20:43Now Playingwww.DemocracyNow.org - U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is on a surprise visit to the Libyan capital of Tripoli today. She is expected to hold talks with the top officials from Libya's National Transitional Council (NTC). Clinton's visit comes a day after NATO-backed fighters loyal to the NTC claim they have captured most of Bani Walid, one of Col. Muammar Gaddafi's last remaining strongholds. Eight months into the uprising, Libya is peering into an uncertain future. After 42 years under Gaddafi's rule, Libyans long repressed under his regime are publicly speaking out. However, even Gaddafi's most consistent critics say the road ahead is paved with serious challenges. In this exclusive video report from inside Libya, Democracy Now! correspondent Anjali Kamat and Jacquie Soohen of Big Noise Films speak with former Libyan exiles, Libyan human rights activists, NTC chair Mustafa Abdel Jalil, prisoners held by the rebel forces, and others.
