on the capital by Gen. Khalifa Haftar’s Libyan National Army, DEBKAfile’s military sources report. The LNA has just broken through the government’s defense lines and is driving toward the center of Tripoli. Haftar is backed by Russia, Egypt and the UAE. Sources in Syria and Turkey disclose that the rebel Syrian units heading for Libya are the Sultan Murad Brigade and the Faylaq al-Sham, most of whose fighters belong to the Syrian Muslim Brotherhood.  This is the first time that combatants from Syria’s civil war are participating in the conflict of a fellow Arab nation.

      Don’t be surprised it’s always been that way read the history of Islam, when no one to kill they turn on them selves like a bunch zombies, it’s sad but true.

    Total Turmoil is now within Libya as Islamists Fighting Islamists with many Western Arms Merchants in between? It is the opposite of Iran’s Plan that Exports Violence using Persian People Oil Revenues, this more about Islamists outside of Libya seeking Power Positions to take over Libyan Oil Revenues for a Piece of Oil Pie!

    i always challenge any one in the M.E to show me where in the Middle East does an Arab enjoy the best life prospects, best education, best health care, best job opportunity, best political representation, best human rights………. other than Israel. So far no one could answer me, in fact some Arabs agreed with me, while in shock. Turkey has joined the M.E prevailing death and win-lose mentality since some time now. Mr. Erdogan is trying to be the Ottoman Sultan again……….
