SEVERAL WOUNDED IN LIBYA PARLIAMENT SHOOTING One correction to the following. Gaddafi was not ousted by armed groups. He was ousted by NATO with thugs from Arab countries assisted by a minority group of crazed Libyans. What the following shows is a dysfunctional Libya brought about by the governments of the US, Britain and France: “Several people have been injured as gunmen lay siege to the Libyan Parliament as voting for a new prime minister took place. The culprits are allied with one of the defeated prime ministerial candidates, spokesperson Omar Hmeidan told Reuters. Seven candidates were standing for the post to replace former Prime Minister Abdullah al-Thani who stepped down early in April after reporting an armed attack against him and his family on April 12. The shooting forced legislators to abandon the vote. Earlier in the day, a car bomb exploded outside a military compound in Benghazi, eastern Libya, causing the deaths of two soldiers and injuring two others. Libya has been ravaged by internal chaos since the ousting of Muammar Gaddafi by armed groups in 2011.”
