They brought F5 rockets that also surfaced in the Libyan war, said the security source.
The Islamists wore the same type of outfits that Qatar provided to Libyan National Transitional Council rebels by Qatar yellow flak jackets with brown patches, known as "chocolate chip" camouflage. The garments are copies of ones worn by Americans in the Gulf war.
The terrorists also employed 60mm gun-mortars used by France and Libyan rebels.

Do some people actually think there are “good” bearded savages and bad bearded savages? If you give arms to the “good” bearded savages they will use it for good purposes?

Don’t worry Eric Holder is staying on and says he’s gonna stop illegal gun-running.
I watched a documentary recently about Libya. It seems Gadafi couldn’t have enough weapons. There are hundreds of weapons depots, filled to the brim, that are no longer guarded.

The interpretation of what was meant by the with-holder is what is worrisome. No wonder Americans are prepping and preparing.
Maybe that’s exactly why the Illegal decided to overthrow him. Neat way to supplyk AQ and all sorts of other bad guys while retaining plausible deniability.
I wouldn’t doubt it. he documentary was about a war journalist who was wounded during the unrest. A fellow journalist and camera man are killed. He wanted to go back and see what was going on since he left. He walked right in to a weapons dump. The stuff that was available was astounding. Libya is still a very dangerous place.
