For the first time I realized the importance of following-up the enemy opposition media, that was when my aunt husband warned me of the presence Al Tahrir square a day before the Colt’s day [‘Camel Battle ], “ they are shipping , thugs and ignorant against all people in Al Tahrir, they are preparing for a dirty operation against people in Al Tahrir”. After the Battle of the colt [‘Camel Battle’] in Al Tahrir Square, I insisted to follow up on the opposition media of the other parties, between rhetoric and lies that lacks logic and aimed at weak-minded to believe it, we can discern their despicable intentions, goals and purposes.

In Libya, the situation is no different than others Gaddafi and his tyrant crew and his killers have stepped up the media attack on the revolution and distortion of the rebels, moreover they surpassed their meanness and characteristics on the men and youth of the Revolution, In the early days of this violent revolution, Gaddafis’s media insisted on Ignore the blood that was shed and the bodies, he did not even bother to say that there is unrest in Benghazi as if he was waiting to repress this revolution in its beginning and buried in its infancy.

Gaddafi, employed all his channels to serve his brutal war against life and liberty, the News Ticker sometimes ask the rebels to lay down their weapons and sometimes threaten them with death and murder, sometimes describing them as traitors and mercenaries and other times describing them with armed gangs who are affiliated to Al Qaeda
Gaddafi in his war’s media does not admit what his troops are doing with the Libyan people of killing , destroying and crushing. As if it was not enough to him the prison and forced home arrest of foreign journalists in Tripoli , but as well providing them with distorted and false news that does not reflect reality and does not come close to the truth. Sometimes cheering his troops in a huge demonstration on the Zawia city borders declaring the invasion of the city to find out after 5 days ago that the city was under the continuing violent bombing of the buildings and the population and that hundreds of dead lying in the streets.

Drop weapon was Gaddafi’s best war against the rebels and which was repeated several times, so he exploited the video shows his soldiers who repelled and repulsed while they attacked the city of Misrata and were burned in their vehicles for للتلقفة on his anchors such as Hala Al Misuraty who said that the martyrs soldiers were killed by criminal units which slaughtered them and then cut them apart, as if these angel soldiers were sent by God to rid the Misurata of savages and as if they were not enjoying bombing Misurata with their Tanks till stopped by the rebels who ruined it and set on fire!

Gaddafi did not hesitate to show the video that showed the world the horror, brutality and criminality of his right arm man “Abdullah Sanusi, ” who killed and then set fire of the military officers and Officers Row, who refused to shoot demonstrators in Al Kotaieba , then he announced that these were a loyal faithful officers who were killed by al-Qaeda.

“Today we killed you in Bin Jawad, and tomorrow we will kill you in Ras Lanouf, and the day after tomorrow in Ajdabiya and Benghazi, ” that was one of Gaddafi soldiers speaking in English to the media, declaring to the world that they were victorious, but that was a full day before the battle of the Ras Lanouf! The media play still repeated as if Gaddafi cameras shooting are ahead of time and battles

His anchors doesn’t stop laying “The Egyptian activist who was arrested by Gaddafi’s forces who did not hesitate to display him as one of Al-Qaeda pillars . this young man have not reached the age of 20 years, from medic to the injured on the battlefronts un capable of bearing weapons to one of Al Qaeda leaders, this young man who came from Egypt to lead the rebels to destroy Libya’s safe?

Youth Rebels were addicts for ecstasy one time, and other time they were not raised by their families on good manners and ethics. Sometimes these young people were deceived by Al-Qaeda, as if to denounce that these young people can woke up and ask for their right to live freely

The Benghazi court demonstrators, after they were abusers of ecstasy, they have become as pre paid Egyptians who were imported to hold professional demonstration, said, “Saif al-Gaddafi, ” They are not Lybian.

“God, Libya, Muammar that’s all” These are the screams that emerges from Gaddafi supporters on his television channels, as if of Libya will not exist unless Muammar exist. These trends are released more from the children. The children demonstrations that supports Gaddafi in his TV’s channels are more than adults channels.

Calls for an amnesty of armed young men to surrender their weapons are barely removed from Gaddafi screen channels. But does Gaddafi and his assistants know that the brutality and barbarism of his troops will only let people be more weaponry to meet Gaddafi and his troops. Calls are now no longer just for revenge, but moved to defend the honor and families after everyone knew what Gaddafi troops did s in the cities that they bombed with missiles and aircraft.

The distorted media doesn’t hesitate on adding conflicts between the Libyans . one time they use tribal prejudices in order to ignite the flames of civil war, as if not satisfied with the bloodshed!
Gaddafi supported media took advantage of all the dirty weapons in the projection of mutilation, obfuscation, lies, humiliation and marginalization of the Liberals trying to destabilize and discredit the concepts and terrorize innocent people, spread sedition, find a rationale and justification for the massacres to cover up his crimes in the cities that he crush and crushes.

He once described the rebels as rats he broadcasts a statement on the cleansing of the cities from the “armed gangs”. Surely the Gaddafi troops perish the wounded rebels from the battle field in response to hints of their leader, “Eradication of Rats”
Gaddafi’s media insists on directing the speech to the doesn’t exist people. His actors and extras who appear over and over in the Green Square and some of the Libyan cities to try to declare that all of Libya is supporting Gaddafi, while ignoring the fact that Tripoli a large cell and the number of hostages increase.

Maybe Gaddafi’s media did not exceed the limits of time to an extinct viewer, in the era of suppression of speech, opinion, and rights, he also surpassed the military standards moves to announce the acquisition of cities which are still under the rebels authority. His target was to destroy morale and souls, but also seems to be beyond the parallel worlds” as In science fiction, talking about another Libya than that we see and know.

At the day before the announcement of BBC team that they were beaten and tortured in Tripoli by the Gaddafi troops of Homeland Security, I saw the Mr. “Firas Al Kilani” between two giant human surrounding him and questioning him violently, “Do you see millions behind you who are cheering for the commander of the ” and he said “Yes “. This was on the Al Jamahiriya channel or as Liberal Libyans calling it “Al Qanouzah”
