Washington intends to send military advisers to Libya "to help fight ISIS"

16
Chairman of the Chief of Staff of the US Armed Forces, Joseph Dunford, said that it was time for Washington to think about the probable dispatch of a military contingent of troops to Libya. According to Dunford, the United States and Libya "can at any time reach agreements on the provision of military advisory assistance to the Libyan army." The Libyan army in the United States today is understood to mean scattered armed groups that at least partially support the government recognized by the United Nations.

Washington intends to send military advisers to Libya "to help fight ISIS"


The American general made a statement on the negotiation process between the United States and one of the three Libyan governments after meeting in Brussels with the generals of the North Atlantic Alliance. According to Dunford, the help of military advisers to the soldiers of the Libyan army will help defeat the militants of the so-called "Islamic state". Reports the American edition about it The Washington Post.

In addition, Dunford told reporters that if the US military mission goes to Libya, it will be long-term. At the same time, he added that "many military representatives of the countries of the North Atlantic Alliance have expressed interest in joining the mission." The mission, according to the American general, is to assist in the training of the Libyan military, supporting the above-mentioned Libyan government.

    Here's how to be able to professionally "cut" budgets ... Afghanistan, Iraq, and earlier Vietnam, Somalia, and so on. and so on, and money and advisors - immeasurable, one is not enough - a positive result.
    At the same time, he added that "many military representatives of the countries of the North Atlantic Alliance have expressed interest in joining the mission."
    I can argue with a list of these "many" ... Great Britain, Germany, Italy - well, everyone who needs oil, plus the "great armies" of Estonia, Lithuania, Latvia and Georgia and Ukraine that "joined them"

      Well, how can I say ... Here in the USA they appointed an open fagot to command the ground forces, in Libya after Gaddafi they fucked the local ambassador of the USA to death. What if these advisers are like that hunter from the anecdote, well, whom the bear caught, took the gun and registered it. Well, the hunter ran for another gun and when he met him again, the bear said, “I just realized that you’re not going hunting, you liked it” wassat

      "Military Advisers". Indeed, I would like to believe that "seals" and CAC will not advise badly.
      Starting next year, it seems, a larger invasion is planned, now "reconnaissance on the ground".
      You’ll fight.
      laughing laughing Yeah, invite me to Azerbaijan - just like with the Armenians in the suburbs of Baku after the advice of "cats" .... yes, on the Caspian beach.

      Yes, not nonsense - but the embodiment of the doctrine of controlled (or maybe not so) chaos. States in principle and to win military victories is not necessary. The most important thing is that there should be a mess everywhere and everyone should be busy with their problems. Well, in the States, so that everything is calm, and everyone can be taught to live correctly.

    Yeah.
    While the Americans were "fighting" with IS in Syria and Iraq, terrorists occupied most of the territory of these countries. When the Russian Aerospace Forces began to really destroy the IS bases, the Americans howled.
    And how are they going to fight IS in Libya? The one who destroyed the country is the one who raised terrorism.
    What to expect from the US: training new terrorists? It seems to have already been in Syria.

    The headline is utterly false. Correctly sounds like this: Washington is going to send military advisers "TO HELP ISIS IN TRAINING TERRORISTS."

      The headline doesn't even need to be altered. You just need to rearrange it a little, just one word. ISIS. And then it will be the correct headline: WASHINGTON IS GOING TO SEND MILITARY ADVISERS TO LIBYA "TO HELP ISILS IN FIGHTING ..." laughing

    Starting next year, it seems, a larger invasion is planned, now "reconnaissance on the ground". The local motley barmaley still have time to join the ranks of the "Libyan army", the process has begun. The USA and their henchmen need a "small victorious war" the Syrian meal was spoiled by the participation of the Russian Federation. They will try not to let the Russians into the Libyan operation (well, as a last resort, if they screw up, they will call).

    All their help is "spinning" in the areas of oil fields and oil transportation, and therefore will be provided to those "fighters" who can ensure zero control over its volumes by the authorities.
    The loss of control over the flow of contraband Igilov oil from Syria through Turkey and a significant reduction in its volume due to Russian intervention forces the mattresses to organize new oil traffic.
