Samir Al-Saadawi
[edit]Samir Al-Saadawi is a prominent journalist & political analyst. He is the international affairs editor of the leading Pan- Arab newspaper “Al Hayat”. With the uprising of “February 17”in Libya, Samir Al-Saadawi emerged as a fierce critic of Moamar Gaddafi, and called in a series of article and TV interviews for an end to dictatorship and the establishment of democracy in Libya. Al-Saadawi was born in Beirut (1959) into a Libyan family in diaspora, his grandfather played a leading role in unifying the territory of Libya and its independence in the first half of the last century. Bashir Al-Saadawi and his brother Nuri Al-Saadawi led the National Congress Party in Libya wish emerged as the most popular party in the western areas of the country (Tripoli and Misrata) during the first elections held under the reign of the late King Idriss Alsanusi in 1952. The alliance between Al-Saadawi’s and other prominent families in the western and middle parts of Libya with King Idriss forced the colonizing powers in Libya at that time (Britain & Italy) to accept the Independence of the unified Libyan territories. With this political heritage in mind, Samir Al_Saadawi adopted early in his life and during his study period at the American University of Beirut, liberal values and began exploring ways of democratization in Libya specially after Gaddafi’s coup in 1969 resulted in years of tyranny in Libya.
As a writer, Samir Al-Saadawi called for promoting civil society, human rights and freedom of speech in Libya and the rest of the Middle East, he envisaged that this can only be achieved through building democratic institution, adopting transparency and establishing the rule of law.
Few days after the “February 17” uprising in Libya he wrote in “The Daily Star” a leading English newspaper in the Middle East, an article entitled “Roadmap for Ending Tripoli’s Siege” in wish he detailed his views on dealing with the emerging Libyan crisis. Since then Samir Al-Saadawi (whose family originates from Misrata) became an activist in support of the Libyan uprising in various forums and on Facebook, he managed to establish a network of relations with other prominent activists in Libya to encourage democratic transition in the country. (Saadawi can be spelled in different ways to give the same pronunciation in Arabic like: Saadaoui, Sedawi, Sa’adawi etc…)
