Democracy?

    Good questions! Power struggle and no strong man initially can bring untold misery.

    When dire consequences can result we tend to pick it up at the same time. I anticipate political instability with the sudden change, after 40 yrs of dictatorship.

    What results will depend on whether the people have actually decided what they ant of if they are just demanding change. If they have no clearcut goals, it will disintegrate into something equally bad or worse.

    Thanks for the thoughtful comments everyone. I fear it has not been thought through at the grass roots. They wanted to get rid of Ghadaffi, but I fear the only organisation with the structure to offer leadership will be the Muslim Brotherhood who may well impose yet another Iran style Theocracy.
    Facing off to a tyrant is one thing, but facing off to Allah requires a much stronger dedication to democracy than I believe is yet possible there!

    I wonder too. I think untold damage has been done to a people who are only now realising they have a voice. I think you're right about the Muslim Brotherhood - I think the Libyan people are used to being oppressed so it will be hard for them to resist any type of theocracy. I guess only time will tell.

    Very often, these people give up before giving the program a real chance to work.
    We know because they have done so for millions of other
    people. Having some company can also make the fitness session more fun.

    Well, as we know world is changing day by day and its every single move in politics, business or even entertainment
    world affects our lives a lot. What is interesting is
    that you get to read news and analysis that give you an entirely different perspective, rarely seen in corporate-sponsored media.
    These websites can be dedicated to particular type of news like
    a few websites are dedicated to entertainment narovide the people with current world news but they face the barrier of space and time.

    This trend brings more enthusiast people to upload the

    utilized easily that are provided by them. Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan had a rough battle, when the movies related to
    them were released at the same time. He covers gossip on celebrities, actors and musicians.

    I'm impressed, I have to admit. Seldom do I come across a blog that's both educative
    and entertaining, and without a doubt, you've hit the nail on the head. The issue is an issue that too few people are speaking intelligently about. Now i'm very happy that I found this in
    my search for something regarding this.

    I leave a leave a response whenever I especially enjoy a article on a site
    or if I have something to contribute to the discussion.
    It is a result of the passion displayed in the post I looked at.

    And on this article "What next for Libya?". I was actually excited enough
    to post a thought ;) I do have a couple of questions for you if you tend not to mind.
    Could it be just me or does it look as if like a few of
    these comments appear as if they are left by brain
    dead visitors? :-P And, if you are posting at other places,
    I'd like to keep up with you. Could you make a list every one of your community pages like your twitter feed, Facebook page or linkedin profile?
