Issue topic

My issue is about the current state of the african country of Libya. They are currently going through a major revolution against their oppressive dictator, Moammar Gaddafi. The recent revolution in egypt helped spark the demand for change in Libya. After the countries neighbor forced out their leader, the Libyan people appear to have also had enough. Moammar Gaddafi is a power hungry Dictator that has ruled the country with an iron fist, and his current mental state is questionable. Here are some links about the current situation in libya:
