Gaddafi DEAD or Alive? NATO Air Bombs Tripoli HARD, Again.
NATO aircraft performed intensified bombings of Tripoli overnight, with government buildings bearing the brunt of the attacks. Early morning radio said it was a very hard attack with the Gaddafi compound being targeted. But if you remember, Gaddafis compound was already bombed last month. So is he even alive any more?

Misrata Rocket Attack Destroys Fuel Depo. Massive Fire!
They say the evil Gadhafi Force has used multiple rocket attacks to blow up a fuel depo in Misrata, Libya, Saturday Morning. They say "Fuel Depo" in a "Rebel strong hold", but they might as well have said Gas Station in a suburb. It looks like a fairly modern city to me. You have beach resorts and kids swimming in all the Panaramio photos. Damn war.
After midnight, rockets began landing and exploding in several areas of the terminal.
At least one rocket hit a set of three mammoth tanks, which ruptured and burst into a fireball. The fires blaze towered overheard, visible for miles. Its glow illuminated the eastern section of the city throughout the night. Residents woke to a thick, drifting cloud of black smoke and the news that Misurata’s port, had been peppered with antitank land mines.

Libyan officials took journalists to the house, which had been hit by at least three missiles. The roof had completely caved in in some areas, leaving strings of reinforcing steel hanging down among chunks of concrete.

Defense Secretary Robert Gates Says Arming And Training Of Libya Rebels Should Be Role Of Other Countries
The U.S. should avoid developing a closer relationship with Libyan opposition forces, defense leaders said Thursday, telling an often hostile Congress that foreign nations must now take over airstrike responsibilities and any effort to train and equip the rebels.
With the U.S. role in Libya at a turning point, the next critical decision is how, if at all, the U.S. chooses to support the opposition forces, particularly in the face of the ongoing budget crisis at home. Defense Secretary Robert Gates said he is opposed to arming the rebels, a step his boss President Barack Obama has not ruled out.........
