Abdi Salan has little choice, agreeing to spend $150 for a hot meal, two nights' lodging and a jeep ride north to Benghazi, Libya's second-largest city. The Kufra smugglers convince him that there he can obtain a foreigner identity card, to avoid any trouble with the Libyan authorities. It will cost another $40, and he now has just over $1,000 left.
