The US state department has warned any American citizens in Libya to leave the country immediately. It said the situation in the country remained unpredictable and unstable. On Tuesday, the US said it was sending a warship carrying around 1,000 marines to the region for any possible evacuation of American officials.

Thanks to the U.S., another stable, prosperous country turned into hell-on-earth.
Fortunately there is no occupation in Libya, unlike Iraq, and the Green Resistance is still organized and capable of striking. The only thing keeping the Libyan people from restoring the Green Revolution and toppling the NATO-backed regime is the continued detention of Saif al-Islam. If somehow news broke that Saif were freed or escaped you would see every technocrat in Tripoli fleeing the country as fast as they could. The closest thing I could imagine it to being like is the panic in Paris c. 1815 on hearing Napoleon had escaped Elba.
