Libya's new rulers declare country liberated

www.bbc.co.uk

I call on everyone for forgiveness, tolerance and reconciliation. We must get rid of hatred and envy from our souls. This is a necessary matter for the success of the revolution and the success of the future Libya.

Mr Abdul Jalil said the new Libya would take Islamic law as its foundation. Interest for bank loans would be capped, he said, and restrictions on the number of wives Libyan men could take would be lifted.

I cant help but start think when I read this, here we go again.

The first paragraph, I was impressed but then came.....

Restrictions on the number of wives Libyan men could take would be lifted.

So they have just set up a new order and one of the first things is this?? In what way, in the 20th Century is this even a good thing?

A chance for complete equality, an oil rich state with infrastructure, the opportunity to create a wonderful place with good Universities, holiday resorts, great shops and a really free culture, but no, we will impose Islamic Law, men can take brides.

I am sure unlimited number of wives is just the start of removing womens rights, which is the start of a controlling society and not at all good for the future.

....and here comes the opening stages of the 21st century Caliphate. Only a few minor changes and adjustments left to be done and they'll have it. Oh goody...I'm so thrilled.

I started a thread discussing this here but it's been relegated to the WW3 forum for some reason. I don't think it has a thing to do with WW3 but there you go. Giving you a bump because I think it's an important issue.

That is exactly what happened in Iraq and Afghanistan, even Afghanistan was more open to Christianity under their own extremist Islam, now since US occupation and "liberation" all the Christian churches has been destroyed and is illegal to worship anything but Islam. Women are still abuse.

In Iraq women used to hold jobs and Saddam was secular, now is Islam law only.

But is ok as long as the puppet governments are good and nice to the US government, screw the women, screw freedoms everything is ok, both nations now cater to sharia law and fundamentalist Islam

Libya will be no better.

So much for liberation.

Nice Staged Cheering Crowds, they look small and i see just a few women, but alot of male fighters, you can tell in those pictures in the news report, that the rebels are pushing people to join into the crowds.

Sad day for Libya, this was expected though.

Yeah, strange that, wonder if I will end up in WW3?

Some good responses on your thread, perhaps if they didnt have Oil and cash to buy weapons we could just leave Africa and the Middle East to themselves to live in medievil Sharia Law, but since we have kicked, bombed and raped the hornets nest there is no chance of that.

Unfortunately, the die is cast and there is no way out, are you interested in where it will end?
