Much of the posted videos are grim and bloody. This live feed is the only real time eyes-and-ears broadcasting from Benghazi.

Breaking, French aircraft are now conducting air strikes.

Here is probably the best media source:

I don’t believe anything coming from any of them there. The entire muslim world has shown a willingness to lie cheat and steal as a means of achieving their goals.

If this report is true then it sure didn’t take long to go from “No Fly Zone” to air strikes.

Libyan rebellion has radical Islamist fervor: Benghazi link to Islamic militancy:U.S. Military Document Reveals

Well known to the United States policymakers in Obama White House and Clinton State Department along with the National Security Council but not widely known to American mainstream media, the U.S. West Point Military Academy’s Combating Terrorism Center document reveals that Libya sent more fighters to Iraq’s Islamic militancy on a per-capita basis than any other Muslim country, including Saudi Arabia.

Perhaps more alarmingly for Western policymakers, most of the fighters came from eastern Libya, the center of the current uprising against Muammar el-Qaddafi.

The analysis of the Combating Terrorism Center of West Point was based on the records captured by coalition forces in October 2007 in a raid near Sinjar, along Iraq’s Syrian border.

The eastern Libyan city of Darnah sent more fighters to Iraq than any other single city or town, according to the West Point report. It noted that 52 militants came to Iraq from Darnah, a city of just 80,000 people (the second-largest source of fighters was Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, which has a population of more than 4 million).

Benghazi, the capital of Libya’s provisional government declared by the anti-Qaddafi rebels, sent in 21 fighters, again a disproportionate number of the whole.

On Our Present Irresponsible Leadership:

Don’t blame me... I voted with the majority!

Bush is not the son who’s gonna tote the gun.

Guided missiles & misguided men.

They may have elected him president; but who made him emperor?

My parents went to the polls, & all I got was this crummy Orwellian nightmare.

Free speech; not double speak.

Iraq is not the enemy. The enemy lies within.

You’ve stopped the economy; now stop the war.

Undo the coup.

Jail to the thief.

Regime change starts at home.

Democracy & oligarchy don’t mix.

The smoking gun is in the White House.

Preemptive strikes are un-American.

The empty warheads are in the White House.

Preemptive impeachment.

Not in our name!

Restorate Democracy.

Define terrorism.

Our media & government are corporate puppets.

What part of “Thou shall not kill” didn’t you understand?

Corporate crime unit.

How to create 1,000 terrorists? Bomb Iraq.

America, wake up and smell the catastrophe.

We are making enemies faster than we can kill them.

Our first enemies were Indians—different cultures clashed—real world wars of conquest—doesn't matter why or who started it or who was in the right as far as history is concerned—it got bloody and we won and now the descendants of the losers ally themselves with the Left and then used political correctness to get revenge.
The Muslims learned from the Indians in that they first allied themselves with the Left and then used political correctness to soften us up BEFORE the next world war—different cultures clash—real world wars of conquest—doesn't matter why or who started it or who was in the right as far as history is concerned.
Remember,Allah is a deity who blesses his children whether they obey him in murder or in charity.
