So, poor people in Tripoli tried to make demonstrations after Firday prayer today, but they were faced by direct shooting by Qaddhafi gang. At least, 5 were killed, according to Reuters, and others ran away.
awwwwwww the poor bastard is depressed?!?! how the hell will they send him lovely pictures if the people dont have internet thanks to him shutting down the service?!?! i can only imagine what will people want to send him may be then he will realize the entire world hates him and he should do what he vowed to do in his speech today and just roll over and die since no one likes him any more apart from the soldiers in civilan clothes that he rounded up to be his crowd in todays speech.
the people they interviewed today said the exact same thing about this move!! i think they said they r trying to hide evidences of there dirty work. i also heard sth scary from one of the people who lost a son in these demonstrations. he told the people in al-arrabiyah that when they sent for him to come to the morgue to collect the body they told him to sign a paper that he died of natural causes and he describes how the people who demand this are the mercenaries who are loaded with weapons.
I'm really ashamed and angry at the limited and indecisive responses from the so called "developed countries" in regard to the crimes going unpunished in Libya.I hope the people will bring down the detestable regime ASAP and there will be no more innocent victims .
The Italian prime minister, Silvio Berlusconi, says Gaddafi does not seem to be in control of Libya anymore. Berlusconi, Gaddafi's strongest European ally, told a political meeting in Rome: "It appears that, effectively, Gaddafi no longer controls the situation in Libya."
Most residents of the Libyan capital remain in doors, terrified of bands of armed civilians running checkpoints and patrolling the city.
A 40-year-old business owner said he had seen Gadhafi supporters enter one of the regime's Revolutionary Committee headquarters Saturday and leave with arms.
He said the regime is offering a car and money to any supporters bringing three people with them to join the effort.
"Someone from the old revolutionary committees will go with them so they'll be four," the witness said when reached by telephone from Cairo. "They'll arm them to drive around the city and terrorize people."
Other residents reported seeing trucks full of civilians with automatic rifles patrolling their neighborhoods. Many of the men are young, even teenagers, and wear green arm bands or cloths on their heads to show their affiliation to the regime, residents said.

this is getting complicated with every minute to be honest. its def very different to egypt and tunisa where it was'nt a city by city revolution its all in one place and it spreads not the other way around.
what do u think will happen rebel? do u think the people will move into tripoli and it ends the way it ends or what bec i cant think of another idea unless some one near ghaddafi is strong enough to shoot him and get it over with.
there was an opinion i heard from a libyan officer in charge of an air base and he said that the rest of the cities that have fallen into the control of people should decide on a new government and by this its complete acknowledgment that ghaddafi is no more.
