US president B. H. Obama, said NATO is considering military options in response to situation in Libya. "al Jazeera"
The issue here is that, we have seen countless bloodshed in many African countries, and currently is the Ivorian Bagbo slaying his fellow country men and women, denying peolple of their choice, Quatarra.
Illegal regime (Bagbo) vs Legal regime (Quatarra).
There is no NATO thing ever mentioned over Ivorian Crisis.
No security council (Terror Council as once put in by Ghadafi) ever sat discussing Ivorian crisis.
Sio uzandiki huu!!!!!!!!

The Spanish Government has frozen all the assets which the Gaddafi regime has in Spain, as part of the application of an EU regulation.

The EU is working to a list drawn up by the United Nations, in which individual names, companies, and associations of the Gaddafi regime known to have been used for the disposal of assets are itemised.

In addition all Spanish diplomatic personnel are being withdrawn from Libya. A statement said that the embassy is to be ‘semi-closed', with only local people remaining at their posts to carry out administrative duties. The move does not signify however any breaking of diplomatic relations and is in line with other EU countries.

Among the assets frozen is the 6,000 hectares of land which Muamar al Gaddafi has in Benahavis on the Costa del Sol, and where there were plans to build nearly 2,000 homes, a golf course and congress hall.

The Spanish Ministry for Tax and the Economy is to investigate also whether there are any bank accounts from members of the Libyan regime in Spain.

It comes as the Spanish Prime Minister is continuing his tour of the Gulf and North African countries. Today, Wednesday, José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero is in Tunisia, expressing ‘a gesture of support for the moves to democracy in the country.

Nilimsikiliza Mhe Membe akihojiwa na TV jana akisema yanayotokea Libya hayawezi kutokea huku kwetu "kwa vile kuna serikali iliyochaguliwa na wananchi, tofauti na Libya"
 
(CNN) -- NATO has launched around-the-clock surveillance flights of Libya as it considers various options for dealing with escalating violence in the war-torn country, America's ambassador to the organization told reporters Monday.

Representatives of key Western powers also highlighted the possibility of establishing a no-fly zone in Libya -- part of growing campaign to break strongman Moammar Gadhafi's grip on power.
British, French and U.S. officials were working on a draft text that includes language on a no-fly zone, diplomatic sources at the United Nations told CNN.

The language in the text will deal with triggers rather than timelines for taking such a step, one diplomat noted. If gross violations of human rights are committed, the diplomat added, the elements of the text could be quickly turned into a resolution.

Any resolution on military intervention in Libya, however, would be subject to a vote by the 15 members of the U.N. Security Council. Such intervention could face sharp criticism from Russia and China, who rarely approve of such measures.

"The violence that's been taking place and perpetrated by the government in Libya is unacceptable," U.S. President Barack Obama said at the White House. Moammar Gadhafi's government "will be held accountable for whatever violence continues to take place there."
Obama stressed that NATO is considering a wide range of responses -- including military options -- for dealing with the crisis.

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney later cited three potential responses under active consideration: establishing the no-fly zone, military-backed humanitarian aid, and stronger enforcement of the U.N. arms embargo.
Carney downplayed speculation about the possibility of providing arms to the Libyan rebels, telling reporters that "it would be premature to send a bunch of weapons to a post office box in eastern Libya."

"We need to not get ahead of ourselves in terms of the options we're pursuing," he warned.

A senior U.S. official familiar with the administration's deliberations on Libya denied a report in the British press that the administration had asked Saudi Arabia to arm the rebels.

Venezuela's Hugo Chavez loses Libya stadium honour



A stadium in eastern Libya named in honour of Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has been stripped of its title, opposition groups say. The Hugo Chavez stadium outside Benghazi has been renamed "Martyrs of February", in memory of people killed fighting to overthrow the Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi.

President Chavez is a close ally of Colonel Gaddafi. Last week he offered to mediate in the conflict in Libya.

"The name has been officially changed to 'Martyrs of February,'" the policeman responsible for guarding the stadium, Jaled al-Barghati, told the AFP news agency.

"The decision was made by the [opposition] National Council following a request from the local population," he added. The sign with Hugo Chavez's name on it still stands at the entrance to the stadium, but the new name is emblazoned on its walls in red graffiti. The 11,000 seat stadium in Benina, outside Benghazi, was named after the left-wing Venezuelan leader in 2009.

The Libyan Football Federation said it wanted to honour him for his "brave humanitarian positions," particularly in support of the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. President Chavez and Col Gaddafi have built up a close relationship over the years, based on their shared opposition to what they see as US "imperialism" and interest in reviving the oil exporters' cartel, Opec.

Last week Mr Chavez offered to set up an international peace mission to mediate in the Libyan crisis, but the initiative has received a cool reception in Libya and from Western nations. He has also accused the US and other Nato countries of exaggerating the crisis in Libya to justify an invasion and seize control of Libya's oil.
