    Libyan rebels: Unit protecting Gadhafi surrenders

    TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) — A senior rebel official says the military unit in charge of protecting Moammar Gadhafi and the capital Tripoli has surrendered. Mahmoud Shammam, the rebel minister of information, told the Associated Press on Sunday that the unit commander "has joined the revolution and ordered his soldiers to drop their weapons."

    When the unit dropped its arms, it essentially opened the way for the rebels to enter the city with little resistance.

      Gadhafi STILL DOES NOT KNOW WHERE HIS HEAD IS. He is still tlrying to negotate to stay in power 6 hours after his government FALLS. At this time it is most appropriate to ORDER Gadhafi to TURN HIMSELF IN and if he did not within the next 6 hours go hunt for him, find him, shave his Afro, remove his shoes, make him stand in fron of the Revolutionary Rebel Army of Libya and confess and applologize for his MASS MASSACRE, WHILE STANDING IN HAD-CUFF. Then rhrow him in UNDERGROUND JAIL WITHOUT ANY LIGHTS FOR 3 MONTHS, then bring him to court for judgement for being such a PEST TO HIS PEOPLE AND TO THE WORLD. He should also be made to APPOLOGIZE TO ALL THE FAMILIES OF THE Pan Am Bombing victiims over Lockerbee, Schottland. This should be done at the US Embassy, while standing in had-cuff and shackles before the Ambassador and his full staff in Tripoli, Libya, representing the US and other families who lost their loved ones. All of these should have global media coverage. His family, I think, is okay to live in Libya in peace. But Gadhafi should DO AT LEAST 50 years in an UNDERGROUND BANKER JAIL ALL BY HIMSELF, without ACCESS TO THE human society EVER and EVER AGAIN. !!!!!!!!!!!!!. This is the LEAST HE DESERVES, ONLY MORE, NOT LESS. My God Bless Libya and the Libyans.FOR EVER AND EVER. more............

      Saddam Hussein was captured in 2003. America celebrated, topple the regime. 8 years later and a trillion dollars of war debt, was not worth the invasion. Saddam was not an strategic threat to the United States nor did he support terrorism. Today, A trillion of American tax dollars has turn Iraq into a terrorist nest. Libya's rebels are infiltrated by radicals and extremists. You see Omar Ghadafi was not a national security risk to the United States. The after math of Libya will be a national security risk because extremist and islamic radicals are going to run wild in Libya!

      This is a welcome development for all Libyans. Let's all hope that more and more of Gadhafi's forces will see the futility of fighting and dying for a lost cause and surrender promptly too. The International Criminal Court can take custody of Gadhafi and his sons and in-laws and mete out proper punishment while the Libyans begin anew the enormously important challenge of establishing a government of the people, by the people and for the people that will secure their liberty, security and economic prosperity for generations to come.
