Chaos in Libya

 So it's heating up in Libya. CNN managed to get a reporter in, but he only calls in, no footage from him yet. But at least they got someone in! Gaddafi says people from the outside are stirring things up in Libya, but the people in Libya know better than anyone what a tyrant he is, and they don't need other people to tell them that. I think it was definately a domino effect starting from Tunisia, it gave Libya the courage to start protesting. Only it's a lot worse in Libya. The military are bombing their own people, on orders from the 'leader'. I am currently listening to Gaddafi waffling on, he's saying things like he'll die as a martyr, and even having the nerve to mention Omar Al-Mukhtar! If he was alive today, he would be very upset at the state of Libya, and all these years that the people have suffered. He also keeps mentioning his grandfather, whatever!

 Omar Al-Mukhtar was a true hero of Libya, he died for Libya. Gaddafi will only die because of himself, because he is evil.

We actually had a protest in my town yesterday!! It was outside the university, my uncle is a student there so he joined the protestors. I say they should have told more people though, there wasn't a lot of people present! Perhaps if they had gotten women to join in? That's kind of annoying, because I know the men wouldn't want us there, but we want to show our support for Libya.

 One good thing that seems to have come from this, is the media is finally reporting on what really happens in Libya. People taken in as political prisoners and murdered, or relatives mysteriously disappearing. Also I notice more people around me taking an interest in politics and news for once!! People should always keep an eye out on the news, I'm not saying trust it 100%, but you shouldn't live under a rock either. I was always interested in politics, even from being a young teenager. I don't know why, but I reckon it's served me well, and helps me understand what is going on with our government, and also other governments around the world. But you should at least know what goes on in your own country from day to day.

Long live Libya! Please pray for our brothers and sisters.
