The best we can hope for now is that whoever succeeds Gaddafi isn’t an islamist.

I have that same unsettling feeling about Egypt and Yemen as well.

By Monday, Gaddafi will go the way of Saddam Hussein, he is in other words, a “dead man walking”.

US Embassy in Tripoli issued this a while ago:

“Chartered Aircraft Evacuation February 25, 2011

A U.S. Government chartered aircraft will depart Tripoli to Istanbul, Turkey, from the Mitiga Air Field near downtown Tripoli, on Friday, February 25. Processing of passengers will begin promptly at 12:00 p.m. local time. U.S. citizen travelers wishing to depart should proceed directly to Mitiga Air Field as the U.S. Government is unable to provide ground transportation for U.S. citizens. U.S. citizens will be processed on a first-come, first-served basis, with priority given to persons with medical emergencies or severe medical conditions. The aircraft will depart no later than 5:30 p.m. local time.”

From my blog:

http://annem040359.wordpress.com/2011/02/22/qaddafi-a-defiant-ruler-who-just-plain-evil-and-nuts/

Rush Limbaugh touched upon it during his show today. I have KNOWN for years that Gaddafi is a NUTJOB BIGTIME. The events of this week brought it all out for the whole world to see.

and therein lies the problem of rebels occupying the oil fields “as long as it is in the best interests of the people”. These flakes are getting ready to pocket mucho dinero-& i’m sure they feel they are entitled to it.

With this money jihad will continue and expand-they won’t stop ‘til they have their way including the US

Catching several twits that forces from Benghazi are now in the eastern burbs of Tripoli and the showdown ‘will be tonite’. Apparently Tripoli airspace is shutdown, assuming the rebels are in control.

From another tweet. You know what is funny: I forgot that Libya sits on the UN Human Rights Council. What a damn joke the UN is. Mexico has now formally asked that they be removed.

Well that's a major plus for Arizona,just shows why the UN should not get another cent never even be on these AMERICAN shores.

I’m getting that as well from following .....no doubt this is the showdown.

Terrible things happening to their people, but in the end it is the people who have fought their war for freedom..as it should be. But we all do wonder what form and shape their freedom will be when it’s done....I doubt what they have hoped for.

They already “have their way” - look at the white hut. Put there 7 years after 9/11 by idiots brainwashed by TV and Prince AL Waleed’s Fox is not better.

What it looks like is that the revolutionary military forces are headed to the center of Tripoli where the civilians are skirmishing already. It looks like the rest of the country has fallen.

If the airports are closed then I’d say TheDaffy has few options and is going to make a stand. Question is how nasty will it be? He apparently has chemical weapons.

It does look like the oilfields though are secured with no damage.

As a side note, I can’t believe in the juvenile imbecility of some of the twits, especially from the liberal ones. These people are infantile in their view of the world. How are they ever going to survive if it gets rough?

Just caught several twits that foreigners are being targeted now, and that the military is dumping protester bodies in the sea.

Shia. Shia is on a roll. I think Sunni is in the white hut.
