Libya takes delivery of 69 Puma, Nimr armoured vehicles


Libya takes delivery of 69 Puma, Nimr armoured vehicles

Nimr_400x300 The Libyan Army has taken delivery of 69 armoured vehicles, with the first batch of 20 Puma armoured fighting vehicles coming as a donation from Italy a while a further 49 Jordanian-made Nimr vehicles were donated by the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

The Puma vehicles were manufactured by Iveco Italia and supplied to Libya in terms of a bilateral defence co-operation agreement, which has also seen thousands of Libyan Army specialists and officers being trained in Italy. They were handed over to the Libyan defence minister General Mohammed Al-Bargoti in Tripoli by Italian defence minister Giampaolo Di Paola.

Speaking during the handover of the vehicles in Tripoli mid-month, Di Paola said the donation is testimony of the stronger, closer military and security ties between the two countries since the fall of former Libyan ruler Colonel Muammar Gaddafi in October 2011. He said Italy is prepared to help train and arm the navy, the army and the police forces to strengthen border and national security.

“We are prepared to help the new Libyan government by providing vehicles, training and a border control system. Libya is strategically important to Italy. We want the country to be stable and secure. We were among the first to come here immediately after the liberation to reaffirm our friendly ties. There are several agreements for cooperation projects that have already been signed, such as the one on integrated surveillance of Libyan borders,” Di Paolla told the Libyan Herald.

General Al Bargoti praised Italy for the support saying the donation and the fact that 3 000 members of the Libyan Army are currently being trained as military specialists and officers in Italy.

“Italy is a technologically advanced country and we will give it priority status for new armaments acquisitions. There will be more Italian arms deals,” Al Bargouti said.

The delivery of the 49 Nimr vehicles from the UAE is a boost to the 120 Nimrs already in service with the Libyan Army. Libyan Army spokesman Ali Al Sheiki said the armoured personnel carriers were supplied to Libya as part of a bi-lateral defence co-operation agreement signed between the two countries last year.

He said the new vehicles will be deployed to border security and surveillance duties in the eastern region which covers the general Benghazi area, which has evolved into a hotbed of jihadist militancy and a haven for armed criminal gangs.

The Nimr has a composite ceramic armour cover and a central tyre inflation system. All models are powered by a Cummins engines developing 146 kW of power, which provides a top road speed of 140 km/h and a cruising range of 700 km. The vehicle has a seating capacity for up to 6 passengers. More than 500 NIMR variants have been sold and are used widely in the UAE, Jordan, Libya, Algeria and Lebanon.

Illegal `Italian Consul` Shot At in Benghazi


Illegal `Italian Consul` Shot At in Benghazi

From: Mathaba

Pictures showed at least five shots to the vehicle.

Former colonial occupier of Libya, Italy’s illegal “Consul-General” in Benghazi, Guido de Sanctis, was attacked in Benghazi late today Saturday, but was saved by the bullet-proof glass and armour-plated vehicle he was in.

All illegal aliens from the enemy regimes that are illegally in the Libyan Jamahiriya without valid visas and have recognized the illegal occupation regime are targeted by the Libyan popular resistance movements.

The attack took place early Saturday evening. Resistance fighters shot at his vehicle outside the Tibesti hotel where he had been attending an unlawful conference on Benghazi as Libya’s “Cultural Capital”.

The Italian foreign ministry did not issue any statement while it sought to coordinate an official position with it’s U.S.-E.U. masters.

Security in Benghazi is completely out of control since February 2011 and analysts say it is certainly too dangerous a place for foreign diplomats.

On 11 June, the vehicle carrying the illegal British “Ambassador”, “Sir” Dominc Asquith, was shot at in Benghazi by the popular resistance seeking to free the Libyan Jamahiriya from occupation.

On 11 September, the illegal US “Ambassador” Chris Stevens who had coordinated the Benghazi February 17 conspiracy throughout 2011 was killed along with three other US spies and agents in a popular resistance attack on US diplomatic “safe houses” in the city.

The U.S. has been unable to located those responsible for his death as the operation left no traces, however they blamed an Islamist group but took no direct action against it. Later an unknown person was sacrificed in a fire in Egypt in order to close the case for the American public.

Saturday’s attack comes just two days after so-called “General National Congress President” and CIA operative since 1980, Muhamed Magarief, headed the biggest and most important Libyan “rats” delegation to Italy since the February 17 “ratvolution” and it included representatives from Benghazi. The visit coincided with the Italy-Libya Economic Forum in Rome, designed to expand economic ties.

The attack was evidently timed as a response to the visit and the Italian ministries have confirmed that Libya is unsafe for foreign companies and citizens while embroiled in a war in which “every rat for himself”.

*وضعوني في مدرسة بمنطقة الشاطبي في الإسكندرية ومكثت بها خمس سنوات

والدي المجاهد عمر المختار

*أوصي أنا محمد عمر المختار كل أحفاد عمر المختار وكل الليبيين الذين لديهم مقتنيات وكتب وصور وأي شيء يخص عمر المختار أن يحضروه للقائمين على متحف عمر المختار الذي ستقيمه الجامعة في مدينة البيضاء

*ذكر لي
 أحدهم أن أحد سكان منطقة شحات يحتفظ بمحفظة عمر المختار

حاوره في بيته : عبدالرحمن سلامة

الحاج محمد نجل شيخ الشهداء عمر المختار، الوقور ابن المختار التقيته في حوارين سابقين الأول كان في مدينة درنة عندما كرمت رابطة مجاهديها روح المجاهد
البطل يوسف بورحيل المسماري ، وثاني لقاء كان في بيته بمدينة بنغازي عندما زرته بمعية الكاتب حسين نصيب المالكي وحاورته في شهر رمضان المبارك بعد اعتذار رئيس الوزراء الإيطالي الذي انحنى أمامه وقبل يده أمام مرأى العالم ، وها أنا أحظى بشرف دعوته باسم جامعة عمر المختار وعميدها لحضور حفل التخرج لهذا العام ،فعندما أخبرني رئيس تحرير المجال والمختار الكاتب سالم الهنداويأنني من سيحمل هذه البطاقة وهذه الدعوة الرسمية كانت فرحتي عارمة ، وكيف لا وأنا سأكحل عينيبرؤية ابن عمر المختار وفي بيته الذي تحفه البركة ويعتريه السكون والطهر، وعند دخولي بيته أحسست بكرم المختار الذي وهب عمره وضحى بحياته من أجل الوطن موصولاً بابنه الذي كان احتفاؤه بي عظيماً ، وقابلني بابتسامة رضا وذكرني بلقائي السابق معه وعبر عن سعادته بما نشرته المجال في تلك الفترة ولمح في عيني عدة أسئلة جميعها حول زيارته الأخيرة إلى إيطاليا فبدأ يتحدث عن هذه الزيارة التاريخية قائلاً :

- كان اعتذاراً تاريخياً بحضور الأخ القائد معمر القذافي وتم التصديق عليه من مجلس الشيوخ ومجلس النواب الإيطالي و خطوة مباركة جداً وسعي طيب من الأخ القائد ،وكان اعترافاً بالخطأ واعتذاراً له معنى ومغزى ، وزيارتنا هذه هى بمثابة انتصار لأجدادنا وآبائنا وانتصار لعمر المختار حتى قائد الثورة في هذه الزيارة وضع على صدره صورة عمر المختار عندما أسرته إيطاليا ، وحقيقة هذا فخر لنا وللأمة العربية والإسلامية وكانت رحلة موفقة وبكل المعاني ، ولقد نزلت من على سلم الطائرةعلى مهلي واستقبلنا رئيس الوزراء الايطالي وفي اليوم الثاني ذهبنا لزيارة مجلس الشيوخ والأخ القائد ألقى خطابه هناك ، وكان معنا أبناء المجاهدين وأحفادهم ، و رأينا الإعجاب في عيون الجميع بالبطل عمر المختار وعبروا عن ذلك عندما حرصوا على التصوير معي ومع أبناء المجاهدين ، كما قمنا أيضاً بزيارة مقر مجلس الشيوخ الإيطالي .

- هل هذه هى الزيارة الأولى ؟
- هذه هى الزيارة الثالثة 
- ما الذي كنت تود معرفته في زيارتك هذه ؟
- حقيقة أنا عندما جئت لإيطاليا في اليوم الأخير من الزيارة سألت عن أبناء غريسياني فقيل لي أن لديه ابناً كبيراً في السن ، فطلبت منهم مقابلته فقيل لي انه في مكان بعيد عن المدينة التي كنا فيها ، فتمنيت أن ألتقي به وان أتحدث معه وددت أن أسأله عدة أسئلة وأن أتحدث معه بخصوص والده ، ووددت أن أقول لابن غريسياني إن والدك أمر بشنق والدي دون وجه حق ، وأن والدك أحد القادة الذين عاثوا فساداً في أرضنا وقتل الآلاف من الأبرياء ودمر البيوت وردم الآبار ونصب المشانق ،كنت أريد أن أطلب منه أن يرجع نظارة والدي عمر المختار لأن والده غريسياني هو من أخذها ، وأقول له أنه من وضع الأسلاك الشائكة بيننا وبين مصر وهو من قام ببناء المعتقلات ، بالرغم من أنه صرح انه معجب بعمر المختار ، كنت أود أن أقول له إن انتصاراتنا تختلف عن أي انتصارات أخرى لأنها متجددة وكان آخرها ما قام به قائد الثورة عندما أجبركم على الاعتراف ببشاعة ما ارتكبتموه وتعويض الشعب الليـبي عن الخسائر المادية والمعنوية .
- هل هناك وجه اختلاف بين هذه الزيارة وسابقاتها ؟
- هذه الزيارة لها وقعها الخاص ، فأنا كنت مع الأخ القائد في طيارته الخاصة ، فقد كان يتمهل في مشيته على السلم لأنه يعلم أنني لا أستطيع النزول بسرعة وينتظرنيعلى سلم الطائرة وكان ينظر إليّ وكأني أسمعه يقول لهم جئناكم بعد اعتذاركم وبعد اعترافكم ببشاعة ما ارتكبه آباؤكم وأجدادكم حين حلوا غزاة على أرضنا .
- كيف رأيت خيمة القائد التي نصبت في إيطاليا ؟
- كانت خيمة عظيمة وخيمة شامخة وكل الإيطاليين جاءوها ورأينا الإعجاب في عيونهم بهذه الخيمة والقائد عقد عدة اجتماعات بالليبيين المتواجدين في إيطاليا داخل هذه الخيمة ، وهذه الخيمة هى رمز الشموخ ونحن ذكرنا الطليان بالخيمة التي آوت كثير من المجاهدين وذكرناهم بخيمات المعتقلات وذكرناهم أيضاً بالخيمة التيتفاوضت فيها إيطاليا المفاوضات الأخيرة مع شيخ الشهداء والدي عمر المختار سنة 1929 ف في منطقة اسمها سيدي ارحومة . بالقرب من مدينة المرج ، وخيمة القائد هذه خيمة رائعة وحاجة بديعة . 
عندما نعود بكم إلى الوراء هل تتذكرون شيئاً من ملامح وصفات عمر المختار ؟
- نحن هاجرنا إلى مصر وكان عمري حوالي خمس سنوات والحكومة المصرية لديها فضل كبير على الليبيين واستقبلتنا مصر استقبالاً جيداً ، وعمر المختار رحمه الله تزوج ثلاث نساء برعصيات ثم تزوج امرأتين مسماريتين ثم والدتي وهى من آل الجيلاني ، واللاتي هاجرن معنا إلى مصر ثلاثة من زوجاته واحدة برعصية والأخرى مسمارية إضافة إلى والدتي ، وأيضا هاجر معنا عمي شقيق عمر المختار الحاج محمد المختار وأيضا ابن عمي سالم محمد مختار ، وعمي محمد المختار هو أكبر من والديعمر المختار وكان لديه ابن يدعى مختار استشهد في إحدى المعارك ضد الطليان في المرج ، وايضاً كان له ابن آخر هو عبدالقادر واستشهد ايضاً مع عشرة من المجاهدين من قبل الطليان في منطقة المرصص وابنيه الآخرين هما حمد و سالم وهؤلاء الأربعة جميعهم هم أبناء عمي محمد المختار ، وابن عمي حمد محمد المختار لديه خمسة أبناء أحدهم في طرابلس والآخرين في بنغازي ، وابن عمي سالم محمد المختار لديه ابن واحد كان في الجيش ثم أحيل للتقاعد اسمه مفتاح وهو أيضاً ابن أختي ، أما عمر المختار فكان عنده أربعة أولاد توفاهم الله جميعاً منذ الصغر ولم يتبق منهم سواي ، وكذلك لدي ثلاث أخوات واحدة اسمها عائشة وتوفيت في مطروح والأخريات توفاهما الله في مدينة بنغازي سنة 1990 ف وسنة 1998 ف ، وكان والدي رحمه الله عندما يأتي إلى النجع يكثر من النصائح والتراحم بين الناس ويوصيهم بحب الوطن وعدم التفريط في أي شبر منه ، ويقول للجميع عليكم بالقرآن وعلموه للصغار وحتى عندما هاجرنا إلى مصر أوصى أحد شيوخ الأزهر بتعليمنا القرآن .
- هل هناك حكايات تخص عمر المختار ولازالت عالقة في ذهنك ؟
- نعم عمي محمد المختار رحمه الله حدثنا عن والدي عمر المختار وكيف كان كريماً ويساعد الجميع ليس مع الليبيين فقط ولكن كل مسلم يأتيه قاصداً شيئاً ، كان يسعى لتلبية طلبه ومن ضمن من ساعدهم على مبارك اليمني الذي جاء إلى ليبيا مع الطليان لكنه انظم للمجاهدين مع بعض من رفاقه اليمنيين وكان لا يملك شيئاً من متاع الدنيا لكن والدي ساعده وجعله من ضمن مجاهدينا ووفر له كل ما يريد ، أيضاً من الأشياء التي كان يتصف بها والدي حبه الكبير للقرآن وتعليم الصغار القرآن فهو يعلم أن العلم نور .
- وبعد استشهاد عمر المختار كيف كانت حياتك ؟
- أنا عشت مع عمي ومع أبناء عمي حمد وسالم ، وطفولتي قضيتها في مطروح ومن ثم استدعانا إدريس السنوسي ومكثنا معه في منطقة الحمام في مصر وأنا وضعوني في مدرسة بمنطقة الشاطبي في الإسكندرية ومكثت بها خمس سنوات ، وبعد ذلك كون إدريس السنوسي حلفاً مع بريطانيا واستدعى الليبيين لتشكيل جيشاً وأنا أيضا دخلت هذا الجيش ، واعتقد أن ذلك كان سنة 1939 ف ، ولكن في عهد الثورة أصبح لي راتباً شهرياً ، والأخ القائد أصدر قراراً بترقيتي إلى رتبة عميد وأنا أتقاضى الآن راتب عميد ، كما أنه أمر ببناء هذا القصر الذي أسكن فيه وأنا الحمد لله أعيش في رضا وراحة بال ، وأيضاً من الأشياء الطيبة التي عملها القائد هو انتاجه لفيلم عمر المختار هذا العمل العظيم الذي عرف هذه الأجيال بجهاد عمر المختار ورفاقه الأبطال ، وحتى في إيطاليا نشر وأذيع في بعض القنوات الإيطالية في الآونة الأخيرة .

- بماذا توصي أحفاد عمر المختار ؟
- أوصيهم بالحفاظ بجهاد عمر المختار وبسيرته العطرة وبحماية هذا الوطن وبمكتسبات هذا الوطن وبالاهتمام بالعلوم وبالتعلم وأن يحافظوا على مرافق الدولة ويطوروا أنفسهم حتى يثبتوا للعالم أن أحفاد عمر المختار هم امتداد لعمر المختار .
- هل تحفظ شيئاً من أشعار لعمر المختار ؟
- عمر المختار عمره كله قضاه في الجهاد وأنا أحفظ بعض الأبيات التي كان يرددها للمجاهدين أثناء الجهاد حاثاً إياهم ومشجعاً لهم ومن هذه الكلمات :
أجواد راكبين الخيل على وطنا ما انمايلوا
 ، وأنا معجب جداً بقصيدة أحمد شوقي والتي قالها في رثاء عمر المختار وهى من القصائد الرائعة التي قيلت في عمر المختار .
- نسمع من بعض شركات الإنتاج أنها تفكر في إقامة مسلسل لعمر المختار 
- أنا أيضاً سمعت أكثر من مرة هذا الكلام لكن لم يأت أحد منهم للحديث معي بشكل رسمي بهذا الخصوص ، ومن يريد أن يقوم بهذا العمل عليه أن يأخذ المعلومات من أهله وأقربائه ، وحقيقة الفيلم أبدع فيه العقاد رحمه الله وأيضا الفنان الأمريكيانطونيو كوين ، وأخبرك أن أحد أبناء عمي حمد المختار اسمه مستور موجود في أمريكا الآن وعندما سمع به ابن انطونيو كوين جاءه وتعرف عليه واستقبله استقبالاً طيباً وقال له أبي هو من قام بدور عمك عمر المختار ، وأحب أن أترحم على روح المخرج العقاد الذي توفى من سنوات وأنا ذهبت إلى السفارة السورية وقدمت واجب العزاء لأهله وهناك من يقول أنه اغتيل وإذا تسبب أي أحد في وفاته هو وابنته فالله سبحانه وتعالى حسبه .
- هل هناك تواصل بينك وبين أبناء وأحفاد المجاهدين ؟
- نعم معظمهم يزورونني وأزورهم في الأعياد والمناسبات فمن الذين يزورونني باستمرار بحكم أننا جيران أبناء موسى الفضيل وأبناء عبدالحميد العبار ، وجميعهم سعداء بالزيارة التاريخية لإيطاليا وأيضاً أكدوا عدة مرات أن مواقف القائد تجاههم مواقف عظيمة .
- كلمة أخيرة :
- أشكرك يا ابني عبدالرحمن وأنت من قبيلة مجاهدة قبيلة حبون وأعرفك أن المرأة التي أرضعت والدي عمر المختار منذ ولادته وحتى فطامه هي من قبيلة حبون من منطقة البردي وأنا لا أتذكر اسمها الآن ، وأتمنى لك مستقبلاً طيباً وجعلك الله ذخراً لهذا الوطن.

HERE COMES THE NEW DEMOCRACY OF NTC IN FREE LIBYA!!!!!! LOL!!!!


HERE COMES THE NEW DEMOCRACY OF NTC IN FREE LIBYA!!!!!! LOL!!!!

NTC DICTATORSHIP/(**DEMOCRACY): New laws criminalize  the support for Gaddafi ‘s family.

The NTC has approved a law criminalizing any glorification of Muammar Qadaffi or any support for him or the ex-regime!!

Also passed at the NCT’s meeting on Tuesday was a law expropriating all the assets of Qaddafi and members of his family.

NTC spokesman Muhammed Al-Hareizi confirmed to Libya Herald that the two new laws had been passed. They would be made public on Thursday he said.

Qadaffi family assets have in practice been seized within Libya, but NTC believes that there are more to be discovered. A law will enable a funded “government” department to spend time and effort tracking down assets.

In Italy five weeks ago, the authorities seized more than $1.5bn in Libyan assets, mainly shareholdings in major companies, with the false explanation that they belonged to Gaddafi. These, however, were seized at the request of the ICC. Now Libya needs to pursue its own assets abroad and have them seized back!

This NTC style ”democracy” has no room for these people’s will

Glorification of Qaddafi and support for him may lend you a LEGAL jail time in newly imposed NTC dictatorship/(**DEMOCRACY MADE IN USA)! Up to now a NTC’s witch hunt for “Gaddafi’s supporters” was done illegaly, tortures of people in illegal prisons included (such as: making them eat green flags and jump like monkeys in cages if they happen to be black, electrocution, pulling out fingernails, rape etc). Even Doctors Without Borders ran away from Misurata cause they were sick with patching up illegal prisoners for the continuation of tortures.

Now a simple universal accusation “of being Qaddafi supporter” will be enough for you to be legally placed behind the bars your first neighbor who plays too loud music, a business competitor, a lady who sold you an out of date vegetable at the market, a boy who pushed you in secondary school in front of the girls… Understandably, citizens in other parts of the world sometimes wish people who simply go on their nerves to go to hell or jail as well, but luckily they have no judiciary support to send them there. In Libya such laws, believe it or not, are now in existence!

NTC- how do you think all these people will react to this law?

Besides, the biggest tribes in Libya are supporters of Gaddafi, such as Warfalla tribe, which numbers 2 million Libyans (the country has 6 million citizens in total). It is not difficult to see that “jail construction industry” might be the next big thing apart from oil in the new Libya.

Political prosecutions will replace kidnappings for ransom in this branch of industry. After all, kidnappings for ransom (based on the same “You are Gaddafi supporter” principle) are soooo-last-year.

What do the accomplices in crime, such as HRW, UN and Amnesty say about this? Nothing, why should they? It fits their puzzle. Besides, they are too busy spending your money on the next imperialistic aim, enslaving other nations and taking away their rights in one of the most profitable industry on earth : creating Orwellian PR war games.

“War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength”

NATO Forced to Admit Air Strikes Killed Dozens of Libyan Civilians, Contradicting Initial Denials


NATO Forced to Admit Air Strikes Killed Dozens of Libyan Civilians, Contradicting Initial Denials

Libya3

NATO has admitted for the first time Libyan civilians were killed and injured during its seven-month bombing campaign that led to the ouster and death of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.

The acknowledgment came after a New York Times investigation revealed at least 40 civilians, and perhaps more than 70, were killed by NATO air strikes, including at least 29 women or children.

Others were killed when NATO warplanes bombed ambulance crews and civilians who were attempting to aid the wounded injured in earlier strikes. We speak to New York Times senior reporter Eric Schmitt, who co-wrote the investigation with C.J. Chivers.

“We only saw a small sampling of the strike sites that may have been affected, so the death toll is probably much larger,” Chivers says. [includes rush transcript] please go to the link as there is a video which you could listen to the interview.

http://www.democracynow.org/2011/12/22/nato_forced_to_admit_airstrikes_killed

UAN GONZALEZ: NATO is admitting for the first time Libyan civilians were killed and injured during its seven-month bombing campaign that led to the ouster and death of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi. NATO made the acknowledgment after a New York Times investigation revealed at least 40 civilians, and perhaps more than 70, were killed by the bombing raids. The New York Times reports the victims include at least 29 women or children, who often had been asleep in homes when the ordnance hit. Others were killed whenNATO warplanes bombed ambulance crews and civilians who were attempting to aid the wounded from earlier strikes.

The New York Times reporter C.J. Chivers visited several of the bombing sites to investigate the air strikes.

C.J. CHIVERS: The Gafez and al-Jarud family compounds lie in Majer, a small farming community near Zlitan. The ugliest known mishap of NATO’s bombing campaign took place here.

ALI HAMID GAFEZ: [translated] In the darkness of night, they bombed me and my family.

C.J. CHIVERS: Late on August 8th, a bomb struck the house of Ali Hamid Gafez, collapsing the second floor and killing five women and seven children. A few minutes later, a nearby compound belonging to Altiya al-Jarud was hit. Two buildings inside were destroyed, killing four men. The survivors said that his neighbors rushed to help dig through the ruins of the second compound. NATO attacked once more. Eighteen more people died.

AMY GOODMAN: Despite NATO’s acknowledgment of civilian deaths, the alliance is saying it does not have the capacity or intention of investigating the deadly strikes on civilians. Unlike in Afghanistan, NATO has not expressed condolences or given small payments to victims or their families.

Overall, NATO destroyed more than 5,900 military targets and carried out 9,700 strikes during the seven-month bombing campaign. Warplanes from France, Britain, the United States, Italy, Norway, Denmark, Belgium and Canada took part in the bombing.

We’re joined now by the New York Times reporter Eric Schmitt, who co-wrote the investigation with C.J. Chivers.

Eric, welcome to Democracy Now! Why don’t we start off—before we talk about the latest news that’s now coming out around NATO in Pakistan that you’re going to a news conference over, let’s talk about what you found in Libya.

ERIC SCHMITT: Well, the principal findings, as your introduction has suggested, was that initially NATO had said, and the Secretary General ofNATO had said, that throughout the seven-month air campaign, they knew of no confirmed civilian casualties on the ground as a result of NATO air strikes. What our investigation has shown, and my colleague’s reporting has shown, that there were at least a dozen or so instances where there were air strikes that caused civilian casualties. Now, granted, this is a very—a relatively small number in the overall number, as you said, 9,700 strike sorties that were carried out, but still significant enough that there were somewhere between 40 and 70 civilian deaths. And that’s just what we know of. Of course, we only saw a small sampling of the strike sites that may have been affected, so the death toll is probably much larger.

JUAN GONZALEZ: And in terms of what you did find, you found several instances where families were hit in their homes, as well. Could you talk about one or two of those?

ERIC SCHMITT: Yeah, what we saw, a couple of instances. One was, for instance, there was a strike against a warehouse that we later learned from the guards who had been tending it through the many months was really only a warehouse for food. This was quite close to a civilian home where a number of people were killed. There were, in other instances where mistaken intelligence—where there was a civilian home hit that was very near another home that had been the meeting place for some of the pro-Gaddafi forces. So, again, a piece of bad intelligence, just a few doors away, essentially, ended up meaning a death warrant for many—for several family members.

AMY GOODMAN: Can you introduce us to some of the family members that C.J. Chivers, your co-author in this piece, visited? The story of the little boy who was killed, for example?

ERIC SCHMITT: Yeah, we talk about this little boy who was killed in a strike early on, and it was very sad in terms of how—again, the targeting process here, which would be carried out initially in Italy and then relayed to these pilots, who would be flying these wartime missions, usually at night, using laser-guided or satellite-guided bombs for the precision. And yet, what happens is, in this particular case, bombs are falling, and buildings are collapsing around families, killing small women and—small children and women, in many cases.

JUAN GONZALEZ: Yeah, I want to go back to a New York Times video report narrated by C.J. Chivers. This clip begins with Anders Fogh Rasmussen, Secretary General of NATO, speaking in June.

SECRETARY GENERAL ANDERS FOGH RASMUSSEN: Our military commanders are very much focused on avoiding civilian casualties. We are actually very, very careful.

C.J. CHIVERS: NATO has withheld details on most of the errors and labored to portray its role in the war as all but flawless. Until this month, it insisted it had not confirmed the killing or wounding of a single civilian.

SECRETARY GENERAL ANDERS FOGH RASMUSSEN: We have carried out this operation very carefully, without confirmed civilian casualties.

JUAN GONZALEZ: Your response to the initial NATO declarations?

ERIC SCHMITT: Well, here’s the problem with the Secretary General’s statement, and it was a statement that was repeated over and over again byNATO officials throughout the campaign: “We have no information of confirmed casualties.” Well, the problem is that NATO and the U.S. did not have any boots on the ground, at least none that they’ve acknowledged, and so until they had such boots on the ground that they could conduct their own investigation, they were not going to acknowledge any kind of error, even though, of course, there were times, air strikes, where the pro-Gaddafi regime came out and claimed casualties for strikes. These were dismissed as propaganda. And in one case, we went back and looked at these, where, in one instance, there was—I think the regime at the time of the strike had claimed maybe 80 or 90 civilian casualties. That clearly proved to be exaggerated, but our examination—again, on Chris’s reporting on the ground, in talking to family members, neighbors, medical people in the area—confirmed that there were probably about 30 or 35 casualties or so that were—that died on the scene. So, clearly, and this is—NATO officials pretty much acknowledged to us that, again, without having gone on the ground and confirming it themselves, there may well have been civilian casualties.

The question now is, what will be done about it? NATO has not committed to going in on the ground to investigate these strikes, as they’ve done in places, as you noted, in Afghanistan. They’re essentially waiting for the Libyan government to invite them in to do this. So far, the Libyans are preoccupied with setting up their new government and dealing with other challenges, apparently, to do this.

AMY GOODMAN: And ties to the current Libyan leadership of NATO?

ERIC SCHMITT: Well, again, NATO and the Libyan government are in contact. And as a result of our story, I was told just yesterday by the NATO spokesman, for instance, that they are now working to gather information on unexploded ordnance. These are essentially duds, bombs that were dropped but didn’t go off, that pose a real threat to civilians, including children. NATO is now trying to track those—because the pilots knew when their bombs didn’t explode—track them, figure out where they are, and get that information to the Libyan government so they can get it out to their people. I’m told that NATO will try and get that information to the Libyan government by the end of January.
