country moving towards should be a long which of course is a very hard by no islamic way of leading the country at the same time just recent elections in tunisia where official results are expected to come in that later on tuesday but so far it looks like the leading party that will take over most of the positions in parliament will be and is for mr hardee the ennahda party so it really is something that in a way is ironic i think it's fair to say the west very strongly pushing for these so-called democracies to be born i may not play out the way they actually wanted but again huge challenges ahead for libya and most people here are certainly basking in the celebration of the down is just a few of them it seems seems really thinking about what that means for the future of libya the cars of liberation are loud and clear. looks like a state of euphoria here where everybody is happy. you know. even though there is
8:03 am
no formal you know law and order but are they ignoring the price paid for freedom in libya some thirty thousand civilians are said to have been killed with four thousand still missing this house was one of nato's misses a single family lost five people including children when. they pulled joy to all governments but no one toss it in who is going to rebuild my house who will compensate honest follows much of the country's infrastructure has been destroyed finding water is now a serious challenge in the capital when you don't have running supplies and try to collect what they can. have a family with six kids we knew what to do the leave to come here every day and get water is very difficult. even bombed the electric station and then well lead for ten days they haven't fixed the problem at least we can come here for now. but

maybe not much longer. before the war libya could boast one of the best living standards on the continent with high life expectancy and low tiled mortality rates but after months of heavy bombing and fierce fighting the country's social and economic achievements have been brutally reversed its people now betting on a heavily armed and inexperienced group to govern them through a fresh start in the wake of destruction ali asked us not to reveal his face fearing who might pay for saying this. that if you talk or see anything positive about gadhafi you will have serious problems with the rebels there is no government i'm speaking out on to the end of you he tells me if people were truly happy about the end of gadhafi and the way he was killed there would be millions not thousands on the streets to get their free movies i'm sure some sixty to seventy percent of the country does not approve of the way gadhafi was killed we expected them to be
8:05 am
tried as a prisoner of war not killed like what we're told in new libya there would be justice when he was the head of this country and there was no justice in the way he was killed i have no hope for the future but it's just the beginning don't you think that it could get better with time but things will take time to change in the country. where you have been one i think there will be a lot of fighting in the future right now and jamal and some armor there is fighting going on between tribes and anyone with a went on has power who can do what they want. so many celebrate this new era in libya's history people like me are quietly bracing for the worst. and he's now a r.c. tipperary. is continuing our coverage from libya online or on a personal twitter feed oh we can have a look right now and see what he's doing and what is. latest tweets she posted images of a libyan kids rummaging through what's left of colonel gadhafi arsenal and lots of

other comments on and he put it right. but i sense the fall of gadhafi the true nature of his relations with the western leader and says let's see rather uncomfortable questions mark almond a visiting professor in international relations at bill kent university and believes the late dictator could have blown the cover off some murky details if he was still alive to two basic types of secrets the rule the allocations of his in who to terrorism movies look at the moment we could no never know what he would say whether he told the truth or littleness will never hear his testimony and then of course he was restored to think of the truth three and one business deals with the response of the depressed brutishness tony blair of britain whose influence for those who lived we must ask how was your solution to the don't. you see. the. dealing with this constant.

would go away precisely because of this one sort of situation position who probably group thinks it national review not be a great relief for these western leaders who is gadhafi and he's disappeared from the sea it could lead to a situation as it were there is another today here in our financial guru max kaiser and coast states you have to discuss what would have happened to colonel gadhafi if he was pushed not to the wall but to wall street is a preview of what's coming your way at three thirty pm g.m.t. . if moammar gadhafi had gotten on a jet landed on wall street so at some point the last three months he would have been immediately put on the board of directors of j.p. morgan they would have given him a multi-billion dollar bonus and he would be doing fantastic he would be on all the talk shows talking about his plan to monetize this country's assets in the greater good of a global oil kleptocratic dream state of never ending gusher
