I've said it before and I'll say it again. Gaddafi is so the devil himself. He is a crazed lunatic that cannot concieve that his people don't want him. I can't beleive he would rather burn Libiya alive than relinquish his power. He is absolutely a nut case.

And I quote him...."At the suitable time, we will open the arms depot so all Libyans and tribes become armed, so that Libya becomes red with fire," It looks like he has bribed civilians and armed them to terrorize the people of Tripoli. I don't beleive sanctions will be enough to put this man in his place. I would love to see UN forces go in and take him out. I know....I am day dreaming...they don't do that kind of thing. Nope, it will probably be our military that will have to go in a liberate Libiya. I wonder if Obama will step into that arena.
I agree. Sanctions are silly. Excluding oil, we have hardly any trade with Libya anyway. The UN is lame (Libya sits on the Human Rights Council for Pete's sake!). Obama will do nothing militarily, so the fate of Libya is in the hands of its people. Despots do not easily relinquish power, and it usually occurs at the hands of the people he oppresses.
And good on the President saying...."The president stated that when a leader's only means of staying in power is to use mass violence against his own people, he has lost the legitimacy to rule and needs to do what is right for his country by leaving now," the White House said.
What causes people to insist on staying in a place where people don't want them? Any way...good on the white house telling him he should leave. Doesn't mean that he will...but good for them telling him to do so.
