Libya seems to be heading towards a major civil war, waiting for its next strong man to put a lid on the chaos and control the various parties.

The Libyan government is unable to control its territory.

The situation in the country has deteriorated so much that the US suspended training by US special forces after a local militia stole a cache of American-provided weapons.

According to a report published in the British newspaper, The Times, on Friday, quoting Olivier Guitta, the director of the London-based Henry Jackson Society think-tank, French, American and Algerian special forces are on their way to southern Libya to attack al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb (AQIM).

Obama’s foreign policy has come up trumps in both Syria and Libya - not to mention Egypt!
