Comments on: Note to Malta Today: the proper news is that Libya’s deputy PM is living in Malta, and not that he isn’t the man in Xemxija

In reply to H.P. Baxxter. Don't get hung up the 'warlord'. He came to Malta to die. Why? Because if Tripoli is now the front line, Malta is the staging area. And some of you called me a warmonger back in 2011.

Daphne,
Some journalists cannot keep up with you so they try to downplay your reporting. It is crystal clear to us readers. In the case of this story it instigated hate comments towards you from those who always wait for some kind of contradiction of your stories to hit at you instead of the story.

In reply to H.P. Baxxter. The guy's name was Halbous, and he was a personal friend, baxxter, and he was a good leader of men. He was no warlord. Just a man who rose to the occasion. But yes, there are a few rich warlords around.

In reply to Angus Black. Libya is full of very, very rich warlords who use Malta as a convenient staging area. Remember the one who died in Malta of wounds sustained in Libya?

The other bit of proper news is, if the man at the Ambjent Complex wasn’t Ali Zeidan or Abdulkarim abdulrahman, then who was it?

Do we have another Libyan government official living here pseudo-incognito, under government-mandated protection?

Does Muscat know what he has gotten into, taking us all along with him? Does he even care?

The Xemxija retailer probably saw one of Sadiq Abdulkarim Abdulrahman’s aides doing the shopping.

OK, so let us assume that the man in Xemxija is not Abdulkarim nor Zeidan.

The question should be: Who else would warrant an armed posse guarding/protecting his residence there?

It cannot be a Maltese suspect/convict or the cops would not be under cover and would have busted their way in and got the man.

The other possibility is that they are guarding a look-alike of either Abdulkarim or Zeidan so that the real man could live elsewhere and the Xemxija flat is just a decoy.

Either way, it is a risky piece of nasty business which can easily blow up in the prime minister’s face.

If Libya’s deputy PM is residing in Malta, does that mean we have been de facto annexed by Libya?

Because I’m patriotic and this is not cricket.
