Upset of Libya

The Upset of Libya

Roaming the streets in the country of Libya, angered civilians are restless because of the ongoing explosions and gunshots heard throughout the day and night. Rebellion is what has been going on in Libya since February 15^th of 2011. The people in that nation have become a threat to their dictator, Muammar Qaddafi. They suffered many attacks and became victims of bombings, shootings, and abuse of their human rights.

After a 42 reign of Qaddafi’s dictatorship his people finally had enough of his mistreatment and abuse. This is understandable because no human-being should be stripped of their human rights. As individuals everyone deserves to be treated fairly and equally. Qaddafi was engaged in doing the opposite and therefore the rebellion of Libya immersed and has been in continuation until this day.

If Qaddafi continues in power this fight for freedom will never come to an end. The values that Qaddafi holds do not coincide with those of a peaceful nation. There is virtually two ways in getting Libya in becoming a peaceful place once again. First way would be if Qaddafi resigns his power and steps out of office on his own will without a fight. The second way is as same as effective but more violent, which involves using lethal forces and killing Qaddafi and his sons.

With the response to the rebellion and Qaddafi being in power, over 1,000 Libyan civilians were killed and the numbers continue to rise as the days go by. In order to keep the number of deaths from escalating Qaddafi must be removed from power, this reason being so that the people of Libya can become freed of the suffering and can have free will.

In short, the main problem behind the rebellion of Libya is in fact not the people but instead it is the dictator, Qaddafi. In order to liberate the civilians, the nation of Libya needs to get rid of the dictator and should follow a democratic structure in the way of government. The easiest and peaceful way to accomplish this is by Qaddafi resigning on his own will. Peace is needed and possible to acquire, getting to it is what makes the situation difficult.
