Benghazi units prepare to liberate Tripoli


In "liberated" eastern Libya, people are queuing to join units of the armed forces that plan to go westwards to rescue protesters in Tripoli from Ghaddafi's terror.

Benghazi, Libya's second city and the focus of unrest, has been a scene of celebrations for the last few days, after army units united with protesters and made it the centre of "liberated Libya." People have danced in the streets, sent up fireworks and even returned their arms to the military as popular committees have brought new order to the city.

2011 Libyan protests - Libyan opposition


The 2011 Libyan protests began as a series of protests and confrontations occurring in the North African state of Libya against the Government of Libya and its de facto leader Muammar al-Gaddafi. The unrest began on 15 February 2011 and continues to the present. Media outlets have reported the unrest as being inspired by the uprisings in Egypt and Tunisia, connecting the protests with the wider 2010–2011 Middle East and North Africa protests.[4] According to Richard Engel, NBC News Chief Foreign Correspondent, who entered Libya and had reached the city of Tobruk on 22 February 2011, "the protest movement is no longer a protest movement, it's a war. It's open revolt."[5] On 22 February, The Economist described the events as an "uprising that is trying to reclaim Libya from the world's longest-ruling autocrat."[6]

The opposition includes organised groups, participants in the 2011 mass protests and demonstrations, Libyan diplomats that no longer support the Gaddafi-led government and Libyan military units that have switched sides to support the protestors.

Gaddafis zerstrittene Sippe


Sie zanken um Milliarden und politischen Einfluss: Die Kinder des libyschen Diktators sind sich spinnefeind. Die von WikiLeaks veröffentlichten US-Depeschen zeichnen ein erschreckendes Bild vom Innenleben des Gaddafi-Clans - von Gier, Gewalt und Intrige.

EU und USA gegenüber Libyen zahnlos - Es bleibt bei „scharfer Kritik“ - Obama: Welt soll „mit einer Stimme sprechen“


Schon zu Beginn der dramatischen Umwälzungen in der arabischen Welt waren USA und EU von den Ereignissen völlig überrascht worden. Und auch jetzt, angesichts des brutalen Vorgehens des Regimes von Staatschef Al-Gaddafi gegen die Proteste in Libyen, hat man, abgesehen davon, die Gewalt „aufs Schärfste“ zu verurteilen, wenig zu bieten: US-Präsident Obama sagte in einem Statement, das Blutvergießen sei inakzeptabel. Aber Rücktrittsaufforderungen an Al-Gaddafi kamen ebenso wenig wie konkrete Maßnahmen. Und auch die EU schaffte es nicht, sich auf Sanktionen zu einigen.
