As everyone knows most countries of the Middle East have been in a chain series of protests to pressure their leaders into resignation. It started with Tunisia, Egypt, Bahrain, and now Libya. In Egypt, President Hosni Mubarak resigned after a long time of pressure from the citizens. The different thing in Libya is that the President Gaddafi is using force to prevent the protests in Libya. It is estimated that around 800 people were killed from the governmental forces. They were using bullets and tanks against their own citizens! How could that be, how could the leader kill his own people like that. He tried to even bomb a part of Western Libya and many Libyans are in fear. The UN and US are helping out. In fact, Us sent some ferries to transport the Libyans away from danger. I don't know whats going to happen in the future but we'll see soon. I pray for the safety of all the innocent people there, especially since my friend is living in Benghazi, Libya.
