TRIPOLI, Libya – NATO airstrikes targeted the center of Moammar Gadhafi's seat of power early Monday, destroying a multi-story library and office and badly damaging a reception hall for visiting dignitaries.

Gadhafi's whereabouts at the time of the attack on his sprawling Bab al-Azizya compound were unclear. A security official at the scene said four people were lightly hurt.

Monday's strike came after Gadhafi's forces unleashed a barrage of shells and rockets at the besieged rebel city of Misrata, in an especially bloody weekend that left at least 32 dead and dozens wounded.

The more we see the truth of how International Leadership conducts itself the easier it is to find them all rather disgusting. There is so much happening behind the scenes and you can bet keeping the American people from revolting is a big part of the equation they consider in the decisions being made. They are banking on our tolerance and it’s working in their favor.

I’m afraid you’re right. I think the tolerance is going to end badly. There will be fewer and fewer public appearances made by most politicians.

Yep! Can't say I'd blame them either.

Even I’m starting think there’s a some crazy conspiracy ‘military industrial complex’...haha...because what reason other than selling missiles could we possibly have there?...it’s not like we’re ever going to get oil from this place w/ the strategy we’re using. Might as well be throwing dollars in the fire.

Smells like an assassination attempt on Gaddafi.

We're not after "regime change" though! No sir!

When Obama ticks off enough Arab leaders because he lies about what NATO is doing then they will just pull another Carter years and stop selling us oil.

Get ready for $7 a gallon and odd/even days.

Double dip before fall.

The company I work for has laid off 100 plus people in the last four months.

Hope and change may yet kill my job.

People are forgetting that his bunker has five floors beneath the ground and is designed to survive a nuclear attack.

0 is just making sure Qadaffi never pulls off another 9/11 /s

Since NATO probably is just as riddled as the US military with Muzzie spies and turncoats, maybe. But Gaddafy’s also got common sense, and probably a news channel feed.
