The Libyan Freedom and Democracy Campaign was a secular political group during the Libyan Civil War. It established the Democratic Party (Libya) in July 2011.[1][self-published source?][2]
Political position
- Support for the National Transitional Council as a useful expedient to help the transition to Democracy, but noting that it does not have legal legitimacy.[3]
- The transition to democracy in Libya to be overseen by a United Nations commission similar to the Adriaan Pelt commission at the end of World War II which oversaw the independence of Libya[4]
- Deployment of UN peacekeeping forces
- The establishment of a commission similar to the Truth and reconciliation commission in South Africa
- The Separation of Church and State, with Freedom of conscience as the best way to defeat radical Islam and Al Qaida[5]
The campaign worked with many think tanks such as the club of Madrid, the Gorbachev Foundation and The Westminster Foundation for Democracy, to achieve its aims.[1]
