Libya is trying to make a new identity for itself after 6 months of fighting people are sick of fighting. And their ruler Muammar Qaddafi is no longer their ruler like Obama said. But Libyans have already announced policies of national reconciliation, and set up plans to prevent any more violence .The six months of fighting have given Libyans time to awaken to the possibility of democracy in their country.And they want to have democracy so all people could have equal rights and can have their own elections,their own military rights.And they also have the advantage that they have oil wealth, they have small population, they have millions in their funds and also tourists come to see the Mediterranean beaches in Libya so the country gets enough money to start over again.And i think Libya is doing the right thing, they have to start thinking about their democracy because it's really hard to live in an environment which isn't open minded, they need to treat each other equally and give rights to both men and women, because women also play a huge role in the society.
EXTRA CREDIT: The American revolution was about those 13 colonies getting their freedom from England so they could have their own democracy. Those 13 colonies didn't wanted the British to rule over them on their own country and my topic which is "Libya re-imagining itself" is the same thing Libya wants to have democracy it wants to be free and it doesn't want any other country deciding for them and they don't want to their individual rights because of some other country. And right now America is taking most of the decisions for Libya like firing their President just because U.S thought Libya is supporting terrorism, even tough they didn't even have any proof , its just not right Libya is an individual country, its supposed to have its own freedom and the right to do whatever they want. The same thing happened in the American revolution just because the colonies didn't get equal rights , they had to fight for their democracy.And if Libya gets it democracy it might raise the prices of its oil supply to US and it can affect the financial state of America.
