Libya's rebels have thanked France for its role in the Western-led military blitz against the Kadhafi regime but said 'outside forces' could now leave the country, in a letter published today.
    I don't think it's a Rafale. Green camo and central pylon lead me to think that it's a 2000D.

    Very very nice picture BTW

    It is not a Libyan ID card. It's a Chadian Embassy Foreign Registry Entry/card.

    IE a Chadian National that has been registered as "Ex-Pat" in Libya at the Chadian Embassy in Libya. Hence the Arabic letters so that local authorities can id the man.

    HE219: You're right. Simply noting that these people might have been "rounded" up from Libyan Illegal Immigration detention centres. It makes the death of this man even more awful.

    I don't even want to know what your problem is, tell it to a mod. I will elaborate tho...She is a beautiful professional, doing a great/purposeful job she has chosen, and hopefully enjoys. I thought of all the freedoms she enjoys/practices as opposed to someone in a "plastic trash bag". That is all, have a nice day. Please stay on topic, I was just admiring a nice picture.

    EDIT: Hopefully this satisfied your curiosity. If you don't have a problem, then I am glad for that. I will say in my opinion, your qestioning 'sounded'/read demanding to me. Especially when you start by wanting 'logic', lol. I am sorry for any misunderstandings. I edited this post as to not funk up the photos and videos thread.

    A man waves a French flag atop a captured tank belonging to forces loyal to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi in Ajdabiyah March 26, 2011. Libyan rebels backed by allied air strikes retook the strategic town of Ajdabiyah on Saturday after an all-night battle that suggests the tide is turning against Gaddafi's forces in the east.



    A rebel walks atop the barrel of an SPA vehicle belonging to forces loyal to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi in Ajdabiyah March 26, 2011.

    A rebel hands an AK-47 rifle to a man as he stands atop a destroyed tank belonging to forces loyal to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi after an air strike by coalition forces in Ajdabiyah March 26, 2011.





    A boy holds a Mannlicher Carcano M38 rifle as his family takes part in celebrations on the western outskirts of the town of Ajdabiyah March 26, 2011.

    A rebel looks on as a man holds a piece of destroyed weaponry after air strikes on armoured vehicles on the western outskirts of the town of Ajdabiyah March 26, 2011.

    How you came to the conclusion I have a problem, just plain curiosity.

    I didn't proof the caption for obvious reasons. Spanx for the correction.
    Mechanic is also misspelled, how come y'all didn't catch that one?!
    (I know why ..)

The petrochemical begins to seep through the cracks, just like water goes up trees, it is the capillary effect. Also, it is a lubricant unto itself. Slowly, it forms a pool like the one in the photo.
