For the past few months, the situation in Libya has varied from dire to horrifying; the rebels are fighting to maintain ground and even push whenever they get some help, but the situation they are in is not a good one. Scrambling to arm themselves against organized and trained military and mercenaries, the rebels have started to make use of whatever they can. Here are just a few pictures capturing these attempts:
