I went to Wikipedia and I believe you are correct. It does appear to be a F2000. And visually in good shape compared to most of the rusted out crap in the other pictures.

I wonder if it came off a “NATO” trooper?

At the bottom of the Wikipedia entry for the F2000 under Users it says:

"Libya: Purchased 367 F2000 rifles along with other assorted lethal and non-lethal systems from FN Herstal in 2008, with deliveries commencing in 2009.[17] The export of the weapons was initially blocked over concerns of proliferation into other volatile regions.[18]"
