Field Marshal Khalifa Haftar leads an army that controls most of
Libya, stands at the gates of Tripoli and is threatening to
overthrow the Government of National Accord. Backed by the powerful
Libyan tribes, Khalifa Haftar has also won the backing of several
international governments who see him as Libya's last hope of a
democratic solution. Others portray him as a dangerous rogue
commander with terrorist tendencies. But who is Khalifa Haftar, and
how has he become the most powerful leader in Libya? How has this
unknown commander raised an army from scratch, controlled the
powerful Libyan tribes and gained the support of powerful
international players? Is he good for Libya, or a terrorist threat?
This book explores the life of Khalifa Haftar against a backdrop of
Libyan oppression and war. A charismatic and controversial figure,
Haftar provides a lens through which to view decades of Libyan
unrest and explore the future of this volatile region.
