They need immediate transportation, to Benghazi's hospital. He's doing better now The really crazy thing is the stories about how guys on the rebel side at the front line walkie talkie back and forth with the Gadaffi soldiers. They want to leave Gadaffi's army, but people literally have guns to their backs and desertion is not tolerated. My cousin was telling me about how one soldier was talking about how he would sneak away, and he said "they saw me!" That was his last transmission. This battle will end. I appreciate the men that are standing their ground, I heard news today that the rebels have actually took Brega, a feat that has taken its toll (over 150 injured, more than a dozen killed). War is brutal, but this is a war of freedom. This country has so much potential. I am extremely excited for the outcome of this revolution. It will happen. It has to. I just hope I dont have to hear anymore of my family, friends, fellow Libyans have had to lose their lives for the cost of freedom.
This is how we see it. The common Libyan makes 300 dinars a month. This from a country that is worth billions, with a population of only 6 million. This from a country whose leader literally goes to countries like italy, and will actually spend 2 billion (yes billion) on farms, real-estate, hotels (he likes to rent the entire hotel when he stays, even though he will sleep in a tent in the front yard) and women in three days. Freedom? Maybe not right away- although we do expect elections. A better way of life? Most definitely..

Its not secret that Gadaffi took control of Libya as a military leader and made no attempt to reinstate any form of governmental system besides his own.
