FILE - In this Sunday, Oct. 23, 2011 file photo, Libyan National Transitional Council military commander of Tripoli Abdel Hakim Belhaj waves prior to his speech at Saha Kish Square in Benghazi, Libya, as Libya's transitional government declare liberation of Libya after months of bloodshed that culminated in the death of longtime leader Moammar Gadhafi. Libya's elections bring in a large new political generation of independents _ businessmen, activists, former judges and former exiles _ who form the largest bloc in the first elected national assembly after Moammar Ghadafi's fall and will be the big wild card in determining the country's course. Both a coalition led by secular former Prime Minister Mahmoud Jibril and Islamists led by the Muslim Brotherhood are trying to woo them, but many of the independents are trying to form their own coalition, distrusting both sides.(AP Photo/Francois Mori, File)
