NATO continues broadcast of propaganda messages to Libyan navy

Here is the transcript of a PSYOPS propaganda message broadcast by the USAF EC-130J of the 193 SOS, operating out of Souda Bay, Crete. The transcript was provided by aviation expert David Cenciotti and the Dutch radio ham @FMCNL.

"It is particularly interesting since it invites, in both American and Arabic languages, sailors and naval officers of a Libyan ship to leave the vessel and return to their families," David Cenciotti wrote in his blog.
