At least four people have been killed and seven others wounded in clashes that broke out between rival armed groups in Libya's capital, Tripoli, as they attempt to take control of the city.

The health ministry declared a state of emergency on Monday, according to local media, after the Sunday evening clashes continued to escalate.

The fighting erupted between local militias and al-Kani tribal fighters from Tarhouna, southeast of Tripoli, who are sending reinforcements to the country's north.

Both sides technically operate under Libya's UN-recognised Government of National Accord (GNA).

Both sides are supposedly part of the government there. Let's stay out of this one.

“We came. We saw. I paid thugs to shove a bayonet up Qadaffi’s behind and murder him. I stole Libya’s wealth for George Soros. I ran for President.”

McCain, Graham and Rubio.

McCain is dead, Graham is up in 2020, Rubio in 2022.

They need to be removed from office.

The problem is, John McCain, Hillary Clinton, Lindsey Graham, and Marco Rubio advocated Obama to support arming and financing of the Muslim Brotherhood as George Soros had been.

The Muslim Brotherhood took down Khadaffi, and this is where things pancaked.

It’s too late now to suggest we should stay out of it.

We helped finance the Arab Spring.

We helped finance the fall of Libya, the fall of Hosni Mubarak’s regime in Egypt, and it’s fairly certain we helped the group indirectly who killed Ambassador Stevens and his staff.

These people were such wizards. /s
