16. So what? Libya has always been conservative. Jalil "also paid tribute" to NATO's role.

He also paid tribute to the Gulf Cooperation Council, a six-nation alliance led by Saudi Arabia, The Arab League and the European Union. NATO, which aided the anti-Gadhafi fighters with airstrikes, performed its task with "efficiency and professionalism."

Let Libya choose their own path to freedom. Any fearmongering about Libya choosing to live under Sharia law is a disservice to their culture. It doesn't mean they're all going to take up arms and join Al-Qaeda, if that's what you're getting at. In fact, the Transitional Council scoffs at such nonsense. They are wealthy and there are no poor dissaffected youth there. Quite the opposite.
