Could it Be?

I was listening to the news the other night and heard coverage of the rebels in Libya.  These were guys in the areas that the rebels have supposedly taken control of.  What I found interesting (and believe me I was not rivited by the report I was actually fixing dinner at the time) was when I heard one rebel speaking and it caught my attention that his English was as good as mine.  That's when I put aside what I was doing and actually watched the report.  This man didn't look middle eastern and he certainly didn't sound middle eastern.   He looked as American as I and his diction was actually far better than mine, because I am a Texan with a cajun slur thrown in.  So over the next few days I began to pay closer atention to these reports.  Once again I personally saw and heard a rebel who did not look like any of the other rebels he was with and he did not sound like the rebels he was with.
Today I saw a report where the rebel actually identified himself as an expatriated Libyan who had been living in the Netherlands or something (I think he said Amsterdam) and he had come home to help his people.  I did not doubt him.  That's okay.  That's a good thing.  What concerns me is are there Progressive, Marxist, Socialist, Communist Americans sticking their noses into the affairs of these people?
I don't know.  I'm just asking, "Could it be?"
