The head of Libya's Toubou tribe on Friday called for international intervention to halt what he called the "ethnic cleansing" of his people after deadly clashes in the southern oasis of Sabha.

"We demand that the United Nations and European Union intervene to stop the ethnic cleansing of the Toubou," said Issa Abdel Majid Mansur, a former opposition activist against the ousted regime of slain dictator Moamer Kadhafi.

He accused Arab tribes in Sabha of bombarding a power station providing electricity to several parts of southern Libya including Qatrun and Morzuk, both areas with a strong Toubou presence.

Telecommunications were also cut off, Mansur said, and added that "several" members of his tribe were killed on Friday.

I wonder how that Benghazi free state is coming.

And if any black people ever got to go back home to what's left of Tawergha.

gun owners want to make this place look like. More proof of what happens when people have unrestricted access to weapons.

Libya has been one of the last nations in the world that had its own state run banking system, and control over its own money supply. By having this system in place, they could demand oil purchases from their oil fields to be made in Lybyan Dinar, and not the US Dollar. It also means that Libya has ensured themselves a stable economy, with little inflation and currency devaluing as most of the industrialized world has under private central banks.

Have you checked the price at the pump lately?

They are meant to benefit oil companies (shareholders and upper management).

The Libyan National Army did a very good job quelling the violence, though it is a shame it has been slow going.
