Breaking news Tripoli has fallen
NewsFirst News First
“Tripoli has fallen” - NBC’s Richard Engel from inside Qaddafi compound.
What,no raping??Pretty poor Muslums if you ask me.
Zero’s “Leading from behind - mission accomplished” speech from yesterday must be true then. Now there’s that pesky “Where’s Ghadaffi?” thing to deal with.
Didn’t Tripoli “fall” on Sunday with the arrest of Gaddafi’s son, who then showed up yesterday on live TV, in the middle of Tripoli?
can the kennebunkport compound be overtaken soon by obama arabs?
I hope the Libyan people love that Sharia.
Hey, if they ride Khaddafy out on a rail and string him up, I’ll overlook their zealotry this one time.

TRIPOLI, Libya - Rebels on Tuesday stormed Muammar Qaddafi’s fortress-like compound in Tripoli Tuesday after an all-day battle against forces loyal to the longtime leader.
The sprawling complex, heavily damaged by NATO airstrikes, is the most defining symbol of Qaddafi’s nearly 42-year rule and its fall, a day after the rebels swept into the Libyan capital with stunning speed, comes as the opposition faced pockets of resistance and fighting rocked the capital.
CBS News correspondent Barry Petersen, reporting from inside Qaddafi’s compound, said rebel soldiers didn’t find anyone after breaching the stronghold through its north gate.
“There was no one from Qaddafi’s army; no one was there,” a rebel soldier told Petersen.
An Associated Press reporter at the scene said the compound’s green gates were blasted open and hundreds of rebels were pouring into the complex, some driving golf carts as the area resounded with celebratory gunfire.
