[Maren Cronsnest ]http://breakingnews.sy/en/article/6432.html
Units of Syrian Army have stormed HQ for a group of snipers that has a foothold in the area of al-Saied Ali in Aleppo.
In an Exclusive statement to Breaking News Network, a military source has revealed that ‘the’ Libyan sniper, known as Sam, has been among the snipers group.
The source indicated that the Libyan sniper may have been injured, ahead being besieged with his snipers’ comrades in the area’s southern sides.
The source confirmed that there’s no choice for the snipers, either to surrender or fight to death.
The sniper, from Irish breeds, had participated in the civil tribal war of Libya last year, where he decided to come to the front of Syria, train and organize the fighters of Syrian opposition.
The Libyan Sam is originally named Husam al-Najar, from a Libyan father and Irish mother.

= Extradition of Abdullah al-Senussi is a blow to international justice[Guardian]
The extradition of Abdullah al-Senussi, Gaddafi's spy master, from Mauritania for trial in Tripoli is a blow to international justice – and to the government's pretended support for it. Although one of the worst men left in the world, Senussi should have been tried, first and fairly, at the international criminal court (ICC) which indicted him last year.
Afterwards, there are claims from France (where he was convicted in absentia for organising the bombing of a UTA passenger plane) and he should face questioning over his role in Lockerbie. Instead, without a murmur of protest from Britain or the UN security council, he has been returned to Libya where he will receive not justice, but revenge.

= Libyan Islamists and the security forces: Iraq 2.0?
IN THIS particular case, analogy with Iraq is helpful, for it is clear that the post-Gaddafi Libyan security forces are being built up in much the same way as the new Iraqi security apparatus was created and developed following the fall of Saddam’s regime.
That is, facing a situation of chaos caused by competing militias, the post-Gaddafi Libyan government has understandably pursued a policy of trying to build up the new security forces as quickly as possible – an approach that was also adopted by the United States in Iraq.

= Ultraconservative Salafists Destroy Sufi Landmarks in Libya
TRIPOLI—Salafists—ultraconservative Muslims—behind the recent wave of sectarian bombings and the destruction of historic mosques and shrines—say they aim to rid Libya of all Sufi landmarks by the end of the year. Now they are turning their attention to women, posting flyers at universities and private schools, insisting male and female students be segregated.
The flyers and Salafist websites—some headquartered in Saudi Arabia—chillingly warn female students on Libyan campuses to avoid tight-fitting clothes, insisting that they must cover up and wear the hijab. The surging attacks on Libya’s Sufi mosques and libraries—the most brazen came on Aug. 25 when a well-known Tripoli mosque was bulldozed—have been encouraged by a prominent Saudi imam.
Sheik Muhammad Al-Madkhalee has issued a fatwa praising the desecration of Sufi graves and urging Libyan Salafists to do more to clear the North African country of any taint of Sufi worship.

= Hurray for robbery: "Libyan economy the fastest growing in the world"
In a country that is ruled by Western-backed terrorists and armed gangs since the NATO powers overthrew the free Jamahiriya government, in a country where former leaders are imprisoned, tortured and tried in kangaroo courts, the following article is supposed to be "good news".
The greedy bankrupt Western countries now seek to rob the formerly sovereign country as much as possible while making "lucrative" (oil) deals with its puppet government - however, will there still be a portion of every Libyan oil sale credited directly to the bank accounts of all Libyan citizens?
Will electricity, education and medical treatments still be free for everyone?
Will all newlyweds still receive $60,000 dinar (U.S. $50,000) from the NATO-installed "government" to buy their first apartment in order to start a family?
Will that government still subsidize 50 percent of the price of a person's new car?
Will there still be no interests on loans?
Will the price of petrol still be $0.14 per liter?
Will Libya still have no external debt?
This all was the case under the revolutionary leadership of Muammar Qaddafi who made Libya the most prosperous country of Africa and more prosperous than Russia, Brazil and Saudi Arabia... - WM

http://libyasos.blogspot.gr/2012/09/the-story-of-revolution-brother-leader.html
September 1, 1969:
Moammar Al-Gaddafi and a group of army officers overthrew king Idris's government and changed Libya's official name from The Kingdom of Libya to The Libyan Arab Republic which to be governed by The Revolutionary Command Council lead by Moammar Al-Gadhafi. A temporary constitution was declared to replace the Kingdom's constitution which was adopted December 25, 1951 and updated October 7, 1963. The change happened in a peaceful way. The day is celebrated every year as The Revolution Anniversary. The Libyan Revolution was supported by most of the Libyan people and huge demonstrations were held next day and continued for days.
Universally known as an honourable man, now injured while in custody. And facing numerous appearances in kangaroo like courts.
From Wikipedia: Abuzed Omar Dorda (Arabic: أبو زيد عمر دوردة) (born 4 April 1944) was General Secretary of the People's Committee (Prime Minister) of Libya from 7 October 1990 to 29 January 1994, and as Libya's Permanent Representative to the United Nations from 1997 to 2003.

On Friday, a bomb was found that the Sidi Hussein blood bank centre with the message o “Al-Fatah –a gift from martyr, Issam Fitouri, 30 August 2012”. The reference to “Al Fatah” (the Opening) which was Qaddafi’s description for his 1969 “revolution” was seen as confirmation of pro-[ Libya] Qaddafi activity.
On Wednesday, security forces in the city reportedly uncovered large quantities of weapons and ammunition in one of the city’s public markets
On Monday, an armed group attacked the Criminal Investigation Department’s premises in the city. There were no casualties and two of the attackers were detained.
As a result a state of high alert was declared in the city by the deputy interior minister responsible for eastern Libya, Wanis Al-Sharif.
The attack on Wednesday in which an air force colonel, Mahmud Berrhouma, was shot in the legs is, however, seen to have been an attempt at common theft. The assailant was apparently after his car.

.Salafists have destroyed almost 30 graves at an historic madrassa in central Tripoli, in the latest spate of religiously-motivated violence to hit Libya.
The Othman Pasha madrassa, named after its Turkish founder, was attacked by scores of armed men in the early hours of this morning, who used automatic drills to dig up the graves and looted several historic texts from the school’s library.
The madrassa also serves as a boarding school.
“They came around 2am. There were about 200 of them and they were heavily armed”, one of the madrassa’s staff told .
“They destroyed all the graves except two, and we think they will come back for those. There are around 30 graves, in which Othman Pasha and his family are buried”.

“They took about half of the books”, he said.
