Joseph Logan and Mohammed Abbas: Libya Raped By Greedy Oil Men!

NATO launched a fourth night of air strikes on Tripoli on Thursday, leaving smoke rising from Libyan leader Muamar Gaddafi's compound , after the United States said: A Ceasefire offer from Libya was NOT credible! Several large explosions rocked Tripoli late on Thursday night, and a column of smoke was seen rising from Gaddafi's Bab al-Aziziyah base, according to a Reuters correspondent. Forces loyal to Gaddafi launched the heaviest bombardment on the rebel-held city of Misrata for days earlier on Thursday, as "Western" leaders gathered for a Group of Eight summit in the French seaside resort of Deauville. Rebel spokesmen in Misrata, scene of some of the fiercest fighting in Libya's three month old conflict, said a mortar attack there killed three rebels. Suleim Al-Faqih said the Misrata clashes started when rebels attacked Gaddafi forces, who were using an excavator to dig a trench to block the road: "We fired on them and advanced. They fell back and started firing mortars," he said. At a news conference in Misrata late on Thursday, Fathi al Bashaagha, a member of the town's military council, said rebel forces advanced four kilometers west on Thursday and destroyed weapons depots belonging to Gaddafi loyalists before falling back to their front line on Misrata's outskirts.
