libya issues

Anybody remember Gaddafi's 19-year-old "girl executioner," Nisreen al-Forgani? After the fall of Tripoli, she was shown to the world media, shackled to a hospital bed, explaining her sins. She'd been forced into the "popular gaurds," raped by its director Mansour Daw, abused and stuff and...

After reading about the atrocities committed against poor African workers and other Gadaffi supporters including Gadaffi himself I wonder if the free world should have helped them. What I hear and see about them is pretty barbaric. http://wsws.org/articles/2011/mar2011/rebe-m31.shtml

Hi. I saw this: http://news.yahoo.com/libyas-transitional-leader-declares-liberation-155513082.html Iran, anyone?

Didn't see one yet, so... Maybe 4/5 or more of Tripoli really is in rebel hands as they say. But the area around the Rixos hotel is still in government hands, and so is Seif al-Islam. The BBC just heard from him: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-africa-14625516 He said in fact the rebels had...

Libya is a dark and brutal place which has been run by a filthy little fascist for the last 40 years. That's longer than I've been alive. When NATO intervened to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe it was obvious that morally cretinous ideologues would be lining up to run interference for...

Hi. I saw this: http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=23920 Is this correct? How much of the information we get about what's going on in Libya is accurate? Is there any way to get direct, hard facts from on the ground, without any middleman? With all this seemingly conflicting...
