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]
Libyan opposition
The Libyan opposition is a generic term used to refer to groups opposed to the government of Muammar al-Gaddafi. 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.
