"Let me correct what you just have said in here... Sirt is not been destroyed, it is been erased human wise and construction wise. There is no Sirt any more. I am trying so hard to explain to people what has happen there, no matter how much i speak or write, i can never give % 5 from what really has happened in real life. I lived it there day by day. I wish that I have died and not lived with all sort of bad pictures and thoughts in my mind."

Reflections of a survivor from Sirte.
Name is not published for security reasons and the text is completely unedited.
"I have lost faith in life after what has been done to the people of Sirt who were killed in masses with no mercy. I was in Sirt for 58 days, no food, no life, shooting from every corner, couldn't count the number of the dead people and couldn't help to put them into their graves. Bullets were falling on us like the drops of heavy rain from every direction. This not to forget the NATO missiles and explosions that never stopped, which killed and destroyed whoever and whatever came in its way.
