Instead of my usual rant, i'm just gonna post pics. Almost all of them were taken from friend's posts on facebook, so sorry some are bad quality.
Also, on that election morning i joined my cousin on a road-trip to Tripoli from Benghazi, you can see the pics here. NOTE: I mostly took pictures of damages and left over war relics for some odd reason, but this is by FAR NOT THE NORM in Libya.

Not one single bullet was heard during the election day. Thanks to the youth who kept present and ensured the safety of the people.
Voting taking place, as with registration, in schools. again to spread awareness to the younger generation.

This is a libyan delicacy that is only made during our religious holidays. Lots of people in Benghazi made it yesterday for this special occasion.

Great pics! I think that when you're traveling a desolate road, your eyes are drawn to the smashed things like tanks and the occasional structure. Great to see all the purple fingers!!!
Nice pictures is there any plan to recover any of the tanks that were disabled during the fighting? And those tanks that had their barrels up and look functional were those near a military base?
they should have made voting boxes out of these: it would have been much suited.
The delicacy is called "Aseeda", which is a flower-based dough surrounded by melted butter and honey on top. you dip the dough in the honey and eat. its the epiphany of glutenous heart-clogging finger food...

Probably that's the reason we only make it like 2-3 times a year.

great pictures brother.
Haha, box!hug? I guess boxes need love, too.
Mmm, what's that delicacy? Is it sweet?
