Talk:Libya

Lead rewrite

The lead currently summarises the geography of the country, its economy and development and recent (2011-) history. It needs to be expanded with a summary of Libya's history, its culture and demographics (including religion and ethnic groups). -- Hazhk ^{Talk to me} 22:42, 3 September 2013 (UTC)

Green Resistance

Should there be part of the page talking about the Green Resistance? I ask because they seem to be a major political and military presence in Libya. They have ambushed convoys, raided bases, brought entire cities such as Bani Walid under their control,assassinated high ranking government officials, and bombed many targets. They claim to control most of southern Libya. They also claim to have 90'000 combatants amend the support of the majority of Libyans.Red and black partisan (talk) 18:49, 22 October 2013 (UTC)

Of course there should be, and not just that, the whole article embraces the idea that Libya was somehow "liberated" due to the events that started Feb. 11, instead of being re-occupied. That should be corrected since no "liberation" of any sort took place. The Great Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriya has a majority of the people to back her up (which laready proofs the idea of a 'liberation' of Libya to be completely false and in contrast with the facts).

Feb 11 "revolution" -- liberation or occupation?

There is clearly a big fog about the events that took place in Libya since this so-called Feb.11 "revolution", which is cited in the article as being a "liberation" (instead of a more proper designation as "occupation" as many of those so called rebels were foreign fighters, paied for by Qatar, most of them from Al Qaeda and clearly had an imperialist agenda in overthrowing one of the last remaining socialist states).

Clearly, such approaches are very biased, and reflect the western imperialist media propaganda, but are not very well founded on evidence on the ground.

The new "government" has not and will not succeed in controlling the country. Instead rebel militias are de facto controlling the country. The government services have collapsed, causing breaks in electricity deliveries, water deliveries, and so on. Basic security is lacking, due to militias that don't operate under governmemnt control. Oil production never recovered to the pre-2011 levels. De facto the east part (Benghazi) has formed her own oil companies and is no longer part of Libya.

Democracy in Libya is just a farce and part of western media propaganda. Libya today is more like a failed state controlled by rival militias.

The Green resitance are still fighting, esp. in the south, and in many cities all over Libya the Green Flag has been raised. Robheus (talk) 19:16, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

Government

Considering the Libyan parliament was sacked by a rogue general who now presents himself as the head of a Libyan version of SCAF, I think we should probably note that the government of Libya is disputed in the infobox and article. -Kudzu1 (talk) 01:06, 23 May 2014 (UTC)

Berber

I do this edit, because the "Berber language" is not official, to be added along with the Arabic language

Secondly, all the Libyans speak Arabic (Libyan dialect), and there are no other languages ​​used --41.254.31.59 (talk) 08:20, 2 June 2014 (UTC)
