Libya: Ready for civil war?

The whole world is looking with much interest on the North Africa and Middle East. Rulers that have ruled with an iron fist have been shaken by the frustration of the people of decades of poverty, fear, and abuse. For the first time the Arab people are not blaming the west for their destitute lives but their own leaders.
The big question is, who will fill in the big void that these regimes leave. The Arabic systems did not leave much of a civil and secular opposition except the Islamic groups who see these events as an opportunity to convert the Arab world into theocratic Islamic states.
We see evidence of this in Egypt, Tunisia, Jordan, Yemen, and now Libya.
