“Libya: Inside Benghazi’s rebel training camps
Libyan insurgents may be making sporadic progress - but their tactics need a lot of work, finds Ben Farmer at a rebel training camp.

The ageing military instructor had assumed the statuesque pose of a javelin thrower to teach his rebel pupils how to fire a rocket-propelled grenade.

“It flies through the air like this,” he demonstrated gravely, grasping the rocket projectile in his right hand like a paper aeroplane.

Seated at his feet in deep, but puzzled attention were nearly 30 cross-legged students dressed in everything from long traditional robes to business suits, rather than fatigues.

Some 50 yards away, on the parade ground of what was once one of Col Muammar Gaddafi’s largest military camps in Benghazi, was another semicircle of students gathered around a dilapidated anti-aircraft gun.

At such daily training sessions, the Libyan rebel high command hopes to forge its rabble of young revolutionaries into a force which can resist and one day even defeat Col Gaddafi’s army.”

My real fear here is that we were there as one of the principal conduits for Al Qaeda and ‘renewal of Islam’ Arab Spring arms trade, courtesy of George Soros, Barack Obama, and certain well-placed Administration corruptocrats.
