Looks like after the secular anti-Islam dictator Muammar Gaddafi died, Libya arming the Mujahideen worldwide with more modern weapons.
Oh... poor Hillary
UNITED NATIONS // Weapons are spreading from Libya at an "alarming rate," fuelling conflicts in Mali, Syria and elsewhere and boosting the arsenals of extremists in the region, according to a UN report.
The report by the UN Security Council's Group of Experts – who monitor an arms embargo imposed on Libya at the start of an uprising in 2011 which ousted leader Muammar Qaddafi – said the North African state had become a key source of weapons in the region as its nascent government struggles to exert authority.
Libyan government security forces remain weak and militias, made up of former rebel fighters, hold power on the ground.
"Cases, both proven and under investigation, of illicit transfers from Libya in violation of the embargo cover more than 12 countries and include heavy and light weapons, including man-portable air defense systems, small arms and related ammunition and explosives and mines," the experts wrote in the report published on Tuesday.
"Illicit flows from the country are fuelling existing conflicts in Africa and the Levant and enriching the arsenals of a range of non-State actors, including terrorist groups," according to the 94-page report.
"The proliferation of weapons from Libya continues at an alarming rate," the report said."Some 18 months after the end of the conflict, some of this materiel remains under the control of non-state actors within Libya and has been found in seizures of military materiel being trafficked out of Libya," according to the report.
"Civilians and brigades remain in control of most of the weapons in the country, while the lack of an effective security system remains one of the primary obstacles to securing military material and controlling the borders," it said.
Hamas, Al-Qaeda, Taliban = Mujahideen
Hezbollah, Iran = Terrorist
Get it, queers?
