Libya's transitional leader declared his country's liberation Sunday 23 Nov. 2011

Boys stand atop horses at a celebration of Libya's liberation in Freedom Square in Misrata, Sunday, Oct. 23, 2011. Libya's transitional leader declared his country's liberation Sunday after an 8-month civil war and set out plans for the future with an Islamist tone. The announcement was clouded, however, by international pressure to explain how ousted dictator Moammar Gadhafi had been captured alive days earlier, then ended up dead from a gunshot to his head shortly afterward.
