Isi artikel The climax of Libya's six-month-old revolt was not only televised via satellite but also text-messaged. Shortly after armed rebels captured the state telecoms company during their entry into the capital, Tripoli, on August 21st they sent a note to millions of mobile-phone users saying "Long live free Libya". Then they added the equivalent of $40 to all accounts and restored the country's Internet connection, which had been cut at the start of the rebellion. Earlier in the day, thousands of fighters had rushed from the west and south into the surprisingly lightly defended city, accompanied by television crews and cheered on by dancing crowds. But the fight is not quite over. Troops loyal to the dictator still resisted fiercely, using heavy weapons inside Tripoli. They appear to be well-organised, even claiming that letting the rebels into the city was a ploy. That seems unlikely. The rebels now control large parts of the capital. The colonel is hemmed in. His rule has undoubtedly ended. Men loyal to him control only a few towns across the sparsely populated country. Aided by NATO, the rebels should be able to rout them or negotiate a surrender.
