They don't like to wash themselves or to brush their teeth. They are like gypsies” a deep-rooted Misrati businessman said with contempt. He went on to hark for a different age, when the “Misrati governorate spread from Karabouli to Ras Lanuf”.

City of Misrata "courageous decision" to Withdraw from Libyan Government; from conscripts to congress leaving posts The negotiations with the Libyan Government didn't go well. The high level delegation that visited Misrata on Monday was forced to leave the city... Prime Minister Ali Zeidan appears to have cut short a high-level meeting in Misrata this evening, after angry revolutionary fighters arrived yelling for him to go. He had flown into the city accompanied by seven of his senior ministers; for economy, justice, telecommunications, labour, culture and electricity. The last, Ali Muhairiq is head of the commission that has been given the job of enforcing Law 27, which obliges all armed militias to quit Libyan cities.

Looks lie greater Misrata may be developing....it just won't be quick; unless there is another trigger. |
