Ziu was in many ways an ordinary man. A middle aged diabetic. A mid-level civil servant who had spent half a lifetime under Qaddafi, raising a family, going fishing with his friends. He was no extremist, yet on a quiet Sunday in February 2011, he took the family car, packed it with gas canisters and crashed it into the gates of the Katiba Military Headquarters - the key to Qaddafi's stranglehold on Benghazi and the South. Ziu gave up his life to blow open the compound gates, and the people of Libya did the rest, first in Benghazi, and in time, throughout the country. Written by Anonymous See less
