- tptacek 16y agoLibyan law is whatever the ruling party says it is this instant.
- cottsak 16y agoAs with many Islam/Muslim nations (not racism. a fact. i lived there).
- swombat 16y agoAnd the point is, that doesn't qualify as "rule of law". "Rule of law" means, very specifically, that everyone is equal before the law. This is only possible when the law is somewhat fixed, explicit, and intelligible to the people affected. What they have there is more like Roman law - i.e. everyone is subject to the law unless the leader decides otherwise. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_law http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rule_of_law
