When all the dust and flack settles, Libya will still be some kind of a dictatorship.

Because (for cultural and religious reasons) a Libyan would not know what right was if it bit him in the nose. The only people who understand rights are Westerners and they do not do all that well either.

the internet might just help change that, remember at one time we in the west were the ones with lesser rights compared to the middle east, even in intellectual pursuits.
there is also a strong sense of right in the east, in some ways much better evolved that what we have in the west.

to discount any posibility of change is to forget we are always changing.
