Libya, a country ravaged by war and caught between Gaddaffi's army and volunteer fighters needs international aid. Troops loyal to Gaddafi won't leave him and would fight to the end and are better equipped then voluntary fighters. And caught between them is the general public which is helpless and does not know what to do. Though France and US have succeded in carrying out aerial blocakade in Libyan air space, but that alone is not enough if Gaddafi's troops are to be defeated and democracy be brought back to the war torn country.

Since India does not have any river linkage system, people suffer with natural calamities like floods and drought resulting in destruction of crops. It is due to this that Indian farmers are completely dependent on monsoon showers. But with depletion of forests and global warming, the scientist community across the world have observed a change in the timmings of monsoon showers across the world. India is one of the most affected countries that has suffered due to change in timmings of monsoon. Last year, i.e. in 2009, monsoons ditched the farmers resulting in shortage of production targets of wheat, pulses, vegetables and fruits.
