Car bomb explodes at French embassy in Libya

“Libya’s new rulers are still struggling to impose their authority on a country awash with weapons and a myriad of armed militias who often do as they please.’
The term “blowback” is much abused but is certainly applicable here: the destruction of the Libyan state carried out by an alliance between NATO, with France to the fore,Qatar and Al Qaida -type elements created the conditions in which anyone can use terrorism to advance their agenda. It is all very well for Hollande to claim “excellent’ relations with the Libyan authorities but their writ does not run very far.
