The Middle East Conflict You Haven’t Heard About?

Wall Street Journal published a piece claiming there’s a "conflict you’ve not heard about"Wrong! Readers here have heard/read about it. Having, in fact, been informed fairly extensively about the conflict, that is the subject of their oped.While others obfuscate, we’ve explored, as much as possible, in order to have a basic understanding of the situation.  image from articleImmediately below is  all that can be read about the “Middle East Conflict You’ve Haven’t Heard About"- wsj

"Turkey and Egypt are feuding over the fate of Libya and who controls the region’s resources. Iran isn’t the only flashpoint in the Middle East. Less noticed are tensions between Egypt and Turkey over the fate of Libya, where a messy civil war has been raging since 2014. This antagonism could further destabilize the middle east, (Gee, who'd benefit from that?)  which could set off another refugee crisis in Europe ( Cui Bono?)  The fight may also disrupt maritime commerce in the Mediterranean and lead to a resurgence of ISIS" (as is occurring in Iraq and Syria)

• Pt. 2: Meddling Outsiders and Antagonistic/Conflicting Neighbours Around the Mediterranean Sea

The situation in and around the Mediterranean is complex and competitive. This is not a simple case of “bad Turkey” or “bad Libya” as is very commonly presented in the 5 eyes main stream and alternative media. That angle is a carefully crafted, pro empire bias that only serves to manipulate your understanding of what is happening in the region. Much in the way of resource profit and control is at stake. Countries can survive or be further weakened depending on the outcome of this situation

This is one conflict we are aware of. Still, I'd love to read the entire WSJ article- :(If anyone can assist....????
