ALF Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Egyptian tanks sent to Libya to thwart Turkish intervention in battle for Tripoli A consignment of Egyptian T-72 tanks and APCs arrived in Libya on Thursday, Dec. 19, to bolster Gen. Khalifa Haftar’s Libyan National Army (LNA), which had just broken through to the southern outskirts of Tripoli This week, the Libyan Muslim Brotherhood convinced the Tripoli government to formally apply to Ankara for military assistance to repel the Haftar advance. Haftar’s army is solidly backed by Egypt, the United Arab Emirates and Russia. https://www.debka.com/egyptian-tanks-sent-to-libya-to-thwart-turkish-intervention-in-battle-for-tripoli/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALF Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Documents show US leaders misled public on progress in Afghanistan War: report Senior U.S. officials knowingly lied to the public about their progress throughout the 18-year war in Afghanistan, consistently painting a rosier picture of the state of the war than they knew to be true, according to a cache of documents obtained by the Washington Post. “After the killing of Osama bin Laden, I said that Osama was probably laughing in his watery grave considering how much we have spent on Afghanistan,” retired Navy SEAL Jeffrey Eggers, a White House staffer in the Bush and Obama administrations, said in a private interview. https://thehill.com/policy/defense/473635-documents-show-us-leaders-misled-public-on-progress-in-afghanistan-war-report Going into Viet Nam , Iraq and Libya also massive mistakes.

The problem with smacking Iran itself, is that plays right into the regime's hands.
