Default Libyan area denial at sea: Phase 2

Now that their SSM sites were taken out it looks like they are planting mines to block Misrata Harbor

Gaddafi son, grandsons killed in strikes
Quote:
Saif al-Arab Gaddafi, the youngest son of embattled Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, and three of Gaddafi's grandsons have been killed in a NATO airstrike.

"The house of Saif al-Arab Gaddafi was attacked tonight with full power. The leader with his wife was there in the house with other friends and relatives," Libyan government spokesman Moussa Ibrahim told reporters at press conference in Tripoli early on Sunday morning, AFP reported.

"The attack resulted in the martyrdom of Saif al-Arab, 29 years old, and three of the leader's grandchildren," Ibrahim said.

"The leader himself is in good health; he wasn't harmed. His wife is also in good health; she wasn't harmed, (but) other people were injured," he added.

"This was a direct operation to assassinate the leader of this country," he stated.

Didn't the white house spokesman said a week ago after Qaddafi's"s palace was bombed that NATO is not actively working for regime change?
(targeting Qaddafi)
Just defending civilians against Libyan army.

It would make more sense if they just said that there is no "no fly zone".
At least Bush when he did something he admitted he did it-(more or less).

I have no sympathy for Qaddafi its just an observation.

Just FWI your statements would border less on the absurd if you didn't quote your news from an arm of Iranian state propaganda.

I am no fan of Gaddafi either, but what's happening there is another murder in the name of democracy. Murder, plain and simple.

And, in the modern language, the democracy means oil.
