Saif al-Islam, Moammar Gadhafi's son, has been captured, according to the head of the Rebel National Transitional Council in an interview with Al Jazeera.
Meanwhile, a Libyan government spokesman warned of humanitarian disaster and a "massacre" in Tripoli as rebel forces advanced into the capital Sunday, but said forces loyal to longtime strongman Moammar Gadhafi were holding off the attacks.

There are 2 named Saif, so I’ll hold the confetti.
Libya may be ruled by a megalomaniac, but the war is a war by European liberals to grab the oil of Libya. Since socialism has failed in Europe, they need to to get the oil from Libya. Spain and Italy have the most presence in the oil fields of Libya.

Is this the same son who reportedly just fled the country?
Hopefully some one will have an I phone to tape the future hanging of Saif al-Islam by the good people of libya.
You hear that Assad?
You hear that Putin?
You hear that Obamma?
Overthrowing a tyrant is not a bad thing—but this tyrant was no longer a threat to us.
The Islamofascists I predict will take his place, however,WILL BE.
So Obama,in your Islamophilic ignorance,did you sow the wind?
Looks like Tripoli has fallen.
Daffi’s on the run....his sons captured, and the Presidential Guard has completely surrendered to rebel forces.
Verified via Al Jazeera.
Following it live.
Live just now. Two South African planes on the tarmac in Tripoli....just arrived a few moments ago. SA denies, but confirmed on the ground by AJ reporters.
Maybe now they can tell us .5 trillion floated through his country in Sept. 2008.
He is the offspring of Gadhafi and his first wife Al-baaaaa-sheep-ba,
A lot of American dollars were invested in Libya. Wonder what happen to those investors??
Every socialist country ruins its own means of production and is ultimately reduced to foreign aid or conquest to keep the party going.
Are you talking about the hot all-babe personal guard Daffy has? They looked so unapproachable, and now they've completely surrendered?
You’re correct. We’re are all the wacko with their “no blood for oil” signs?
There is another report that Gaddafi's compound has just been surrounded and he may be making a last stand.
Anyone can do that.
They did that in the Sahat al Sahir (Liberation) Square in Baghdad, too, when we liberated them, and then there was hell to pay for, for nearly 8 years after that.
Having said that, and not as an endorsement of this new crowd, I will say that Ronald Reagan is smiling from heaven at the news that Khaddafi has been deposed it seems.So perhaps are the US military souls from the LaBelle Disco blast in West German, and many others who were victims of Libyan terrorism.
And, mark my words. Obama will try to use that imagery in his reelection campaign in a TV ad (providing the whole thing does not implode between now and November 2012).
Gaddafi's troops stuck between Brega & Sirte are negotiating a surrender to lay-down weapons.
Reports that Qaddafi may be holding out at the Hospital at Tajoura, 28 km E of Tripoli. Many rebels heading there from Green Square.
Another report that Qaddafi is at a base called Sabha in the Fezzan 660 km s of Tripoli.
