I wonder why the Troops have offered no resistance, have they surrendered or are they regrouping somewhere? Or do they simply not exist anymore?

EDIT: I mean in the city square.
eh?

Gaddafi's army is still fighting against the rebels, if that's what you're asking.

edit: just saw your edit. The rebels took the city square.
It is, in the end, whatever the Hell I want it to be, And when I'm through with it, it's gonna blow a hole, This wide, straight through the worlds own idea of itself. They're throwing bottles at your house. Come on, lets go break their arms.

Now the NTC is saying Saif has been captured. No confirmation. But it is said that pictures will soon follow.

France 24: Gomaa Al Komati of the Libyan NTC: I confirm that Saif Al Islam has been captured. We believe Gaddafi is now in Algeria #Libya


If this is true then Algeria, which has had riots and protests in the past, just put themselves further in a corner not only with Libya, and the rest of the World but it's own people possibly.

Funny how they deleted that article from their site after they have been proven wrong. Celebratory gunfire should have given them a hint


lol your right shit is hitting the fan now actually they changed the url

its this now http://rt.com/news/rebels-attack-tripoli-misinformation-795/

I wonder how much people are dying at this moment


Is that a branch of the North-Korean news agency or something? I do hope you don't actually believe that stuff.


What are you trying to imply by saying "Is that a branch of the North-Korean news agency or something?"

and what news sources would you recommend?


Trying? I thought it was pretty obvious. That news report is about as reliable as the one telling you that Kim-Jong-Il managed to shoot 11 first holes in a row when he played on his new golf court.

It's one of those ridiculous "news" sources wich just make up these insane bullshit stories that are just so far out there that you start to wonder...wtf is this. It's so outlandishly false you just have to wonder who really buys into that stuff.

It's scary stuff when people believe their worldview is so superior to that of others that they can just make shit up and lie to people as long as it works in their favour. Nearly all the idiots on that comment page don't even stop, they just eat those ridiculous lies up because it suits their insane worldviews.

The guys making up that news probably even know it's all nothing but lies. It's so totalitarian it's revolting.


What news sources would i recommend? Go for the economist, it has very indepth reporting and a reputation that they value a great deal, they wouldn't squander it on cheap reporting. That site you linked to probably has a reputation similar to a tabloid.

Some people grow so cynical that they start to think that the more cynical they get, the closer they are to the truth. There are many people who truly believe in journalistic integrity and value their reputation.


People complain about the mainstream not reporting on what they want or not indepth enough, i just can't help but facepalm. Go for a better source, there are many out there but that shit website you linked to is nothing of the sorts. It's seriously revolting to see people lying to obviously just to promote some ridiculous worldview.

Do they even stop and wonder how many corpses they are trampeling over when they report yet another fake news report about how everyone really loves Gaddaffi and that the rebels fighting for a future are really just cia agents.

Take everything with some ample pinches of salt:

First tweets live that Khadafi was shot dead by rebels.

Gaddafi giving another audio message, sounds tired and vengeful.

EDIT: His words are revealing on the structure of NATO when one thinks about it. The French occupier, the return of British Imperialism.

CORRECTION: Source in #Tripoli who has been v. reliable got his wires crossed. A lot of confusion out there. #Gaddafi is ALIVE. Just about.
