A North Korean defector protests against North Korea's threat for war as South Koreans pass by on a street in Seoul, South Korea, Saturday, March 9, 2013. Nearly two decades ago, South Koreans cleared store shelves after a North Korean threat to turn Seoul into a "sea of fire" raised war panic. On Saturday, South Koreans expressed some fear but mostly apathy and restraint after a week of warlike rhetoric from the North, including another "sea of fire" vow. The letters read " When South Koreans submit to threat by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, we cannot keep the peace." (AP Photo/Ahn Young-joon)

FILE - In this Sunday, Feb. 17, 2013 file photo, a Libyan woman flashes the victory sign at Tahrir Square, during the second anniversary of the uprising that toppled longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi in Benghazi, Libya. Women played a major role in the 8-month civil war against dictator Moammar Gadhafi, massing for protests against his regime, selling jewelry to fund rebels, helping treat the wounded, smuggling weapons across enemy lines to rebels. But since Gadhafi’s fall more than 18 months ago, women have been rewarded by seeing rights they enjoyed under his rule hemmed in and restricted. (AP Photo/Mohammad Hannon, File)
