North Africa and the Near and Middle East
Just after the fall of Tripoli, I, with the director of the Conservative Middle East Council, went out there and, in the chaos of the week after, met an Islamist who, having fought against us in Iraq and Afghanistan, made the most extraordinary comment, saying: ““This is the first time that the west has stood with ordinary people in the region. We shall not forget it.””
