Hey Nick, I'm glad your experience with the police (and throughout your trip in 🇱🇾) was on a positive side; the fact that they were looking out for you. I have left you a Q under your Instagram photo 👍

I’m curious about how Libya calmed the violence of its civil war, and about any ongoing efforts to improve the economy and safety of the country in regards to non-local travelers 👌🏼

@@VegaFoster It's mainly thanks to corona... The UN ordered a cease-fire between the two fronts because of fear of covid-19 spreading and getting out of hand in libya

Was Gaddafi really bad ? Do Libyan people miss him today?

Do you find what seems to be a slightly more chaotic nature of the rules and regulations in Libya compared to the very heavy handed but at least clear regulations of North korea or even China to be harder to deal with as a traveler?

You Libyans praise white people but treat black people bad . That's why your country is suffering now . The same people you praise destroyed your country good

قواد

Hey man hope you're doing well, can I ask you a question? What do Libian people think about the revolution? Do they think it was organic or was it foreign meddling? What do people think about Kaddafi before the overthrow?

Libya had one of the highest literacy rates and standards of living under Ghadffi. I wish Libyan people peace but they allowed themselves to be used by the US, UK and France. May Ghadaffi rest in peace. Good man destroyed and sodomised by Obama's Libyan agents.

Hello, my name is Moayad from Libya, I am 28 years old. Are you looking for a young man to marry you?

I'm wondering what was the problem with Gaddafi why your people didn't like him.

@@hristinatrajkovskatrajkovs74 It wasn't the people that didn't like him. It was the extremists that fought the coup supported by NATO. Gaddafi wanted a African Union that would protect the Arab world (especially North Africa) from NATO imperialism. He also wanted to establish a gold dinar which would bolster the African economy and consequently tank the US Petrol Dollar and EU economy. He pioneered the largest man made river in the world, to bring fresh water to Africans throughout Libya, Chad and Tunisia. This would make them less reliant on Western aid. He also wanted to work with RU and China to modernize Libyan infrastructure which would render Western corporations useless, considering they cost more than their RU and Chinese counterparts and are a lot less efficient. No wonder NATO led yet another illegal coup in a sovereign nation (Afghanistan, Iraq and the -Arab- NATO Spring of 2011 etc)

@@joebenson528 Is it true that he also expelled Jews and Italians? That's what I've seen from some sources

@@AnOnlineDweller Yes, a punishment for decades of Italian oppression against Libyans, and Tunisians. Anyone that aided the Italian colonizers (Germans, Jews etc) were expelled along with them. Palestinian Zionists (British Proxies) fly under the radar when people talk about imperialism in the region. More people should look into their attempted theft of the Libyan nation by the Zionists in the name of a foreign King, George.

@@AnOnlineDweller never heard of that before, but even if he did, it's not their country. So they had no right to it

Then you’re a fool. If you are white and take a wrong turn, expect to be kidnapped by extremists connected to Islamic state. If you’re black, expect to be kidnapped into slavery. Pick your poison.

I wouldn‘t go to a country where you get detained for using a camera on a public square....

⁠@@CryptocurrencyInsider !! Who told you this? I am not asking anyone to visit Libya, but this is not true about use the camera

Cheers Hassan!

sending love to Morocco from Libya ❤️

100%, thanks for watching!

Every travel youtuber in absolutly every country: "Wow, these people are so nice and friendly and they are laughing so much, although they are so poor." Thats maybe a little bullshit.I respect this work so much, but.... Come on. ;)

Do you know the musician or what the piece is called?

It has to! There are SOOOO many recourses and geographically, it’s right in the middle of everything. There’s a reason why almost every major empire in history has wanted a piece of it. Love from an American Libyan ✌🏽🇺🇸🇱🇾

Love Pakistan from Libya 🇱🇾🇱🇾❤❤🇵🇰🇵🇰

It will NEVER develop to its former glory.. Just like Afganistan, Iraq and all other corrupt countries.. And of course the whole Balkan. They are all doomed.

In shaa'a Allah (God willing). The people need to work for it.

Love from Pakistan or you're in a European city? Just asking

Thank you, Trent, they really did treat me very well. Cheers!

Regardless if you have a good attitude as Nick or not so much as myself used to, you learn quickly when traveling to places like this that the only thing that works is being humble even if/when your rights might get trampled on.

@@IndigoTraveller are you planning to visit Benghazi where warlord Khalifa haftar rules?

@@ArchieReviewsUKDeals - I always thought Libya would split in two; East and West Libya.

@@thetessellater9163 well western politicians did copy that idea from your mind when they hacked god's servers haha

Not only NATO but rebels and pro regime forces

I agree, im from Italy. Unstability in Libya Is a big issue for us too.

Thanks guys I'm from Libya too

@@user-wp4oh3zn5e how is it a big issue? Migrants?

@@LittleHomieLightningtech Of course. Libya was one a great trading partner, and now just a place where millions from all over Africa use as a launching point to Lampedusa island claiming refugee status, getting free access to the mainland and obtaining freebees while Italians themselves have to go without.

From libya..you wellcom

Bro not stable yet ....THANK YOU for saying this. As I have been feeling this in the pit in my stomach so much lately my dad is Libyan but I was born in the US.

Sorry this happened and if you were in the square this is a tactic from the bygone Gaddafi era they probably don't even know why they needed to question you in that particular area other than that's what they've seen their whole life very stupid I'm sorry that happened to you but what you told us in the end about how they want to make sure you're properly looked after this is partially right maybe your guide should have known better but Libya is a country where one person can tell you no problem you're welcome and then the next minute a different group is scowling at you

Thank you, Sam. Much love!

@@IndigoTraveller yes, this trip has been outstanding. Stay safe!

Still stupid. A journalist was murdered in Amsterdam a couple days ago

Hey, if it's good enough for Jesus 🤷

Absolutely

Saying the wrong thing to his camera could be a very long police interview. I think he's getting as much as he can.

What is he missing?

What he face about his camera is happening with Libyan photographers too.. He isn't in Libya

Hello from the UK 👋

@@Iz0pen - perhaps those with negative opinions stay away from being interviewed. Would you speak out against a strictly controlled society like this? It would be like dissing Kim Jong-Un while in North Korea!

I think we all know who was behind this calamity. NATO aircrafts bombed Gaddafi palace in 2011.

Exactly

Americans see authoritarianism and think their country's genocides are justified. Just so some US oil baron can buy the native land, such 'freedom'

exactly... and the introduction to his video using clips of Obama and Clinton as if they did something great is hilarious!

It is NOT about the oil. Either in Libya or Iraq. It's about stopping dedollarization. That is what they are most scared of.

Brazil is beautiful too. You should check out the Falvela's this time of year.

I highly recommend you go to Libya . please disregard the lies you read from western media especially the USA!, UK and France.

I'll never forget about that murder of Yvonne Fletcher

@@turnip5359 what does that have to do with sherlocks comment

@@LittleCobra Yvonne was murdered in front of the Libyan Embassy, by shots coming from the embassy building. So now do you get it ?

@@Odo55 I’ll never forget what the west did to Iraq, Syria and Libya.

How are things going in Lydia at the moment?

@@theredeyther7502 it's spilled Libya not Lybia nor Lydia.

Beautifully put sir

I visited usa and libya. I can say that usa is more dangerous:).

@@romanianhustler3309 And I can say you're a liar.

Thank you for your kind words, Richard. As a Libyan who is young enough not to have the 80s geopolitics in mind, I wish our people, Libyans and Americans, to be unified and fulfilled in their destiny. Our struggle is due to our fight for a republic, that is something, defining, that we have in common. Cheers from Tripoli.

They have everything the west wants. That's they're biggest problem.

I am happy to see this stupid country in ruins, they deserve it because of the “mad dog“ who ruled it for so long. I am from Bulgaria and they held 6 bulgarian nurses as hostages for 10 years in the 90’s and after years of torture in their prisons they were even sentenced to death on false accusations. Fortunately after years of negotiations thanks to France they were released free, but Libya never admitted the true or apologise so they got what they deserved for supporting the “mad dog”s state terrorism

As a Libyan you're totally right and the most important thing we need is unification if we unify one government and one military we will be the best country in Africa

@@user-kp8dl8rb6l lmaoyeah the west is always the wrong doing, the part of the world which values freedom, innovation and everything thats good about humanity lmao

Yep. All throughout the harsh operating conditions of North Africa, Toyotas rule supreme. Still the most durable civilian vehicle on the market, methinks.

@@antonmoric1469 In North Africa and the Middle East Toyota cars are a man's best friend.

@@antonmoric1469 Yes, durability is probably true. But if they were Tesla's, you don't think US stateside blowback would cause them to cease the sales and support of these vehicles to the criminals?

Because they are reliable simple

why all terro***st organizations in the Middle East drive Toyota's made in US? :D

Sorry to hear, I hope you feel better soon. Thanks for watching. Wish you the best!

ive never traveled anywhere so for me, channels like this are the most amazing thing and the closest ill likely get for some time

@@itsv1p3r I have travelled everywhere, all the time. Now I just settle down in my home city, don’t want to move to anywhere. Plant well your own garden first. The happiness comes from the heart.

I never travel anywhere. Busy working for a pittance. Must be nice all you trust fund kids getting cultured.

@@rogerdodger6046 where do you life?

Responding in the way you described is actually a common and very human way to create a connection with someone. Similarities create strong bonds, and this awful trend of people being so far up their own assholes that they feel like the person opposite of them is trying to take anything away from them simply by saying that they experience or do something similar is seriously disturbing. I love when people respond with their similarities to me, it makes me that much more inclined to spend time with them.

@@Jimmertt Of course, in "real" life/ social situations, that goes without saying. But its a real skill in journalism - one I think Nick has really mastered.

there's little exaggeration in his description, talking like he's in Afghanistan or Syria. I'm from Tripoli, and it's pretty safe here. There's no armed gangs، If he was filming in eastern Libya, I'd agree with him, because it's not as safe there as the capital, it's not under government control

also why did the civilians or whomever was near the fate shoot or make a sound of shooting at a sight of a lonely unarmed man?

Thank you, Nadia. I hope you get to return for a visit soon. All the best to you and your family. Thanks for watching.

kill the power breabreaker in your house and wait for 6 hours minimum (depending on how much you missed it) no internet no water no gas and no air-fucking-conditioner. That will give you good flash backs

@@SONNYemc I remember that like if it was yesterday, it's funny that with all that shit I never felt depressed, we had to go through it yes or yes. Now I'm in a place I always dreamed of but with no desire to live, feels like I will never fit in, nor here nor there

@@Nadia-Bilbao I've been out for more than 10 years, i know exactly what you mean, they won't understand tills they walk in our shoes, these materials are important but you have your own self in your country, i miss that feeling of secure and calmed whatever happens like i don't care and everything has a different meaning when you do it. It's not a choice to go back, but i never with it to anyone to get stuck and always treated like an outsider no matter what.

@@Nadia-Bilbao Exactly, it's so hard for people to understand this... I am an immigrant from the Colombian Caribbean to the USA and it's like your soul gets left behind, and once you leave it's not the same if you are able to go back. It's a heartbreaking situation.
