The rise and fall of Colonel Muamar Gadaffi

[Mbu]

14:38 Reuters The Ugandan government has seized control of Libya's majority stake in Uganda Telecom to comply with UN sanctions, technology minister Aggrey Awori tells Reuters.

Museveni anauma akipuliza. Anajua 'uwekezaji' wa Ghaddafi umesaidia kupunguza suala la ajira nchini Uganda, wakati huo huo pato la taifa kutokana na biashara hizo zinakuza Uchumi. No wonder kajitolea kumfadhili 'Rafiki' wakati wa dhiki.

I wish Tanzania tungemfadhili bana. :A S-coffee:

Rebels in Libya are struggling to hold their front line after Col Muammar Gaddafi's forces recaptured several towns in the east of the country.

Mr Obama told reporters on Tuesday that Col Gaddafi had been greatly weakened by the coalition air strikes and would ultimately step down.

On Tuesday, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Mr Hague both suggested the UN resolution authorising international action in Libya could also permit the supply of weapons.
This message was reinforced by Mr Cameron in his comments to MPs on Wednesday, in which he said that as the UN ceasefire was clearly being breached it was right to keep up pressure from the air, while not ruling out the option of arming the rebels.

France and the US say they are sending envoys to the rebel-held city of Benghazi in the east to liaise with the interim administration there.
And British Foreign Secretary William Hague said a UK diplomat met Libyan rebel leaders in Benghazi earlier this week.
The UK has also made moves to expel five Libyan diplomats based in London, Mr Hague told MPs on Wednesday.

"UN [Security Council Resolution] 1973 allows all necessary measures to protect civilians and civilian-populated areas, and our view is this would not necessarily rule out the provision of assistance to those protecting civilians in certain circumstances," Cameron said.

Cease fire kwa Gaddaffi tu?

Wanaaposonga mbele waasi sawa, wanapopata kipigo kutoka kwa jeshi la Gaddaffi, West na US wanapata kiwewe!!!

Ni dadili kuwa mwisho wake West na US badala ya washauri wa kijeshi on the ground ,kwa upande wa rebels, watapeleka foot soldiers ili wahakikishe rebels wanamshinda Gaddaffi.....Kazi kweli kweli.

Supu yake nzuri sana. Musoma na Iringa ni mboga ya kawaida. Inatia ujasiri ndio maana Wakurya na Wahehe ni wanajeshi wakakamavu sana. Not a joke.

Umesema Musoma-Wakurya au unamaanisha Mara(Serengeti na Jamhuri ya watu wa Tarime) Hiyo mboga huko inaitwaje??

Mie nashangaa sana.. Hivi unadhani UN ni watu wa kuaminika na kuwategemea?? Endelea kuwaamini hao kina Cameron maana wanaipenda sana Africa(Kwa mujibu wako).. Toka lini mabepari yakawa na uchungu na raia wa Afrika, unahitaji kutafakari zaidi.. Kwa mtindo huu tuna safari ndefu sana.. Yaani mtu anakaa na kuamini kila matamshi yanayotoka kwa viongozi wa UN!!! Tuwe serious..

Kwenye post zangu huko mwanzo nilisema fatilia vizuri historia ya RothChild, Jesuits... Pia fatilia vizuri historia ya UN na US.. Sikiliza wachambuzi wa kutoka mahala pengine pia, sio unasikiliza BBC,CNN, FOX and the like na ku-Conclude.. Just try to go beyond that and think na u-judge.. Fatilia historia ya ma-rais wa US waliowahi kuuawa.. Fatilia kwa ukaribu historia ya Vietnam, kipindi kile rais aliporudisha majeshi toka Vietnam na akauawa na majeshi yakaambiwa kusonga mbele kuikabili Vietnam

SOMA HIKI KITABU, UKITAKA VINGINE NIAMBIE NIKUPATIE

Quick to jump into conclusions aren't we? Alafu unaniambia niache kuconclude heheeh!! Hiyo post uliyoiquote sio maneno yangu bali ni press release ya NATO sasa next kabla ujakimbilia kuconclude vitu jaribu kusoma na kuelewa kwanza.

Blue: Unamzungumzia Kennedy ama rais gani? Maana ukiangalia mpaka 1963 kulikuwa na wanajeshi 16,000 wa kimarekani ndani ya South Vietnam kutoka 900 wakati wa kipindi cha Eisenhower

Vipi kuhusu malkia wa Uingereza, ye huchaguliwa na nani, na yuko madarakani toka lini?

United Kingdom ni Constitutional Monarchy kama ilivyo Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Swaziland na nchi zote zizilizo na wafalme huwezi kumlinganisha Gaddafi (Rais) aliyemtoa madarakani mfalme na mtawala wa kifalme.. Siwezi kuamini umeuliza swali kama hili. Seriously?

Rebels retreat from Libya oil port under attack


AJDABIYA, Libya – Moammar Gadhafi's ground forces recaptured a strategic oil town Wednesday and were close to taking a second, making new inroads in beating back a rebel advance toward the capital Tripoli. Western powers kept up the pressure to force Gadhafi out with new airstrikes to weaken his military, hints that they may arm the opposition and intense negotiations behind the scenes to find a country to give haven to Libya's leader of more than 40 years.

"I ask NATO for just one aircraft to push them back. All we need is air cover and we could do this. They should be helping us," Hadi said.

The retreat Wednesday looked like a mad scramble: Pickup trucks, with mattresses and boxes tied on, driving east at 100 mph (160 kilometers per hour).

"There's something strange about the way he attacked us today," said Abdullah Abdel-Jalil, a 31-year-old ambulance driver. "The Grad rockets, the tanks, the quantity of it all, he's stronger than we thought. It's way too intense."


Diplomats were attempting to persuade Gadhafi to leave without military force.
Italian Foreign Minister Franco Frattini said negotiations on securing Gadhafi's exit were being conducted with "absolute discretion" and that there were options on the table that hadn't yet been formalized.

"What is indispensable is that there be countries that are willing to welcome Gadhafi and his family, obviously to end this situation which otherwise could go on for some time," he said.

But the Italian diplomat insisted immunity for Gadhafi was not an option. "We cannot promise him a 'safe-conduct' pass," he stressed.
Libyan Foreign Minister Moussa Koussa visited Tunisia briefly, but there was no word if this was linked to the secret talks.
Uganda appeared to be the first country to publicly offer Gadhafi refuge.

TRIPOLI (Reuters) – Libyan rebels pulled out of the oil town of Ras Lanuf on Wednesday under heavy bombardment from Muammar Gaddafi's forces, showing up their weakness without Western air strikes to tip the scales in their favor.

Gaddafi's army first ambushed the insurgent pick-up convoy outside the "brother leader's" hometown of Sirte, then outflanked them through the desert, a maneuver requiring the sort of discipline entirely lacking in rag-tag rebel force.

So kwa kifupi ni kuwa Gaddafi and his family wanatafuta nchi ya kuhamia in return waachie madaraka and possibly wasishitakiwe?

Waasi nchini Libya wanahangaika kushikilia mstari wao wa mbele baada ya majeshi ya Kanali Muammar Gaddafi kudhibiti upya miji kadhaa mashariki mwa nchi hiyo.

Waasi hao kwa sasa wamepoteza bandari muhimu ya mafuta ya Ras Lanuf na mji jirani wa Bin Jawad, hata hivyo ripoti zinasema kuwa mapigano yanaendelea eneo hilo.

Upande wa magharibi, mji unaodhibitiwa na waasi wa Misrata bado unashambuliwa na majeshi yanayomwuunga mkono Gaddafi.

Awali Rais wa Marekani Barack Obama amesema uwezekano upo wa kuwapa silaha waasi wenye nia ya kumpindua Kanali Gaddafi.

Alisema katika mahojiano kuwa Kanali Gaddafi amedhoofishwa kwa kiasi kikubwa na hatimaye atang'oka.

Majeshi yanayomwuunga mkono Gaddafi yamewarejesha nyuma waasi kwa kilomita kadhaa katika eneo walilokuwa wamedhibiti siku za hivi karibuni baada mashambulio ya anga yaliyofanywa na jeshi la muungano.

Waasi wamekimbilia upande wa mashariki kupitia mji wa Ras Lanuf.

Taarifa za waasi kurudi nyuma zimetolewa huku kukiwa na mkutano wa kimataifa juu ya Libya ambao umehusisha mataifa ya kiarabu kusaidia katika kuijenga Libya baada ya kumtoa Gaddafi.

Maelfu ya watu wameuliwa na kujeruhiwa tangu machafuko dhidi ya uongozi wa Kanali Gaddafi ulipoanza zaidi ya wiki sita zilizopita, huku waasi wakidhibiti eneo kubwa la mashariki na wanaomwuunga mkono Kanali Gaddafi wakishikilia mji mkuu wa Tripoli na miji mingine magharibi mwa nchi hiyo.

Anaonekana kama anamnong'oneza Gaddafi na kumwambia "yes G, pass the kutchie on di left hand side. It a go burn"!

Libyan foreign minister defects, arrives in Britain

LONDON | Wed Mar 30, 2011 4:44pm EDT

LONDON (Reuters) - Libyan foreign minister Moussa Koussa arrived in Britain on Wednesday to seek refuge after quitting the government in protest against leader Muammar Gaddafi's forces attacks on civilians, a friend told Reuters.

"He has defected from the regime," said Noman Benotman, a friend and senior analyst at Britain's Quilliam think tank.

"He wasn't happy at all. He doesn't support the government attacks on civilians," he said.

"He's seeking refuge in Britain and hopes he will be treated well," Benotman said.

Koussa is one of Gaddafi's key officials and the architect of a dramatic shift in Libya's foreign policy that brought the country back to the international community after years of sanctions.
