We had a very long, sleepless night spent between watching reports on television and on the internet, and running outside in the garden, where we strained our ears to listen to the far off sounds of gunfire and car horns. And then the shock of listening to 'the speech'. Disbelief at what was being said. What day is it, I wondered, surely it's not the first of April yet!
It ain't over 'til the fat lady sings. . . . .
Oh Libyans... Stay safe!.... no pun intended!
Hopefully it all turns out ok and you and your family stay safe. I'ts hard to imaging what you're going thru over there from so far away here in Australia. Good luck and look after yourself and Family. Rob.
ReplyDeleteStay safe Khadija... all world is following Libya events... my heart is there...
ReplyDeleteOur Ukud and his sons are ready to kill us. Wake up Libyans!!!!
ReplyDeleteHere in Virginia we are following the news from Libya as best we can but CNN etc haven't been able to get in there to cover what is happening so it is up to the locals inside to get out the word. I'm sure all your readers wish you and your famly safe and well.
ReplyDeleteKhadija: I pray that you and all your family stay safe.

This group is working very hard to get information out to the world about what is happening in Libya, www.libyafeb17.com. The images and accounts are horrifying.
ReplyDeleteAngry of loosing our peaceful Kingdom
ReplyDeleteTo blood thirsty & a thief of our freedom
Gaddafi - a filthy name means turmoil
As we watch him scavenge on our oil
We said enough & our blood starts to boil
Brave Libyans are rioting wave after wave
Lined up, can’t wait to piss on his grave
He’ll be cornered & wont get off our hook
Burn him over bonfire of his green book
Libya O’ Libya to hell with our Dick-tator
Choke his sons like a dying carburetor
Poison to him & to his daughter a vibrator
Fighting evil so whatever will be will be
Revenge time, we’ll avenge you Lockerbie

Although I wish to remain anynomous, I too am in Libya. Last night we were going up on the roof of our villa listening to the gunfire when a car stopped on the street below us and began firing their guns. Our hearts were racing when we ran back inside.
ReplyDeleteI am scheduled to fly out today.
My prayers are with your family, and your country. I see the stress in the eyes of the Libyan people.
God bless
From the UK we are watching horrified, and wish you and the people of Libya peace, prosperity and safety!

ReplyDeleteThe latest developments are a bit worrying but hopefully it will be over soon. Try to record what you can - I am sure you will want to remember it in the years to come. Most importantly, stay safe!
