I am not afraid to die, I am afraid to loose the battle

Special note to my new friends in Benghazi, Libya.
we want our human rights we want to be free, dont understand, how can you people can just watch him keep killing us, I am not afraid to die, I am afraid to loose the battle 
From the compelling first vido   link
"Attacking them with anti tanks, you know the types of weapons they attack tanks with, they are killing unarmed civilians, we are peaceful people. To help, we want our freedom, help us by supporting us, put pressure on gaddafi, tell him to leave, tell him to leave, we want him to leavr libya, its enough  we have suffer for over 42 years, for gods sake who can rule for over 42 years, isnt that enough, ask him to stop killing us. I just dont understand, how can you people can just watch him keep killing us. and not putting any pressure on him, thats the minimum we can ask, we just want to live free. I am currently located on top of the north couth in binghazi ;libya on the noth sea, I am located on the roof. the violence is happening everywhere, even in tripoli. They are putting tanks in the street to stop us. I am not sure if they are going to bomb us soon here. If I die, my people will be onine with you tomorrow from another location. I ask you to put this live on another station. We are using two way communication to get with me, today it is really slow becuase of the connecitonw e have. If anything happens to us today, and they send airplanes to kill us, there are more of us. We will be here for you from another location, we want our human rights we want to be free, long live libya, long live free libya, can you tell me if  I am live. I cannot be sure I will be alive in 5 minutes. I am not afraid to die, I am afraid to loose the battle thats why I want the world to see what is going on"  [excuse my typos was trying to type as fast as he was talking in the video] 
 I found this livestream forum on twitter one night and it was a live deed from downtown Benghazi, located on the north coast of Libya, by the sea. This guy was talking and said he "was located in the offices of the roof."  He then exclaimed "the violence was happening everywhere in Libya, and that even Tripli has joined us (the revolution). He wasn't even sure he would be live the next morning. This young man and his friends ran this video stream every day every night, with an associated chat area. It was nice it gave us all a place, like home, like a little community where a group of people from all over the world started to get to know teach other, Everyone was very nice, once we got rid of the spammers, it was nice. Kindred people, someone you would call your friend. I didn't talk alot in the forums, but I read the forum often, hoping to hear something goo. A few very dedicated followers would patiently translate  from Arabic to English, for us  Just wanted to thank you my friends in Benghazi.  You don't know me, I feel like i know you.  I love hanging,out in your chat forum every day, I'll never forget that night, ttank sat outside your window. So nice to watch everyone the  new Free Libyan govt come together,congratz!!  I think everything you are doing is right, I hope you all do what is most safe in the next couple days, and just to make sure you know. There are 1000's if not 10000 of thousands of people out there from alll over the world watching you, worrying for you, and we all wish you to be safe in days and weeks... The first night I saw this broadcast on livestream, was end of Feb
So... what can I say (if you didnt catch this link  you should, very emotional and memorable)
