The tragedy of Muslim migrants embarking on dangerous (and illegal) journeys into Europe continues to unfold. Last week in Spain, 100 illegal Muslim migrants swam to Ceuta. Three of them were hospitalized for hypothermia. According to reports, groups of 20 to 30 people were departing “all day” (April 25) to reach the Spanish enclave of Ceuta. […]
Libya deports families of Islamic State jihadis to Tunisia
Meanwhile, Western nations are bringing the members of Islamic State families back, often at great expense, and are excoriated as “racist” for any reluctance to do so. Why is it that Libya can act in the interests of its national security, but European and North American countries cannot? “Libya deports number of families of ISIS […]
Turkey: Those targeting Turkish interests in Libya would be ‘legitimate targets’
The warning comes less than two weeks after EU-sanctioned German commandos boarded Turkish ship in the Mediterranean to enforce a UN arms embargo on Libya. Turkey has aggressive ambitions in Libya. Observers say “Erdogan hopes to shape a Libya that can preserve Turkey’s political and economic dominance in the region.” He has already been working […]
EU-sanctioned German commandos board Turkish ship in Mediterranean to enforce UN arms embargo on Libya
A collaborative effort by the EU, UN and NATO to control Turkish influence in Libya has caused outrage in Turkey. It is to be expected that Erdogan would blame Greece, since Erdogan habitually scapegoats the Greeks.

In Libya, Fayez al-Sarraj Announces He Will Quit, Upsetting Erdogan
In Libya, Turkish troops and more than 20,000 Syrian mercenaries brought in by Turkey have turned the tide in favor of the Government of National Accord (GNA), ending the 14-month siege of Tripoli by the LNA and pushing General Haftar’s Libyan National Army (LNA) forces eastward, all the way to Sirte. The two sides — […]
Turkey Drives a Hard Bargain in Libya (Part 3)
Erdogan has been systematically jailing his enemies, especially those secularists who have remained loyal to the ideals of Ataturk. It is unsurprising that this supporter of the Muslim Brotherhood and other Islamists would not be concerned about ISIS members finding refuge in Turkey, or using the country as a way-station between Europe and continuing campaigns […]
Turkey Drives a Hard Bargain in Libya (Part 2)
The Turkish entry into Libya’s civil war on the side of the GNA has provoked other foreign powers to either threaten to join in, or actually to do so, on the side of Haftar’s LNA. Now the Libyan side of the story can be told in more details. We know that since Turkey has escalated […]
Turkey Drives a Hard Bargain in Libya (Part 1)

Turkey deploys 27,000 jihadis from Syria in Libya
More evidence of Turkey’s growing regional adventurism, which accords with Erdogan’s increasingly obvious desire to restore the Ottoman caliphate, and its embrace of jihadis and jihad activity. “Turkey Deployed 27,000 Syrian Militants, Jihadists In Libya: Monitoring Group,” Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, August 1, 2020 (thanks to Henry): Turkey has been deploying Syrian militants and […]
France: Muslim migrant accused of attempting to rape 3 women in one night, stabbing one victim 9 times
Women are worth less than men in Islam. Men are instructed to beat disobedient wives (Quran 4:34) and infidel women can be taken as sex slaves (Quran 4:3, 4:24, 23:1-6, 33:50). In addition, Muslims are instructed to cast terror into the hearts of disbelievers and strike them upon the neck (Quran 8:12). So it should […]
