Libyan rebels offer amnesty to Kadhafi soldiers
2011-05-30
[Maghrebia] National Transitional Council (TNC) chief Mustafa Abdul Jalil offered amnesty Saturday (May 28th) to soldiers who leave Muammar Qadaffy
... Custodian of Wheelus AFB for 42 long years ...
's forces, international press reported. "Those still betting on Moamer Qadaffy's regime should wake up to reality and abandon it and join the righteous and just cause," he said at a Benghazi presser. Defectors guilty of crimes before the start of the February 17th revolution would be guaranteed "a fair trial," he added, while those who committed crimes after that date would be pardoned if they left the regime now.

#2  I'm guessing that the Algerians will have the French running out of North Africa, just as they had De Gaulle running with his tail between his legs in '62

#1  What a mess this Libya process has become. Ethnic cleansing has already begun in the rebel held areas.We now will have a long term chronic problem here even with Kadhafi gone. Look how Egypt is unraveling. Very similar to how our government is handling our economic problems. Prolonged sustained chaos with a touch of the butterfly effect. When we have time travel we might be able to bugger it all up more.
