The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

The people of Libya have a right to peacefully protest but the defacing of the parliament building and destructive rioting is unnacceptable. Libyan leaders have been working with the UN to bring about change, and violence will not help this process.

Establishment-critical narrative

The people of Libya are tired of feuding factions, the crumbling quality of life, and the UN who indulged the political class behind Lybia's instability. The possibility of elections seems slim, forcing Lybians to take action. Enough is enough; it's time for change.
