Libyan Riots March 2006
Elements of the government helped initiate the riots after the Italian foreign minister Roberto Calderoli wore a t-shirt offensive to Muslims. The momentum gained by the oppressed population in Benghazi later turned into anti-government riots. A curfew was put in place and the Army was brought in to suppress the riots. At least 31 people were killed and hundreds more were arrested and tortured for weeks. www.stopqaddafi.org

Video of Libya Army troops joining anti-Gaddafi protesters in Benghazi
Amateur video supplied by Libyan opposition groups is said to show the moment the army stationed in the Ghar Younis barracks at the outskirts of Benghazi joined the protesters in the city on February 21, 2011. Libya's leader Colonel Gaddafi is desperately clinging to power despite facing more defections from his own rule. He's battling to shore up control of the capital Tripoli and western areas, with protesters consolidating gains in the east of the country. Gaddafi told state TV that Osama Bin Laden and his followers are to blame for the uprising, and claimed protesters were given drugs to incite them to revolt. The overall number of dead after ten days of unrest has been difficult to determine, with estimates ranging from several hundred to over two thousand.

Video of bloody Libya unrest as protests rage in Tripoli, Benghazi
Libyans are digging their heels in protests in key cities - despite the violent response from the police as they try to curb the anti-government demonstrations. World leaders are rounding on Libyan authorities - calling for an immediate end to the clashes. Increasing numbers of protesters are demanding for an end to the 41-year rule of Colonel Gaddafi. Hundreds have been killed and over a thousand injured during a week of unrest, with reports of airstrikes from the country's own military on Monday. Rumours spread that the Libyan leader had fled the trouble, but Gaddafi later made a brief and defiant TV appearance saying he was still in the country. One of his sons blamed exiles and outsiders for pushing Libya to the brink of civil war, and denied that live ammunition was being used on demonstrators. Some Libyan ambassadors have quit over the use of force on civilians in protest, and want the UN to intervene.

Bilderberg Group in Libya Tripoli Global Elite Conquer Arab World ''Government buildings are reported to be on fire in the Libyan capital Tripoli as demonstrators demand an end to the 41-year rule of Colonel Gaddafi. The son of the Libyan leader blamed opposition groups and outsiders for instigating the protests. The army is reported to be using live ammunition against demonstrators, with international organisations putting the current death toll at over 200.
