#3 Most Memorable Moment of Feb 17 Liberation of Abu Salim Prison, Tripoli
Posted on February 17, 2012 by KLN1
One of the most shocking videos of the entire revolution. This is raw video of the freeing of the infamous Abu Sleem Prison. Abu Sleem Prison is the location where the Gaddafi regime has placed his political prisoners for over 40 years, from all parts of Libya East, West, North, South. It is the location of the Abu Sleem massacre In which Gaddafi forces killed 1,200 political prisoners in ONE day. And as of recently, it is the location where thousands upon thousands of captured freedom fighters and protesters have been placed since the beginning of the revolution. The only crime these individuals were guilty of was speaking out against the regime. This is their moment of freedom. The sweetest breath of freedom that one could image. All praises to God.

Washington) The United States government during the Bush administration tortured opponents of Muammar Gaddafi, then transferred them to mistreatment in Libya, according to accounts by former detainees and recently uncovered CIA and UK Secret Service documents, Human Rights Watch said in a report released today. One former detainee alleged he was waterboarded and another described a similar form of water torture, contradicting claims by Bush administration officials that only three men in US custody had been waterboarded.
