"The UN Security Council has voted unanimously to impose sanctions on Muammar Gaddafi's Libyan regime for its attempts to put down an uprising.
They backed an arms embargo and asset freeze while referring Col Gaddafi to the International Criminal Court for alleged crimes against humanity.
US President Barack Obama has said the Libyan leader should step down and leave the country immediately.
Discussions on forming a transitional government are reportedly underway".
What kind of "transitional government" do you think this will be, and what will effect will it have on civil liberties?
Do you think this will set a pattern for other nations in the Middle East that are in the midst of revolution?
