Israel Radio has just reported that Muammar Gadhafi has fled and the city of Tripoli has fallen. More to follow.
What happens next remains to be seen.
UPDATE 11:54 PM
Here's a report and video from Sky News which has a reporter embedded with the rebels:
Sky's special correspondent Alex Crawford, accompanying the rebels, said the opposition fighters were greeted with scenes of jubilation as they made their way through the outskirts of the capital.
As they entered the city, their cars gridlocked the roads, she said, and hundreds of people came out onto the streets to greet them.

"They (the rebels) had been expecting much more resistance but there has been very little."

More bad news. How much more can we take?
I hope and pray Mossad gets a hold of him.
There is a story came out six months that Col Gaddary is half Jewish LOL! I am serious and he try get saftey to Israel????
Rumors swirling on twitter that he is dead
“More bad news. How much more can we take?”
Carter’s foreign policy legacy was giving rise to the hate-filled terrorist state of Iran. It looks like Obama’s legacy will be giving rise to half a dozen more of them.
Dead like set up on an island paradise w/family dead or dragging his corpse through the street dead?
As predicted by Obama what, 6 months ago?
That’s the point. We can’t and that is what the communists want.
They envision a Bolshevik revolution and a cleansing. Millions dead. A new world.
is he going back to New Jersey or is Screwy Louie Faharakan taking him in?
Wonderful. Now we can expect Libya to be attacking Israel as well. Nice going Obama.
This has been quite a week. About 3-4 months long hasn’t it been?
If true it just means there will be God knows how many years of civil war between multiple factions.
Is Samantha Power gonna hold his seat until it all boils over?
Considering all the bitching and moaning about Khadaffi, one would think freepers had forgotten all about Pan Am 103.
I'd hate to think what would be said around here if the President got Bin Laden - people would probably bitch and moan about that too.
But what about his chick militia bodyguards? They couldn’t have ALL been having a mani/pedi at the same time.
