TRIPOLI, Libya (AP/THE BLAZE) — A distraught Libyan woman stormed into a Tripoli hotel Saturday to tell foreign reporters that government troops raped her, setting off a brawl when hotel staff and government minders tried to detained her.
As journalists tried to speak to her, things got out of control and the police minders waded in, trying to physically shut her up and stop her talking.
Hers is not the voice they want heard in this country. In the commotion a gun was pointed towards the Sky News team in an attempt to stop them filming.
A team from another news organisation had their camera smashed in front of them.
After about 15 minutes the woman was dragged outside the hotel and put into a waiting car.

terrible things go on in the world, and it's sickening to even think about

but I'm always skeptical of any MSM news. There have been many accounts of where "stories" were made up in order to rally support for war.

i think that before the revolution the woman wouldn't have reported it like this. It was the way in that part of the world and it won't be changing soon.

Made up or not she's in a lot of trouble. I hope the publicity can save her and she is seen gain.

I saw this on TV and it was sickening. I thought, and I may be wrong, that her husband is the one that has been abusing and raping her and she was trying to get away.
It was disgusting to see him beating her and the other women trying to cover her back up.

And people of that faith wonder why so many have no respect for it.

Now come on lets all just get behind the Gov't/UN/NWO in their new war and do NOT think for yourself, do NOT remember documented facts about how the U.S. rapes, tortures, murders innocents in Iraq/Afganistan besides them sheep herders, old men, women and children should know better than to live in a war zone. Lets all just unite and obey and be patriotic and cheer on the globalist machine.........otherwise the DHS/Ameristapo will have to be informed and you will need to be sent to a FEMA re-education center.
