We pray the President keeps his word -- for the sake of Libyans, Cubans, Iranians and all other oppressed people throughout the world.

"The United States also strongly supports the universal rights of the Libyan people. That includes the rights of peaceful assembly, free speech, and the ability of the Libyan people to determine their own destiny. These are human rights. They are not negotiable. They must be respected in every country. And they cannot be denied through violence or suppression."

-- U.S. President Barack Obama, Remarks on Libya, The White House, 2/23/11
