Looks Like the French Are Having Hard Time in Mali

France surprised by Mali Islamists' fighting strength

France has expressed surprise at the fighting strength of Islamists in Mali, as the nation kept up its bombing of militant targets for a third day....

The Islamists had got hold of up-to-date and sophisticated weaponry after Libya conflict, the official added...

At the start, we thought they would be just a load of guys with guns driving about in their pick-ups, but the reality is that they are well-trained, well-equipped, and well-armed.” . . .

O/T (Yet Again) -

I'm sure this very old clip (from 2010) is the only time (or two) he said this kind of thing...

U.S. Criticizes Egypt’s Leader for Anti-Semitic Remarks

In a three-year-old video clip that resurfaced recently, Mr. Morsi, then a leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, urged Egyptians to “nurse our children and our grandchildren on hatred” for Jews and Zionists. In another video clip from 2010 that was recently distributed by a Washington research group, Mr. Morsi referred to “Zionists” as “these bloodsuckers who attack the Palestinians, these warmongers, the descendants of apes and pigs.”

Asked about Mr. Morsi’s anti-Semitic statements during a briefing at the White House, Jay Carney, the press secretary, said, “We have raised our concerns over these remarks with the government of Egypt.”

OT - Cyberwar

Were last Year's attacks on Saudi Aramco Worse than Reported?

As we discussed the growing trend of destructive cyber attacks, the strikes against Middle Eastern oil firms Saudi Aramco and Rasgas of Qatar that rendered about 30,000 computers useless last August came up.

The official then mentioned that these attacks may have been more damaging than reported.

"I was just in Saudi a while ago and found that the attacks were probably worse than we originally had believed, from talking to some of the folks there," said the official.

On-topic - Israeli politics and why Iran has not been an election issue...

Excerpt Dealing w/ Iran -
I've noticed that the word "Iran" rarely comes up in Israeli political discourse. Why is that?

It does seem odd, but this has been an election that has been dominated by economic and social issues, and to a certain extent, by personalities. But foreign policy has not been part of the debate, except to the extent that some of the criticisms directed at the prime minister have been about his handling of Israel's relationship with the United States, Europe, and the Arab world. Netanyahu has been very vague. He has talked about Iran as a challenge, but that's it. No policy specifics, no description of what that means. He also has evoked Syria as a challenge. Basically he just says, "We are going to face tough challenges, and I'm the guy to lead the country to face them."

I'm still here folks. Been travelling a lot the last few weeks. North Africa, Mali and Algeria primarily have kept us very busy. We have oil and gas contractors in both countries. Can't say much, but what I have seen in the press, both US and foreign has no basis in reality. The friendlies aren't talking and the enemies are lying, so the press prints what they hear, lies. As of this moment we have lost two citizens in Algeria, but things are very fluid.
I know the voices aren't real, but man do they come up with some great ideas!

Updates from Algerian Press -

More claims of final storming of Algerian gas plant, 7 hostages & 11 jihadists killed in final assault.

According to Al Watan, the Gas Plant in Amenas has been Sabotaged by Terrorists

"Following the intervention of the Algerian military forces on the gas plant and dislodgement Tiguentourine terrorists, it was found that the plant has been undermined in order to make it explode," said Sonatrach in statement sent to our editors.

The latter states that "a major clearance operation is in progress by specialized teams of the Algerian army before launching start-up operations of the plant by operating personnel Sonatrach mobilized for this purpose"

[link to translate.google.com]

According to other sources, 3 members of Belmokhtar's shura were at the plant... Everyone now contends the Marlboro man was behind operation...Which raises all kinds of issues re: Algerian military involvement - e.g. Hostage takers knew about plant operations and they knew about planned military strike before it occurred -

Speaking of Libya -

GNC PM Zeidan issued a statement denying that any Libyans were involved in Algerian attack - which resulted in this exchange between Rami el-Obeidi & Noman Benotman

Rami EL OBEIDI (@ramielobeidi)

@nbenotman A rather regrettable statement from PM Zidan - He's either being given inaccurate info or can't openly address the issue.

@ramielobeidi a classic statesmen statement. Your previous tweet is spot-on.

Rami EL OBEIDI (@ramielobeidi)

@nbenotman Thus its business as usual for Libyan governance and that until the monster they helped breed will start feeding on them.

@ramielobeidi This is the worst case scenario. God forbid.

Rami EL OBEIDI (@ramielobeidi)
1/19/13, 3:45 PM
@nbenotman We are both pragmatic people and that scenario has already begun.

Holy Shit...

Rami el-Obeidi was in charge of intelligence under the NTC (transitional government of Libya from March 2011 until August 2012). He is from a influential Benghazi branch of the powerful Obeidi tribe. While he is no fan of the ex-pats who are in charge of the current transitional government (GNC), he is not prone to hyperbole or histrionics... If he is suggesting that Islamists are "consuming" the government of Libya; I'd take his suggestion seriously.

Noman Benotman was a former member of LIFG who was influential in their negotiations w/ Saif al Islam. As a result of those negotiations, LIFG renounced violence and many of their members were freed. Some of them were then key figures in the 2011 uprising. Benotman is employed by Chatham House and many believe he is associated with British intelligence.

Isn't twitter great? Libyans "in the know" are tweeting that Islamists are feeding on the current government of Libya... Is anyone paying attention?
