Mustafa Abdul-Jalil, the chairman of the National Transitional Council and de fact president, had already declared that Libyan laws in future would have Sharia, the Islamic code, as its "basic source".
But that formulation can be interpreted in many ways - it was also the basis of Egypt's largely secular constitution under President Hosni Mubarak, and remains so after his fall.
Mr Abdul-Jalil went further, specifically lifting immediately, by decree, one law from Col. Gaddafi's era that he said was in conflict with Sharia - that banning polygamy.
In a blow to those who hoped to see Libya's economy integrate further into the western world, he announced that in future bank regulations would ban the charging of interest, in line with Sharia. "Interest creates disease and hatred among people," he said.
Gulf states like the United Arab Emirates, and other Muslim countries, have pioneered the development of Sharia-compliant banks which charge fees rather than interest for loans but they normally run alongside western-style banks.

[what's this]
In the first instance, interest on low-value loans would be waived altogether, he said.
Libya is already the most conservative state in north Africa, banning the sale of alcohol. Mr Abdul-Jalil's decision - made in advance of the introduction of any democratic process - will please the Islamists who have played a strong role in opposition to Col Gaddafi's rule and in the uprising but worry the many young liberal Libyans who, while usually observant Muslims, take their political cues from the West.

I don't know if this is a laughing or crying matter... In a way I think its comical that people actually believe the spirit of George Washington will emerge in muslim hellholes like this... The sad part of the situation is that the vast majority of people believe that anything will change in countries like that are barking up the wrong tree... One only has to look at the track record over the past few years to see nothing short of bombing the places flat with a cleansing blast will cure the problem.

When will people (not JTF'ers) get it through their thick heads that shariah and Western style democracy are incompatible? Kaddaffi (sp?) was a bad man, and I shed no tears for him. However, we had him neutralized, in terms of being a threat to America. Now an even more fanatic, barbaric government will emerge in his place. That's what you get when you try to bring "democracy" to Muslim countries. It just means you'll have mob rule where the masses elect the most barabaric, fanatic rulers. Look at Egypt as another example.
Has anyone been wondering why we haven't sent troops to Syria who's also been killing her own citizens who were protesting? Or what about Iran, where Ahmadinejad supposedly got most of the vote in the last election.
The fact is, Barack Hussein Obama only wants anti-American, anti-Israel regimes in power in the Middle East. That's why he hasn't lifted a finger against Syria and Iran, which are Hezbollah's main sponsors. Obama knows exactly what he's doing.
