The rebels need to get their act together without the USA as we donot have money for our own people and country.It is time these war mongering countries take care of themselves.Jim Thomas Phx.Az.
Why did I waste my time commenting here? My previous comment was never published. Are we in Libya? So much for freedom of expression.
Obvious attention to NATO authorities; No doubt' probability Gadhafi is somewhere inside that hotel (considering a tunnel through it from his compound); Could be reason why reporter faced difficulties moving around the hotel?
Can that hotel be thoroughly evacuated, scanned' and searched from all angles' by NATO forces? Food for thought!!
It's outrageous that CNN and the western press allowed Al Jazeera take control of the Qaddafi compound capture by the rebels and had exclusive on site reporting, while CNN reporters were left behind. Was the abduction of western reporters planned by Al Jazeera or was CNN negligent?
Gaddaffi will be ousted the bagbo style.
