The best we can hope for now is that whoever succeeds Gaddafi isn’t an islamist.
.Gadhafi militia open fire on Libya protesters
BENGHAZI, Libya – Militias loyal to Moammar Gadhafi opened fire on protesters streaming out of mosques in the Libyan capital on Friday, demanding the regime’s ouster, witnesses said, reporting at least four killed. Across rebellious cities in the east, tens of thousands held rallies in support of the first Tripoli protests in days.
Protesters chanting for Gadhafi’s ouster streamed out of mosques near downtown Tripoli’s Green Square and other districts after prayers, and they were confronted by troops and militiamen who opened fire, said several witnesses. Gunmen on rooftops in streets near the square shot down on marchers, they said.
One witness reported seeing three protesters killed in the Souq al-Jomaa area near the square, and another reported a fourth death in another district, Fashloum. The reports could not be immediately confirmed.
“There are all kind of bullets,” said one protester near the Souq al-Jomaa, screaming in a telephone call to The Associated Press, with the rattle of shots audible in the background.
“The situation is chaotic in parts of Tripoli now,” said another witness, who was among marchers in adjacent Algeria Square and said he saw militiamen firing in the air. Armed Gadhafi supporters were also speeding through some streets in vehicles, he said. Residents hiding in their homes also reported the sound of gunfire in other parts of the capital.

Aren’t they all islamists over there one way or the other?
Haha. While I will hope and pray for that, I see no chance of that not happening.
The army will probably take over from Qaddafi. But writing a democratic constitution is a tall order for a nation that has never known democracy.
Qaddafi apparently misread the import of the Tunisian and Egyptian revolutions and thought he could ride out the storm. It turned out to be a fatal miscalculation.
Once people stopped being afraid, the tide turned despite all the power the state had on its side against an unarmed population.
And the feeling for people is an exhilarating one. They never thought this day would come. The dictator turned out to be no match for them.
Why would folks that practice Islam vote for an un Islamic governance? What was that West said about sunshine and skittles?
No it’s time to face reality.
Obama is busy helping the Islamist surround Israel.
But You can bet Your House and Car that Muslim Mullahs will take over! Unfortunately!

Ends that hope I think...
I have that same unsettling feeling about Egypt and Yemen as well.
It will go Islamist/Sharia. If not immediately, then within 1-2 years. Same with Egypt and the other nations under siege. None of this is coincvidental and it’s certainly not a grassroots ‘snowball’ effect, either. And Obathturd is up to his big clown ears in it.
M-U-S-L-I-M
...they are ALL Islamists!
