Eyewitnesses Dismiss Rebel Advances On Tripoli As Misinformation

Heavy gunfire and explosions have been reported in the Libyan capital, and according to rebel commanders, the firing signals the start of a final onslaught on Muammar Gadaffi’s stronghold.

Earlier NATO-backed rebels in Libya said that a battle for the capital Tripoli could unfold by the end of the month, as they had taken key cities around the Gaddafi stronghold. However, rounds have been fired close to a hotel where foreign journalists are staying on Saturday evening. Explosions were heard in the area as NATO aircraft carried out heavy bombing runs after nightfall, the Associated Press reported.

Rebels were reported to be fighting in the city’s Tajoura neighborhood, as well as near Tripoli’s international airport. There have been reports that fighting also broke out in the neighborhoods of Soug Jomaa and Arada in the east.

But eyewitnesses say the gunfire is sporadic and the explosions heard are victory celebrations of Gaddafi loyalists.

Independent journalist Lizzie Phelan says the reports are an effort by NATO to create panic.

“The only gunfire that we are hearing is celebratory gunfire,” she said. “And the only explosions that we are hearing are NATO air strikes or NATO sound bombs, which are clearly designed to create a sense of panic in the capital city of Tripoli.”

Phelan said that the Libyan rebels created fake footage of themselves in Zawiya and Tripoli, and were aided in disseminating the footage by, among other media outlets, Al Jazeera. The Qatar-based satellite television station, she argued, has been at the center of the media conspiracy against Libya. The Western mainstream media, she continued, in turn picked up these reports and repeated them, creating a sense of panic among the Libyan people.

“Later on in the areas like Soug Jomaa, after the prayers, a number of armed gangs emerged, which are essentially sleeper cells of rebels inside the city, and began firing randomly and threatening ordinary people, that if they did not join them they would be assassinated,” she said. “They then took footage of the empty streets, which created the sense that they were in the process of capturing the city.”

Many people in Tripoli have been armed by the government and these people came out to defend their capital, she added.

Syria is next but which nation will follow in the successive “kinetic-action” peace-keeping missions?
If one world government is the goal, then any opposition at all is like a lightening rod for NATO attack.
The significance of this is that there are countries “laying-low” hoping NATO will not bother them.
They are only fooling themselves.
Beware Russia!
The banksters are moving to China!
Read the signs and heed the prophesies!
China will take advantage of an attack on Russia to overrun the borders.
When money has no-value, land is EVERYTHING.
Land means water,food,natural resources and a greater security barrier for hostile armies to overcome.
BEWARE Russia!
Your days are numbered and NATO is a master of disinformation and treachery.
- Think 8-8-08 times-1,000.
  The alternative media was relentless in trying to get the TRUTH out but even-so, it took time to undo the lies told by Western Media which howled for Russian blood after stating that Russia started that event.
I hope the Rothschild NATO scumbags will get a real bloody nose! Humanitarian bombing raids….
Who has ever heard of such assanine bullshit?
There is a WW2 precedent for what Gaddafi may be doing. I wonder if others may have realised this? It changed the course of WW2, and hopefully it will happen again. I’m reluctant of saying what I’m referring to for fear of giving the game away.
The Big Mo has a Big surprise for the so called rebels. Just wait and watch.
- Yep. O’l Duck his boys gonna FLAME THEIR *SS.
Wouldn’t doubt it …

The Main Slut Media lies for a ” livin’ ” …
