<DIV>A few years ago, this kind of uprising happenned but was crushed almost as severly as this time, but then there was no way for the world to know</DIV>
<DIV>what was happenning. The point is that Internet enables real-time communication and sharing.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We are in pain for the people of Libya in face of the atrocities. The people shown courage to face planes, tanks for their right to be free.</DIV>
<DIV>All the best to them.</DIV>
