From @FreeBanghazi, partial translation:

Q - Questioner
H - Hala Misrati

Libya.elHurra  HalaMisrati:

2.03 Q: "You never tried to negotiate with us, Hala."

H:"What is it? The thing is, you haven't been here. You were at the opposition (Benghazi) "

2.17 Q: "This is the reason that made you oppose us? "

H: "No, I wasn't against you. Because I was ...ok? & the situation was like this (clenches fists) "

2:27 Q: "What is the reason u changed your mind overnight? "
H: "Why did I change my mind? Because I hadn't seen what I have seen."

2:37 H: "Tried what? I didn't have a passport. I don't even have money to pay for a ticket. What are you saying? "

2:45 Come, let's go to our house and see our house. What are you saying? Even when I married, I married someone who didn't have a house.

2:251 H: "Even when i tried to travel, they wouldn't let me. They sent me back from Ras Ijdayr (near the Tunisian border). "

2:58 H: "What are you saying? For 2 months we were sleeping on the floor. No, not 2 months, 3 months! On the Quran, I was sleeping on the floor at the LIbyan channel. "

3:30 Q: No, Hassan. We just want her picture. Important thing is, this is Hala Misrati, filmed by Abdel Salam Abdullah Ishtawi.


Another translation from 4evrlonghorn from Libya AlHurra chatroom:

She is saying that she was a victom.

She claimed that she did not know how the Freedom Fighters are, since Tripoli was blocked from the outside world and they did not have a way to hear them.

She told the men, there are ppl happy here, but some are crying because they do not know who you are.

She added that she was forced to sleep in the tv station on a bare floor from feb to june and that she did not have money to buy an airline ticket so she can leave, and that she married a poor man.

She said she tried to go to Ras Jdaur, but they brought her back to Gaddafi.

She was yelling at the second man, "Why did you not rise until the outsiders told you to?"
