An Aug. 27 WorldNetDaily article by Aaron Klein cites anonymous “Egyptian security officials” to claim that “The so-called popular uprising in Libya was supported and partially carried out by foreign mercenaries.” Not only does Klein not explain why anyone should trust his “Egyptian security officials” — possibly the same ones he relied on in his attempt to prop up the brutal Egyptian dictator Hosni Mubarak — he doesn’t explain why he doubts the extent to which Libyans support the rebellion against brutal dictator Moammar Gadhafi.
Klein also has a little problem with the English language:
The claim may bolster critics who question the composure of the rebels’ National Transitional Council, which has been recognized by the United States and most of the international community as the country’s de facto government.
We’re pretty sure he means “composition” instead of “composure,” but we could be wrong.
