Why is Libya’s own different.


The whole saga started from Tunisia to Egypt till it reached Libya’s turn. The story then changed. What started as a street demonstration against the Muammar Ghaddafi’s regime of 42 years gradually degenerated into full blown civil war between the government troops and the anti Ghaddafi troops. Each passing day also presented a different kind of scenario. Conflicting reports of the victory between the two warring groups are received daily with none being confirmed. However, the crisis has revealed some new secrets each day too. Just the other day, it was revealed how Ghaddafi solicited from African traditional rulers to crown him king of king of Africa. Today, another revelation by Saif Gaddafi, Ghaddafi’s son turned spokesman, that Libya sponsored the 2007 re-election of the French President, Nicolas Sarkozy has made everyone dump. One starts to wonder what tomorrow will reveal out of Libya’s case.
