Apart from the fact that the cause of this accident is as yet unknown, to imply that it was caused because the pilots were Libyan is blatantly racist.
Quite possibly.
Just a couple of years ago, I flew two (Libyan national) Captains from BEN to AMM, so that they could obtain the required entry visa into Taiwan.
Both (as I recall) went to work for EVA, and I don't think that they would have been successful, if they had not been up to snuff.
