General Haftar: Benghazi Will Be Taken Within A Month

Confident prediction here.

How many weeks did it take, in November of 1979,  to recapture the Mosque in Mecca? There were several weeks of “mopping up,” until finally French troops were secretly brought in — they all said the shehada perfunctorily before entering the sacred precincts — to do what Saudi troops could not do. How many weeks more will the Tikrit operation — a small city, where the Shiite attackers outnumber the Islamic State defenders ten to one — take? But even if it takes a while, it is likely that Benghazi will be surrendered to General Haftar, before the emails about Benghazi, on a private server somewhere in New York City, are surrendered to Congress.
