Dear Ian,
so nice to hear from you,
My children are here with me. My son and his family and my daughter recently emigrated to New Zealand
with her family. My husband (?) has been helping to look after the wounded. He is safe.
It is a difficult time, people are already celebrating in Benghazi, the news is that Muamr has left for Brazil or Venezuela.
His son Saif is not credible. We are not there yet. I am worried and almost ecstatic at the same time, very confusing. The Libyan people have suffered so much and proved themselves to be as beautiful and brave as the Tunisians and Egyptian so rMisrians. We are all so proud. It has been so so long.
Hope you and your family are well.
best Wishes,
I hope my husband will be able to meet you one day and thank you in person for your tremendous efforts. I will always be grateful and admiring of your campaigning energy.

We all pray for Egypt and their people
10th February
The news that Mubarak still sits in his ivory tower refusing to leave is typical of the arrogant position that dictators take. These dictators feel they have a divine right to rule and look where that got us in our regal history.
I have visited Egypt on a number of occasions on holiday and found them in the main a vibrant very youthful based set of communities , extremely friendly and struggling to make ends meet to keep their families fed , housed and educated.
Here again we in the West are just as guilty in supporting such regimes that are rotten to the core. the human rights abuses continue, the political prisoners of conscience remain behind bars. May democracy win and such tin pot dictators as Mubarak go.
stand in solidarity & defiance with the protestors.
We will stand with them in their demand for an end to the crackdown, for their freedom, their basic human rights and immediate reform.
There will be demonstrations, protests and stunts held in cities around the world, as well as online, so there are plenty of ways in which you can get involved.
London
Where? Trafalgar Square,
When? Saturday 12 February, 12noon – 2pm
Speakers: Salil Shetty of Amnesty International plus Trade Unions, and other partner organisations, as well as youth activists from the Middle East and North Africa region.
Wear: Black, white or red, the colours of the Egyptian flag
Time for us fellow human beings to stand together.
