Just going with the article title: A land of militias, Libya struggles to build a military

Since when is there a true nation in North Africa or Muslim inhabited lands. (Israel excluded - they have multiple tribes, but a single nation and a tradition that goes by thousands of years.) Libya is clan oriented. Libya is Muslim dominated. Should we expect no less than struggles to build a military without a dictator to buy and impose his will?

These are not a people of the West. They are not a nation.

Post WWI and WWII history should be revisited by free nations to learn what doesn't work with these vernon.

Another map with lines drawn by Europeans with no regard of how the locals felt about it.
