Pepe Escobar also noted:

Al-Qaeda asset is military commander of Tripoli

Pepe Escobar said that an al-Qaeda asset is now leading the military of
rebel-controlled Libya.

According to Escobar, Abdelhakim Belhadj, who commanded a military offensive
in Libya over the weekend, has become the de facto commander of the Tripoli
armed forces. Belhadj has also, says Escobar, was trained in Afghanistan by
a “very hardcore Islamist Libyan group.”

Escobar says that Taliban-linked sources overseas have confirmed Belhadj as
the new commander. In the aftermath of 9/11, the CIA began tracking Belhadj,
who was eventually captured in Malaysia in 2003. Escobar says that he was
then tortured in Bangkok before being transferred back to Libya and
imprisoned. He made a deal that allowed for his release in 2009 and as of
this week is the military commander of Tripoli.

“I can say almost for sure with 95 percent certainty that this is the guy,”
Escobar confirms.
