Via Washington Post:
TRIPOLI, Libya — Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi escaped a NATO missile strike in Tripoli on Saturday, but his youngest son and three grandchildren under the age of 12 were killed, a government spokesman said.Our defense of rebels with ties to al-Qaeda and who shout "Allahu Akbar" kind of prove my point about the United States doing the wrong thing here.
The strike, which came hours after Gadhafi called for a cease-fire and negotiations in what rebels called a publicity stunt, marked an escalation of international efforts to prevent the Libyan regime from regaining momentum.
Rebels honked horns and chanted “Allahu Akbar” or “God is great” while speeding through the western city of Misrata, which Gadhafi’s forces have besieged and subjected to random shelling for two months, killing hundreds. Fireworks were set off in front of the central Hikma hospital, causing a brief panic that the light would draw fire from Gadhafi’s forces.
If going to war against Libya sent Farrakhan and Shabazz into racist rants, surely the death of Gadhafi's son and grandchildren is bound to do the same thing.
Stay tuned....
