Gaddafi feared a coup, one like the one he gave for seizing power in 1969. So Libya had an army poorly trained and poorly equipped, led by generals who were never in the inner circle of power. Gaddafi wanted them away and facing each other, convinced that the division would guarantee the longevity of his tyranny, as it has been for nearly 42 years.
Today, however, it is now payback time for many of these military officials like General Abu Bakr Younis Jaber, who have disobeyed orders to attack the population. His fate is unknown whether they can take charge of the revolution, Libya could start a new era. Gaddafi, meanwhile, has entrusted his fate to an army of mercenaries arrived from the Sahel and Saharan Africa.
The International Federation of Human Rights, based in Paris, estimated to be about 6,000 and half would be in Tripoli. For years Gaddafi has taken care of relations with the presidents of Chad, Mali and Niger, and now these friends have sent soldiers to wage or allowed to be on their own.
The web Tchadactual, which usually has good sources in the presidential palace in N'Djamena, says that President Idriss Déby has dispatched a thousand soldiers to the aid of Gaddafi. The Libyan dictator would also have asked for reinforcements to Sudan, but Khartoum, apparently, has refused.
Still, armed groups in the Darfur region have crossed into Chad and Libya to be under the command of Gaddafi. Indeed, the harmony of the Libyan regime with the nations of the Sahel Gaddafi had served to reconcile with the United States and the European Union. Since 2003 relations were becoming more intense.
United States in 2009 reopened an embassy in Tripoli had been closed 36 years. Washington is interested in access to Libyan hydrocarbons, like its European allies, but also interested in the fight against al Qaeda in the Maghreb, a terrorist group based in Algeria, dominates the central Sahara region since years and kidnap Westerners who then asks billion.
Libya suddenly had a strategic value to the West, which opened the doors of the international arms market. Even EE. UU., 23 years after the Tripoli bombing, seemed willing to train the elite units of the Libyan army to do against Al Qaeda groups. Spain sold arms worth 6.9 million euros in the first half of 2010.
Great Britain included in the order armored riot vans these days have been seen on the streets of Tripoli. These streets that earlier this week, were full of citizens willing to emulate their compatriots in Benghazi, are empty for four days. The mercenaries have emptied. The neighbors with whom we have been discussions regarding the mercenaries came to neighborhoods in SUVs, vans and even buses.
They did, especially in the evening and fired indiscriminately, at random, against everything that moved and also against the facades of buildings. Some spoke in French, which would confirm that result from the Sahel. These mercenaries would be the first strike force, but the dictator has at least three other military assets to play.
It features the revolutionary committees, political commissars led by stalwarts who know the ground they walk on. Then the brigade is led by his son 32 Jamis, the body's most sophisticated military, which has been strengthened and more that can be decisive in Tripoli. Gaddafi has finally committed his last line of defense to the presidential guard, who leads his son Muatsim.
If, as promised, will fight "until the last man, the last woman and the last bullet" if just to fulfill his wish to die as a martyr, will certainly be surrounded by the guard at a military base in Tripoli and Sabha in the desert, or any other hiding place. These forces have a distinct advantage over the opposition: they are organized and trained to use the weapons at your disposal.
The mercenaries, who would be fighting to change a few thousand dollars each (this seems to be the going rate in Africa) - will continue killing until they recover or be killed. Giving orders on how to act have Jamis Gaddafi. Before them, facing to the brigade 32 and the presidential guard, the opposition has no command structure, does not even know what to do with the confiscated material, weapons mostly the 70 and 80, are totally useless for waging urban guerrilla warfare that has raged in Tripoli.
Jamis Gaddafi has deployed 32 sniper brigade in many rooftops in the capital, especially with landmarks such as Green Square, and will not be easy to beat. Muammar Qadhafi, caught by the egomania and paranoia, surrounded by a guard petoriana, you can not regain the lost ground, but can sell expensive skin.
The southern border, especially Chad and Niger, will remain open to receive the many mercenaries dollars can buy oil.
