E. Libyan govt issues retaliatory entry ban against US citizens
A government based in eastern Libya said on Wednesday it would bar entry to US citizens after President Donald Trump’s administration included Libya in a new travel ban. The eastern-based government of Abdullah al-Thinni is aligned with Libyan military commander Khalifa Haftar and is opposed to the internationally recognized Government of National Accord (GNA) in Tripoli. Announcing its ban, the eastern-based government said it was responding to “a dangerous escalation that targets Libyan citizens and puts them in the same basket as the terrorists against whom our… armed forces are fighting.” (Reuters)
If you are in the business of buying human beings Libya is a very lucrative market, and I here it is nice this time of year with the scent of burning flesh filling the air. Ah Libya, it's almost as pleasant as Somalia.
