Salamé to the Libyans: The hour of truth has arrived, and the choice is yours

The Address | Benghazi – Libya

“My Libyan brothers! The hour of truth has arrived and is yours: Either you go for the minds or the instinct, or you remain prisoners of hatred of the past or build together a bright future for your children,” The UN envoy to Libya, Ghassan Salamé, last night tweeted.

The Lebanese academic said that Libya should be one for the benefit of all. “Either the little things distract you or save your country from its stalemate.”

إخوتي الليبيين! لقد دقت ساعة الحقيقة والخيار لكم: فإما تحتكمون للعقل او للغريزة، وإما تبقون أسرى أحقاد الماضي او تبنون معا مستقبلا زاهرا لأولادكم، وإما تلهيكم الصغائر او تنقذون وطنكم من كبوته، وإما تفرقكم الفئوية او يضمكم الوطن الواحد الوسيع لجميعكم.
