Tripoli update: Haftar's LNA was probing Mizdah getting ready to retake Gharyan soon. LNA units are selling new UAE-provided 2T Toyota technicals (with ZU 23s) for $170K east of the city. You can pick up unfired LNA 9M133 Cornet ATGMs for $12-14K. #ComeOnDown #ProliferationSale
Libya is also a time warp refuge for brand new FJ Cruisers.
Here come the kiddies to get slaughtered. Somebody call George Clooney. Local LNA recruits were getting two weeks training, new gear and $270 a month. GNA is paying half that and its not in cash. libyanexpress.com/janjaweed-chad…
Haftar's dinars are printed in Russia. In Gharyan the LNA dropped $50M ($11M) into the bank so that people could withdraw 2000LD ($450) a month. In a socialized country getting your stipend is a big deal.

Erik Prince/Frontier Service Group now running an old 1979 Short SD3-30 C/N SH3026 out of CIA Air central aka Ft Lauderdale. Used to belong to a west coast SEAL parachute training company. FSG is a Chicom CITIC company. Begin scratching head now.
Photo is January 2019.
Plane was sold by SkyQuest, Oddly enough the company that sold Erik Prince's other secret planes. Does it get weirder? Oh yes..quite a bit weirder.
Boeing B767-238ER c/n:23403 Tail # N774WD was owned by Erik Prince's Salamis Aviation. Sold in 2010ish. Supposed to be an airline that flew from Florida to Dulles to Eastern Europe and then Afghanistan. Rendition express? Did it actually happen? Well Skippy the internet is free.

"Bolton’s delighted reaction suggested the seizure was a surprise. But accumulating evidence suggests the opposite is true, and that Bolton’s national security team was directly involved in manufacturing the Gibraltar incident." #FailedFuckery theguardian.com/world/2019/jul…
These hacks had to go to Albania to get a decent Iran war audience. It's like dinner theater for 60's TV actors. "The main takeaway from the event was that the Iranian regime is close to collapse because of its desperation"

Did I mention that Saudi Arabia bankrolls the MEK cult in Albania and pays generously if you sputter and pound the podium demanding regime change? middleeasteye.net/opinion/why-ir…

It is "Zero Hour" here in Tripoli according to a Facebook post by the #LNA. I think I will get a shwarma. arabnews.com/node/1528326/m…
My ground information is not matching the big statements. There was some internal fighting in Tarhouna between a salafist LNA group and a Haftar group. al Jufra Air Base is being hit by Turkish drones which appear far more accurate than UAE drones. Libyans are tired of this.
There was a big push but it was blocked and pushed back by about 80 civilians in Gharyan who shot the shit out of the LNA. They can't hold and Misrata has not gone heavy. Maybe he will air drop money and iPhones

All I want is for you brilliant people to weigh in on this!

It appears Barr VIOLATED the Special Counsel rules, 28 CFR § 600.9(a)(3)...

It could be incredibly important! I'd be so grateful!

@Mimirocah1 @JoyceWhiteVance @neal_katyal @BarbMcQuade @tribelaw @gtconway3d @rgoodlaw
@Mimirocah1 @JoyceWhiteVance @neal_katyal @BarbMcQuade @tribelaw @gtconway3d @rgoodlaw Oooh, I think @Neal_Katyal may be talking about Barr's apparent violation of the Special Counsel regulations I've been arguing!

@Mimirocah1 @JoyceWhiteVance @neal_katyal @BarbMcQuade @tribelaw @gtconway3d @rgoodlaw #UPDATE: Unfortunately, @Neal_Katyal did NOT cover Barr's potential violation of the Special Counsel rules in his new piece/appearance on @TheBeatWithAri.

BUT...he did get pretty close, by touching on a central issue connected to the argument I've noted.

FOOTAGE CAPTURES ARMS "RAT LINE" ON "MYSTERIOUS PLANES" FUELING LIBYA WAR 2.0
We might call it the war for #Libya 2.0 given that a new war for #Tripoli is fast becoming internationalized in what threatens to be a full-blown proxy war

"Footage online seems to show the capture of the “Portuguese mercenary” pilot whose fighter jet was downed by the Libyan National Army. He is seen being questioned after his plane was shot down, & later reveals his alleged name."

THREAD #Libia. Negli scontri a sud di #Tripoli ci è scappato il primo morto. Si tratta di un 20enne, coinvolto negli scontri tra l'Esercito nazionale libico, di Khalifa Haftar, e le milizie a a protezione della capitale, sostenuto dal presidente Serraj.
almarsad.co
THREAD #Libia. Gli scontri stanno avendo luogo mentre al-Serraj ha ricevuto a Tripoli il segretario generale delle ONU, Antonio Guterres per rilanciare il piano onusiano di rappacificazione. Un piano che le ultime mosse di Haftar a #Tripoli rischiano di sventrare completamente
THREAD #Libia. C'è una sorta di ironia nel fatto che questa "resa dei conti" arrivi nel 70esimo anniversario dalla nascita della #NATO, spesso additata (anche erroneamente) come responsabile dell'instabilità libica.
