Qaddafi's Regime Close to Finished
Thousands of rebel fighters are close to toppling the regime of Libyan dictator Muammar "Daffy" Qaddafi, as thousands poured into Tripoli's streets and squares. Reports are that two of Qaddafi's sons are in custody. Qaddafi's whereabouts are unknown, as his soldiers continue to shed their uniforms and join the rebels. His compound has not yet been seized by rebel forces.
Hopefully, his defeat will be swift and as bloodless as possible. It's hoped that he can be taken alive, and tried by his own people for the crimes he's committed against them. The hours and days ahead will be critical in determining the future of Libya.
