Ah yeah, we got some good shit going on Youtube.
Rebels before they attacked Tripoli. Bloody hell there's a lot of them. Also a lot of FAL's if my eyes still work. (I can only see the barrels so I'm probably wrong.)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fK0yT9r5gQ8&feature=featured

Aljazeera just confirmed Mohhamad Gaddafi was being "detained in his house" after speaking with him on the phone. His house is surrounded by rebels..

>0229:Libya's state TV broadcasts footage from Bab al-Aziziyah, Col Gaddafi's Tripoli headquarters. It is shown without any explanation or graphics, but placards visible in the footage claim it was filmed on Monday morning. A crowd of people are seen singing and dancing in the square, with many of them carrying Col Gaddafi pictures.

>>9569495
What, this better not be true. He better be dragged out to the Central Square, kicking and screaming if necessary, then the trial will begin.

>>9569550
It's an old fake.

I want him to be torn by the crowd, or hanged, or raped and then hanged.

>>9569408
when can we has American revolution?

This idiot is reminded of the Hunger Game Trilogy... Which is a pretty poor reference but still, a change in regime will only end up satisfying someone Else's thirst for power.

>>9569558
Or vice versa?

So gaddafi dies....
then what?
who takes over?

The government forces in East and South have been cut off from Tripoli for a while, is there a chance for a Japanese style hold out?

A rebel is talking on aljazeera on the resistance they encountered:

>some mercenaries in the capital
>some soldiers here and there

>"the situation has been taken care of"

BADASS

>>9569604
People believe the NTC, but it's speculated that all the rebels will fracture, and it will be a power grab.

Not everyone wants the same thing.

This Alex Crawford bitch deserves to retire all expenses paid after this, fair play to her for risking her life.

>>9569596
True, but any nut job who does take over (assuming they don't turn to *snickers* democracy) will be just as abusive. Just another day in the wasteland.

>>9569604
THE NATIONAL TRANSITIONAL COUNCIL, YOU KNOW THE GOVERNMENT THAT'S BEEN RECOGNISED BY A TON OF NATIONS AND IS IN POWER IN THE EAST?

>>9569602
Why not? I would watch it.

>>9569604
There has been a ruling coucil in the second largest city for 6 months now. They will take care of things in the immediate future.

>>9569607
They have nothing to fight for.

>>9569620
this. Many ex-CIA speculate it will come down to another US backed dictator or the Taliban.

>>9569607
Japanese style hold out
how?

>>9569620
Hopefully they bring back the monarchy so they can have a figurehead to keep everybody united.

Al Jazeera Sources:

>Libyan Revolutionaries have taken control of the State TV & Radio building in Tripoli

Via twitter:

ChangeInLibya tweets: “IMPORTANT: Many sources say that Libyan State TV does NOT broadcast from a fixed position or from #Tripoli anymore. We’ll wait and see.”

So is going to bed?

>>9569639
Constitutional monarchies are pretty boss.

What happened to the old king/queen/prince?

>>9569633

They have nothing less to fight for yes but if the rebels told the government soldiers/mercenaries that Gaddafi was dead and Tripoli was taken they may just not believe them

>>9569559
Never.

>rebels almost losing
>someone kills their commander in chief
>suddenly they are on the offensive and win

must have been a shitty commander

>>9569651
*so who is going to bed?

Yea ill be waiting for gaddafi when he goes to sleep bwahahaha

>>9569664
They where rumors and he was passing information to graffiti since the start, hell that man served by his side for 30+years and was the commander of the special forces.

and shortly before he´s assassination he was being interrogated by NTC high command.

Looks like it's game over for tonight.

9 min 14 sec ago - Libya

Mohammed Dangor, South Africa's ambassador to Libya, told Al Jazeera he has no knowledge of any of his country’s planes in Tripoli.

"I have no knowledge of any South African planes in Tripoli ... but Nato should know, since they control the airport and no plane can land without their permission," he said.

Dangor confirmed that most of South Africa's diplomatic mission had already left Tripoli on Saturday, with some officials still in Djerba in Tunisia and others in Tripoli.

He denied allegations that he left on a South African defence aircraft, saying that he left to Djerba on a World Food Program jet before making his way to Tunis, Dubai and finally Johannesburg.

South Africa is denying they have planes in Tripoli

Heard they have lost contact with the Rixos Hotel...
Hopefully they're all out in the streets.

>yfw gaddafi launches a chemo/nucler strike and wipes out tripoli

>>9569607
Don't forget Sirte... it's his hometown, the rebels aren't going to go easy on them and those people know it.

>>9569741
At this stage, that's just going to piss people off.

Al jazz:

Rebels say the have captured the whole of Tripoli expect the Führerbunker which will be assaulted soon.

Mfw when this is the end while I was rooting for Gaddafi

BRRRRRRRRZZZZZZZJJJJJJJTTTTTTTT

This is the goddamn theme song, motherfuckers.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CIGHCoVzqtk

hopefully Gaddafi hasn't been playing too much cod4

http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2011/06/diy-weapons-of-the-libyan-rebels/100086/

"A Libyan rebel fighter shows a weapon with a grenade launcher attachment which he said was taken from forces loyal to Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi at Misrata's western front line, some 25 km (16 miles) from the city center, on June 7, 2011."

I wonder how the Libyans got a hold of some F2000's, didn't think they were that widely available.

>>9569869
Also from the same article, the guy in the hat knows how to fight and stay comfortable.

>>9569869

probably his private militia

>>9569869
When they butted heads with the 32nd Brigade (Kamis Gaddafi's elite troops) outside of Zawiya in the early stages of the rebellion. I could see a few surviving rebels fading away into the desert carrying those.

>>9569869
Holy fuck this has been answered so many times.
They were bought in small amounts for use by Qaddafi's elites, and that was a rare and lucky find.

you know I'll be honest. I would like to own one of these Libyan Uprising FALs. would make for a nice piece of modern history (even if it's just a normal FAL).

>>9569898

Its Gadaffi you fucktard.

>>9569885
Such a fucking boss look at that

I want to bring an office chair, a towel, and a bottle of water to an uprising. Dude is prepared.

...now I'm wondering if the recoil on that thing would be enough to push you around in the chair.

>>9569869

Why can't I hold all these munitions?

>>9569885

god damn I can go to Staples and my local gunstore and make an AA gun apparently

>>9569886
>>9569896
>>9569898
Fair enough, just wasn't expecting to see something like that even in Gadaffi's arsenal.

>>9569869
you will never make weapons out of scavenged parts from tanks and planes

>>9569919
The best bit is he's shooting at a plane overhead, like a boss.

>>9569921
beat me to it

Reinforcements which never arrived on time?

>>9570014

>>9570039
whats happening i need good source of news bbc is shit

Some people were saying Ghaddafi left the country via plane, is that the case or is he chilling in a furherbunker with his harem of ultra guards?

>>9569919
you can thank /tg/

>>9570052

I fuckin' lol'd.

>>9570051
I hope so. The Nato assault on his country was an illegal oil war.

>>9569994
I want to take a picture of my tortoise wearing my stahlhelm, but I think it's too heavy for him to lift up...

>>9570079
I don't. Is the US getting into some new shit?

>>9570091

How the fuck can you not know about the revolution in Libya?

>>9570014
When did it get hard to enlist? Last I checked they would take just about anybody. That was like 2 years ago though.

>>9570071
>Oil war
>Not supporting the Arab Spring movement
>MFW you probably don't even know what the Arab Spring is

>>9570098
Bro, I don't even know where Libya is.

Toyota, driving the revolution!

Seriously, Toyota is missing out on capitalizing this.

anyone else just see the awesome face in chile?

>>9570119
Basically the people of Libya started up an uprising several months ago to overthrow their dictator, Muammar "Graffiti" Khadaffi/Ghaddafi/Ghaddfi/Daffi Duck who's the self-proclaimed "King of Africa" and an international douchebag. He's behind some terrorist attacks on Western countries and shit, oppressed his people like a bastard. Now it's come to a front of armed conflict, and the rebels have pretty much pushed into Libya's capital, Tripoli and shit has been moving along for the rebels. They've got 2 of Graffiti's sons, but they're still looking for G-Mua himself.

>>9570144
Wow, that was a solid summary of events.

Thanks, /k/.

>>9570136
>>9570110
>>9569885
More battlefield ingenuity plox.

>>9570136
I've actually seen picture of trucks in Libya like this, but it said MITSUBISHI, not TOYOTA.

>>9570119

You put your countries education system to shame.

>>9570119
A lot of the rebels and uprisers seem to be educated in the West and are very articulate I think they understand once this phase of the rebellion passes, they've got a whole lot of work to do to stabilize after. the Transitional National Council (TNC) can be pretty much considered Western friendly, especially of the EU.

>>9570136

are those hyrdra pods on top of a toyota? what the fuck

>>9570181
hell yeah foo that's how Libyans roll

>>9570169

Russian S5 and S8 rockets, pointless given you can't aim the damn things but cool nonetheless.

so it seems like B. Obama is scheduled to issue a statement later on tonight or in the morning.

I don't wanna sleep. wanna know what happens in the morning for this place. bless you technology for being able to cover something like the Libyan Uprising with such depth and detail.

bumping with Libyan rebels

I wonder where Laffy Taffy is.

>>9570315
I think that and Graffiti are the greatest nicknames for Muammar so far. Chortling heartily.
