It was the afternoon of Feb. 24, 2011, just days after the city’s residents had expelled troops and officials loyal to Col. Muammar el-Qaddafi, marking the birth of Libya’s uprising.
Thousands of jubilant Libyans thronged outside the Benghazi courthouse on the city’s seaside corniche. A stiff wind lifted a fine mist of ocean spray into the air. Mr. Denton was overwhelmed ...

When the Arab Spring got underway late in 2010, few of us imagined it would spread to Libya with any tangible effect. To those of us of my generation here in Malta, Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi was the bogeyman – he’d always been there lurking not too far from our shores – Libya is less than 350 km to the south of the island, and Gaddafi was a frequent visitor and close friend of the Maltese government in the 70s, my childhood years.
A year later, when I look back on the events ...

It's been just over a month since the capture and death of Libyan dictator Moammar Khadafy, ending his 42-year reign.

Pockets of fighting have erupted among rival tribes and some rebels have refused to give up their cache of weapons. Doctors continue to struggle to treat the wounded and sick, with a few of ...
