Libya’s next step to restoring their country
I had said long ago that this conflict would be over in six months and while the ruling body is now getting its country together, many are still focused on find Muammar Gaddafi. While I can understand their need to locate and secure him, I would like to offer my opinion on what they really should be focusing their efforts on.
According to Maria Golovnina and Sherine El Madany of Reuters in their article Battles erupt around Gaddafi-held towns in Libya, “Muammar Gaddafi loyalists fired rocket barrages at fighters besieging two Libyan towns still under the deposed leader's control on Friday as fierce fighting erupted a day ahead of a deadline for their surrender. They unleashed volleys of Grad rockets at forces of Libya's National Transitional Council (NTC) north of Bani Walid and east of Gaddafi's home town, Sirte, Reuters witnesses said. The NTC has given Bani Walid, 150 km (95 miles) southeast of Tripoli, and the coastal city of Sirte until Saturday to give up peacefully or face attack -- although previous deadlines have been extended to allow more time for talks. The latest battles were the heaviest in days, but NTC commanders did not say they had begun any all-out assault.”
