Arabische Welt im Umbruch
Kaum einer kennt Sie, besteht ja erst seit 1945.
Grundziele gleichen der der EU. Einheit, gemeinsames Wirtschaften, Kulturerhalt etc.
Wäre Interessant zumindest die Tagesordnungspunkte zu erfahren.
Man ließt hier in den Medien ja nicht soviel darüber.
Schwerer Rückschlag für Muammar al-Gaddafi: Libyens Außenminister Mussa Kussa hat sich nach London abgesetzt und ist von seinem Amt zurückgetreten. In Großbritannien will er um politisches Asyl bitten.

Alle Vermittlungsversuche scheinen gescheitert, die Lage im Jemen eskaliert: In der Hauptstadt Sanaa liefern sich Stammeskrieger und Teile der Armee heftige Gefechte, es gab bereits Dutzende Tote. Präsident Salih riskiert den Bürgerkrieg, um an der Macht zu bleiben.

Das Assad-Regime in Syrien geht immer brutaler gegen die Opposition vor - doch niemand scheint die Gewalt stoppen zu können. Der Westen scheut eine Intervention wie in Libyen, im Uno-Sicherheitsrat blockieren Russland und China eine Protest-Resolution.

Nato ist auch gerade pleite, was sollen wir machen ?
In Syrien hat das Militär seine Aktionen in zahlreichen Orten fortgesetzt. Immer mehr Menschen ergreifen die Flucht - ein Menscherechtsbericht klagt Hinrichtungen und Folter im Land an. In Damaskus kam es zu einer spektakulären Propaganda-Aktion

Der Druck aus dem Volk wurde immer größer, nun gab Mohammed VI. Details zu seiner Verfassungsreform bekannt: Der König will einen Teil seiner Macht abgeben und der Regierung mehr Rechte einräumen. Wichtige Funktionen will der Monarch allerdings behalten - auch den Oberbefehl über die Armee.

Syriens Präsident Assad wittert eine kleine Gruppe vom Ausland gesteuerter "Saboteure" hinter den Unruhen in seinem Land. In einer Rede an die Nation sprach er zugleich von "berechtigten Forderungen" vieler Demonstranten - und kündigte Minireformen an. Unabhängig von der Ansprache verstärken die EU-Länder den Druck auf Syrien.

Die Internationale Energieagentur (IEA) wird den Märkten zusätzlich 60 Millionen Barrel (je 159 Liter) an Rohöl liefern. Die 28 IEA-Mitgliedsstaaten wollen damit im Juli die schrumpfenden Lieferungen aus Libyen kompensieren. Wegen des Bürgerkriegs sind nach Einschätzung der IEA die Ausfälle stärker als bisher angenommen. Der im Sommer übliche Anstieg der Nachfrage in den Ölraffinerien könnte außerdem zu Engpässen führen. Dadurch könnte die zerbrechliche Erholung der Weltwirtschaft gefährdet werden.
Es ist erst das dritte Mal in der Geschichte der IEA, dass die Mitgliedsländer ihre Ölvorräte geschlossen anzapfen. Das Ziel sei, so IEA-Chef Nobuo Tanaka, dass die Weltwirtschaft gestützt werde.
Der Ölpreis brach heute um mehr als fünf Prozent ein. Die von der IEA beschlossene Freigabe der Ölreserven verstärkte den einen ohnehin schon hohen Verkaufsdruck.

Dieser man ist einer größten Helden des lybischen Bürgerkriegs.
Hab einige videos gesehen als er noch lebte. This man is epic!
Muhammad Halbous
He is not your ordinary man or hero, he is the lion of all lions. Known previously as a truck driver, Halbous led the greatest battles around Misrata. He was known to bring victory to any battle he participated in. The number of tanks Halbous has destroyed is said to be greater than the TOTAL number of tanks destroyed by NATO.
His peers only speak of his strength and bravery. He never missed an opportunity to participate in battle until the day he was martyred. However, his battalion carried on his legacy and continued his fight for freedom. His battalion had a great part in freeing Misrata from Libya’s greatest enemy, Gaddafi.

On May 2, 2011, city of Zintan said goodbye to one of its greatest heroes, martyr “Muhammad al-Madani Alqoerh” in a funeral procession that was accompanied by shots of grief & joy. Al-Madani was killed by a fatal shot when offering Gaddafi forces safety in return for surrender.
He was pronounced dead on Sunday, 01.05.2011 during a battle in eastern Zintan.
The commander was used to being present at all the battles which he led and fought. He always began his battles with offers of safety in order for the enemy to surrender. Such are the Islamic etiquettes of war that Al-Madani was keen in abiding by.
This hero led several battles that took place in Zintan. He also led battles of Majabrah, Tagmah, Zawiyat Albaqul, Al-Kashaf, and the battle to free Wazin borders.
During the Battle of East Zintan on Sunday, he went up to Gaddafi forces and asked them to surrender in return for their safety, but they betrayed him and one of the cowards fired a bullet at him from close by. This is a man who offered them with all sincerity, honestly and in good faith what he sees as a religious duty, but instead was met with cold blood.
These are virtues & values ​​of the great heroes of our revolution.
den kennt vielleicht der ein oder andere... tauchte häufiger in den Medien auf...

ROGEBAN, Libya — Having consolidated control over almost all of Libya’s western mountains, rebel leaders here say they are now pursuing a two-pronged strategy to bring down the government of Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi: starving it of resources while covertly arming a growing guerrilla force within Tripoli itself.
Though the rebels consolidated their hold on most of the Nafusa mountains only about two weeks ago, officials from the opposition stronghold of Benghazi and the operatives from the underground network in Tripoli were all here on Friday night discussing strategies already under way. The mountain rebels showed a reporter an oil pipeline they had recently cut off to Colonel Qaddafi’s last working refinery, in Zawiya.
Now rebels have their sights on Gharyan, a city of about 85,000 that is the last Nafusa mountain town under Colonel Qaddafi’s control. It is widely known as a hotbed of opposition to Colonel Qaddafi and rose up swiftly at the start of the uprising, and if the rebels can take it within the next three weeks, as they hope to do, they will block a crucial supply route from Algeria and the south.
Meanwhile, the rebels say, they have been appealing with increasing success to the Tunisian government to choke off the supply of fuel coming through the Qaddafi-controlled coastal border crossing at Ras Jedir. “It is very painful for the people of Tripoli but unfortunately we need to do that,” said Anwar Fekini, a French-Libyan lawyer and rebel organizer who recently visited Tunis to help press the case, following a visit for the same purpose by the leader of the rebel’s National Transitional Council, Mustafa el-Jalil.
In an interview, a leader of the rebel underground visiting here in the mountains said that the rebels had been smuggling in a growing number of guns as well as C4 plastic explosives, while borrowing a tactic from their mountain allies by making their own crude (and often unsafe) handguns.
In addition to nightly attacks on Qaddafi checkpoints around the capital, he said, the rebels have been plotting more ambitious actions, including an aborted plan to assault the Rixos Hotel in the hope of capturing Colonel Qaddafi’s influential son, Saif al-Islam Qaddafi, who keeps a suite there. That plan was called off in part because of the risk it posed to foreign journalists, who are housed in the hotel.
Already, the rebels say, they are in contact with apolitical or disaffected officials in the Tripoli police force, the Interior Ministry and other government departments to make plans to secure the city in the days after a potential ouster of Colonel Qaddafi. “In every ministry of the government we have people who will be going to their offices in the days after Qaddafi falls, so the government will not collapse,” Mr. Fekini said.
Many of the intellectuals and professionals involved in leading the revolt, he said, were worried about the possibility of mobs seeking revenge on anyone implicated in the Qaddafi government — a prospect that he acknowledged may be helping to hold the Libyan leader’s loyalists together. “We don’t want revenge, but it is the problem of popular justice,” he said.
It is unclear what resources Colonel Qaddafi still commands. He is believed to have started the conflict with billions of dollars in foreign currency stashed away. But the rebels say they are counting on his inability to replenish his coffers because of international sanctions and asset freezes, and in interviews last week Tripoli residents said the strains on his resources were already beginning to show.
Gas lines stretch for miles and drivers wait as long as two weeks to fill their tanks. (Bicycles, previously rare in hot Tripoli summers, are now everywhere). Food prices have soared, with the prices of staples like a can of sardines increasing as much as tenfold, some residents said. To preserve cash, residents said, his government has recently restricted the amount any individual can withdraw from the bank — including cashing a paycheck — to the equivalent of about $800 a month.
At the moment, several Tripoli residents said, the shortages, like the fear of revenge, may also be strengthening Colonel Qaddafi’s hold on the city, in this case by giving him scarce commodities to dole out to loyalists. One Tripoli religious leader said last week that conversations with his congregation have convinced him that virtually every car with enough gas to drive on the streets belongs to a Qaddafi informant or member of the secret police.
