A comment from another acquaintance of mine who is Libyan, and also lives in Tripoli:
"My deepest condolences to the family of Chris Stevens and the American people. This was an attack on the American embassy and the Libyan people on equal levels. This isnt the teachings of Islam nor the Libyan people. Lets not deviate and say this the result of the revolution.... lets take this and build on it. I want to see a crack down from the government and i want Saudi Arabia to focus less on our restructuring. I don't want Libyans to say there ashamed because those werent Libyans. I want to see a campaign from the government and a civilized reaction to condemn these actions from the Libyans. We need to see this done now, not tomorrow or the day after. Chris Stevens was a humble man who roamed the streets of Libya like any citizen , ate bazeen with his hands and loved the country and culture, lets show those bastards what Libyans are really like. Im open to any ideas and willing to join in any initiative."
Fahd Ben Halim,Tripoli, 12/08/12.
Not the most eloquent, but then English is his second language. But he doesn't seem to think we shouldn't necessarily holding this against Libya, but against seriously misguided extremists who are not in the majority. Lets hope the authorities grab this by the scruff of the neck.
