Libyan citizens, men, women and children came out into the streets to celebrate the first anniversary of their freedom from oppression

Despite the negative reporting by Western media on the situation in Libya and this media’s claim of lack of security in the country, over seven million flags have been raised over the vast territory and in all the country's cities and towns to mark the first anniversary of February 17 uprising against the most brutal dictator who ever ruled the country for 42 years.

In this country of 5.5 million people, hundreds of thousands of people including men, women, old and young, and children, rushed to the streets of each and every city to celebrate the newly found freedom with real emotions and a strong belief that their beloved country has at last been liberated.

They all carried more than one flag to express their joy and pay homage to the many martyrs who sacrificed their lives in order to get rid of a the most despicable ruler, Gaddafi.

Never before have Libyans adored or held high a flag as they have done during the past few days.
