Issa Abd al-Majid Mansur, a prominent member of the Libyan opposition also announced that Imam Musa Sadr is still alive. A few other leaders of the opposition have stated that Imam Musa Sadr is still alive and is residing in a prison in Sabha.



Therefore, it is unclear whether this person who looked like Imam Musa Sadr was transferred to another city in Libya or outside of Libya. This report is troublesome for those who love this Islamic personality; not only those in Lebanon, rather those all over the world.

Imam Musa Sadr entered Libya on August 5th, 198 with Shaykh Muhammad Ya’qub and ‘Abbas Badr al-Din. He was supposed to meet Gaddafi on the 29th or 30th of August. But, his whereabouts have been unknown since that day. Libyan officials have claimed that Gaddafi decided not to meet with Imam Musa Sadr and Sadr then travelled to Italy.

Shk Musa is supposed to be 80+ yrs old and jailed for years.

My guess is the opposition is trying to get Hizbullah + Iran support in ousting Gaddafi

are you saying that the reporter from Islamtimes is possibly with the opposition in Libya

Clear?

The writer got his info from the opposition.

Interesting idea.

Do you think Iran or Hizbullah will get involved?

Any ideas what Sayyid Ali Khamenei and Ahmedinajad have said about the uprisings? Likewise anything from Sayyid Nasrallah?

[Muhammad Mahdi]

Ahmedinejad was on TV criticizing Gaddafi and calling for the freedom of the Libyans. The news anchor said this was somewhat ironic since Iran was having similar protests.

However, I haven't heard him mention Musa Sadr. They probably have their research team and spies who are investigating the claim.

Whatever the case, imagine the outcome should Hizbullah interfere. I'd like to see that happen not only in Libya but more so in Bahrain
