Fancy That

Well, this is some good news in the Arab Spring:

A coalition led by a Western-educated political scientist appeared on Sunday to be beating its Islamist rivals in Libya’s first election after Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi, breaking an Islamist wave that swept across neighboring Egypt, Tunisia and Morocco in the aftermath of the Arab Spring uprisings.

Let's not walk away from the place. Help them establish rule of law and work for clean elections to keep this going.

I still wonder if the west and east can come to terms for a unified state (and then tell the south to take what is given).
