Since this was a surprise attack with heavy weapons, the ordinary citizens would have wisely stayed away. However, their large reaction is indicative of the appreciation that many Libyans have for our support in removing their dictator. The militia issue has been smoldering for months. Glad this has finally provoked the rest of the population to confront the issue. There are a number of different militias and gangs of various religious persuasions and intensities, not to mention tribal or city affiliations. Sometimes two or three concentrated in one area or city. Not easy to predict or control or even interpret.
That was a 365 dollar comment, gleeaikin.
