It 'started from Cairo after the bombing began in Ajdabiyah, a city 160 km from Benghazi. "We started in 14 out of private minibus headed to the Egyptian border today, in all probability, is closed.
Some of us, including women and children, remained in Egypt, Italy and others came in, headed to Beirut. The militia did not control the border and the Egyptians have helped the refugees by facilitating the paperwork Libyan passports. There were many volunteers to help out. " Omar was in Libya since the beginning of the revolution, but two days ago he decided to leave before the situation degenerated even in Benghazi, as happened in the last hour.
Explain that the information of the Western media has been lacking, which did not provide a comprehensive coverage of what happened in Tripoli. "Journalists have made extensive use of stories branch out from Jana, the government agency. Sure, it was also given a voice to complaints and the massacre of civilians, but the most reliable sources were the forces of opposition.
I disagree with those who call them rebels or insurgents. They are only opponents of the regime. " Gaddafi, Omar calls "a mad visionary, a megalomaniac who wants to shed blood to make history," he subjected his people to violence and severe repression. "From east to west of the country there have been systematic house to house raids.
The first was in Tripoli after February 17, the day of demonstration against the government official in Benghazi. Cyrenaica has always been against the dictatorship, and that is the least developed region, with no infrastructure. They took so many young people, especially political activists.
Many have disappeared, their bodies hidden, and who has returned home he had to sign declarations of loyalty to the regime. " Gaddafi, who has called his countrymen "mice, rats, Stan", has made extensive use of mercenaries mainly from Niger, Chad, Algeria, Mauriotania, Gabon and Ghana also integrated into the army and trained to shoot at eye level .
"They were ready to intervene in a decade," says Omar. "Qaddafi had established relations with the political and commercial sub-Saharan Africa which has hired thousands of men for his safety. And beyond them, at this time attacked Benghazi: a friend told me that his house was hit, that the dead in the hospital are over 50 and injured hundreds.
This morning they bombed the Red Cross and the stadium, mobile communications are possible only via satellite or internet connection via satellite dish. To the extent they have also cut water and light for days. Many civilians have homes with basements that use as shelters during the bombing.
" In recent weeks the media to groups spoke in support of Gaddafi who were willing to defend it with arms. "It 's all fake, no one wants to drive over leadership of the country. They are the men of his equipment than you saw in the papers dressed in civilian clothes, orphans indoctrinated by the regime.
" Omar is convinced that international action these are the last hours for the leader who, however, is not willing to surrender. The Libyan people, however, disappointed by the belated Western intervention, which should have already attacked last week, and the procrastination of Berlusconi.
"There is no hatred of the Italians, in fact. But we would have preferred more sharp words since dall'indizio instead declared intention not to interfere, which has turned into indifference. I hope you will take him alive, to be processed. Too easy if he dies. " Omar goes the thanks of the people of North African Tunisia and Egypt, early to rise: "If Ben Ali and Mubarak were still in power - claims Omar - Libya would not have happened.
All that Gaddafi wanted to go away and yet, in the absence of an alternative, we hoped that his son Saif al-Islam did we transition into democracy. But it turned out worse than the father had known better before. "
