The revolutions in Libya are similar, yet different than the events in Egypt. Though what the people want is the same, the government reaction is completely different. The former President of Egypt, Mubarak has stepped down but Ghadafi, the leader of Libya refuses to step down, he will fight until his death making himself a martyr. Protesters did die in Egypt, there was violence, however the turmoil in Libya has seen horrific violent actions directed at the people. To silence the protesters, people have been shot and killed by Ghadafi’s order and he is not willing to stop until the protesters stop. This is a very terrible situation and I hope Ghadafi follows Mubarak’s decision to leave the country for the people.
