TRIPOLI, Libya: Associated Press Report’s— Mourners vowed vengeance and upset off heavy shooting in a Tripoli cemetery on Saturday as they buried nine men they said were Muslim clerics and medics killed in a NATO airstrike in mostly rebel-held eastern Libya.
The Libyan government gave one account of why the men had traveled from the capital to the eastern front; a cleric at the interment who said he witnessed the attack in the oil town of Brega gave a dissimilar version.
And the government, apparently hoping to turn the interment into an expression of support for Moammar Gadhafi, announced the time and place on state TV and over text messages. Only a few hundred men showed up, however, and few exposed to be family or friends of the dead. At least a dozen were soldiers.
