Libyan network hijacked for rebel cause A Libyan mobile network has been hijacked by the rebels, who had been reduced to communicating by semaphore, but can now get interrupted by an incoming call like the rest of us. The network, dubbed "Free Libyana", consists of infrastructure bussed in from the UAE and jacked into the existing cellular infrastructure. Free …
Maybe Motorola/the Libyana network should run commercials with long-dead and now digitally rendered Alec Guiness flogging mobile phones/service from a sandspeeder using the tagline "This is the Droid you are looking for!!!" :)
Sorry about prostituting your childhood memories, but there is money in it so it had to be done....
The Reg needs to add an "in it for the money!" icon, please.
Speaking of "in it for the money", here's Paris!!
...so, let me get this straight, these ones are 'Rebels' and not 'Terrorists'...and the reason being that, until recently anyway, Mr Gaddafi was an ally of the 'Axis of 'Good''™...you know, when he was being all repentant and allowing the exploitation of Libyan resources and people by Western Interests...
...riiiiight, and before that he was 'Bad'...for the years of wanting a better personal deal/resisting exploitation...
...no mention if the 'Rebels'/'Terrorists' are 'Good' or not...but being supported by Western Interests the message is they must be 'Good'...and Gaddafi is 'Bad' so 'Good' + 'Bad' = 'Double Good Good'...obviously...
Of course, the media seems strangely quiet on any attrocities being committed by the 'Good' side...they must be the most saintly 'Rebels'/'Terrorists' ever.
On the news I just heard a reporter pretty much saying something like Gaddafi killed the children...himself, barehanded, with a roadside bomb...why oh why won't someone, anyone <who isn't on the Sex Offender Register> think of the children...
ffs this world is a crock of shit, misinformation and corruption and it makes me sick to the core
