Synagogue in Tripoli

UPDATE: A commenter notes a story in today's Guardian about David Gerbi, who has returned from the diaspora and hopes to restore the synagogue.

UPDATE 2: And now Ha'aretz is reporting Gerbi has encountered relocked doors and threats against him.

As I noted recently, the last Jewish resident of Libya left in 2003, though the revolutionaries have been in contact with the Libyan Jewish diaspora. 

Now here is a gallery of pictures (note: some rights reserved) of the Dar al-Bishi synagogue in Tripoli, post revolution, a last monument to a once significant community.

Thanks to several people who linked to this.
