2. AKA - We will kill all the people in order to hold our power
Brian Cohen ,   Judean Peoples Front   (02.21.11)
Another dictator-son is scared that his family's rape of their own nation will cause his downfall. Instead of taking the money and running, he'll fight to the last Libyan to hold on to power. The United Nothing, of course, allowed Libya to be a full member of the UN, just as it allows any disgusting dictator to claim membership - no matter how much he abuses his own people. The joke of it is, of course, that this same Libyan regime that in the past two days apparently shot and killed hundreds of its own citizens - well, it was made a member of the UN's human rights council a few years ago.

Israel Israeli ,   Tel Aviv   (02.21.11)
Thank you for your support. Although it would be nice to think that the protesters would come and help the Jews free Israel from the illegal Arab occupiers, I doubt it will happen. These good people know that cooperation with Israel is the only way for them to achieve freedom and prosperity. Sadly, their protest will eventually be taken over by Islamists or racists like Fatah, both who want to see the Arab people destitute.
8. lol! how very palestinian of him
mike ,   israel (formerly usa   (02.21.11)

9. Western Idiots !.
Orao. ,   Srbia.   (02.21.11)
'Peaceful protests need to be respected' Western countries have expressed concern at the rising violence against demonstrators in Libya. British Foreign Secretary William Hague said he spoke to Seif al-Islam by phone and told him that the country must embark on "dialogue and implement reforms," the Foreign Office said. Susan Rice, the US ambassador to the United Nations, said the Obama administration was "very concerned" about reports that Libyan security forces had fired on peaceful protesters in the eastern city of Benghazi. "We've condemned that violence," Rice told "Meet the Press" on NBC. "Our view is that in Libya, as throughout the region, peaceful protests need to be respected." Comment - So this is Peacefull Protests. Amazing what kind of Idiots there are. Peacefull Protesters taking several Hundreds Deaths in losses, are continuing Their Sacrifices and putting Libya to the brink of Cicil War by Peacefull Demonstarations ? The Selfdeceptions of the Western Usefull Idiots are Endless. This Violent uprising comes from Islamists. and the Westen idiots says it is Peacefull Demonstrators. The Upprising will fail. Orao.Srbia.

14. When will the UNSC have its emergency meeting?
Ilan ,   Ariel   (02.21.11)

18. Life in Libya - a great report.
Terry ,   Eilat - Israel   (02.21.11)
I just read an excellent report that a journalist made after a visit to Libya. You have to read it to believe it. I visited Libya way back in 1978 & I was so shocked by what a backwards, nasty, sh*thole the place was, I got the hell out in three days. At that time, the Libyan gov't. was importing a great deal for their state-run stores. If you paid off the right people, you got the contract & they would approve the most outrageous over-pricing. While I was in Libya, I heard the story of an African businessman who had sold jeans to the Libyans. At the time, it was standard practice to deliver jeans with unfinished bottoms so people could make the length they wanted. This did not please the Libyans who demanded that the jeans be finished. They would not allow the jeans to be returned to the African's factory for finishing - they demanded that he bring sewing machines & workers & finish them in Libya. He offered bribes but they were refused. This poor guy, facing bankruptcy, jumped out of the hotel window to his death. Anyway, you can read a little bit about life in Libya in a report by Michael J. Totten titled, ''In the Land of the Brother Leader.'' on his blog at Pajamas Media.
19. #4 - Freedom Comes First and then Democracy
Doug ,   Rochester, USA   (02.21.11)
not the other way around. The U.S., France, Eastern Europe, Egypt all gained freedom first followed by democracy. It looked like the Pals would be the one exception when they had democratic elections back in 2006 before they had freedom. But their occupier did not like the election results, imprisoned all the Hamas MP's and eliminated the budding democracy.
20. #7 - You have a Real Warped Understanding of History
Doug ,   Rochester, USA   (02.21.11)
"help the Jews free Israel from the illegal Arab occupiers"??? Your mind has been totally destroyed by reading too much Hasbara B.S.
21. The end
olavi ,   espoo, finland   (02.21.11)
The madmen Gaddafis will escape and they will fight only to the end of some stupid supporters.
22. Talk about warped
Linichka ,   Gdynia, Poland   (02.21.11)
I doubt you have a mind to destroy, Dougie. At any rate, concern yourself with the goings-on in your own icy, depressed city and stop your skewed comments about Israel - about which, you clearly know nothing.
23. ANC and Gadhafi
Reuven ,   Israel   (02.21.11)
I wonder how the ANC in South Africa now feel about Gadhafi. Maybe the same way they feel about Mugabe? Couldn't care? Do I sense hypocrisy?
24. #11
eli ,   Yerushalayim   (02.21.11)
Do you mean, because Ghaddafi can't support Israel anymore?
25. This guy Saif is an idiot! Freedom is coming to Libya.
Rich ,   Toronto, Canada   (02.21.11)
The London School of Economics needs to take back that PhD they gave him.
26. REFERRING TO MY DICTIONARY OF DOUBLE-TALK
Ian ,   Newcastle upon Tyne   (02.21.11)
"The armed forces are with him. Tens of thousands are heading here to be with him. We will fight until the last man, the last woman, the last bullet," said Seif al-Islam Gaddafi. The interpretation: We can afford armed thugs and they'll kill protesters to the last man and woman. THREE CHEERS FOR ISRAEL!!!
