Somebody from Benghazi zipped into Basel this morning on Sonnig Falcon 900DX P4-FJA. This is after dispatching P4-RMA on a quick trip on the 24th to Caracas to do the cash to gold swap disguised as "delivering medical supplies". Will Haftar melts it down into a Rolls Royce?
Trivia: Did you know that Basel is popular for gold bullion storage? Ask CasaForte for low rates on storing your goooooooooolllllllddddd!
Now the other plane...Cite Aviation Gulfstream 450 N527EF...that went to Istanbul...Could Haftar be cutting a deal with Turkey now that he is in the dog house and surrounded by UAE paid mercenaries? It would make perfect sense to cut out the middleman. Why?
The UAE's only logical option to pester Tripoli is the Egyptian military. Pump some dough into another flat busted dictatorship that would like to control eastern Libya. Who would replace Haftar as puppet-in-chief of a bellicose Cyrenaica? Maybe rename Benghazi Euhesperides?...
An ugly situation: Haftar can't properly supply his besieged forces and soon he won't be able to evacuate them safely. The Russians are bringing in Syrians and more hardware to try to push but what Libyan would stay and die for a delusional old American? google.com/maps/d/viewer?…
The UAE/KSA dream of a strong man running Libya is about to be unhitched from Haftar. Who will the UAE pick next to tilt at windmills and destroy Libya? Go home to Virginia or Cairo Khalifa. Your time is over.
Why must Haftar be fired by the UAE now? Two words. Wadi Doum. The last time he was given combat combat, he did the exact same thing...and he didn't learn from the humbling defeat.
