South African President Jacob Zuma’s efforts to negotiated better terms for a “roadmap” of power transition have hit a snag, as he reports Moammar Gadhafi has ruled out agreeing to leave the country.
Gadhafi had previously agreed to an African Union-brokered ceasefire, but it was rejected by the rebels amid complaints that it did not require Gadhafi and his entire family to flee the nation before free elections were to be held.
NATO has been threatening to launch another escalation of their war against Libya once these talks fail, and despite the regime’s eagerness for a ceasefire the failure of Zuma’s visit will likely be used as an excuse to do that.
At the same time, the United Nations is warning that a humanitarian crisis is emerging in the parts of West Libya under constant bombardment by NATO. Reports indicate the region is running low on food and medicine.
There is no reason why Gaddafi should leave. That's just the usual completely unjustified condition put on the peace deal by people who don't want peace. Nato doesn't want peace. They want Gaddafi's head.
And Libya's oil. They'd gladly trade one for the other too.
It is the biggest joke of the century to really think that gaddafi will leave or relinquish power especially when he sees what is happening to Hosni moubarack and sons.
secondly, He has still a lot of lybians who support his regime and nationalizm but what do you expect the people of Tripoli to do when their city is bombed daily for the last three month's and he is still there, is Nato right to keep on bombing the lybian capitol in the name of that devias decision to protect civilians? I tell you what this is a declaration of war from the skies.

"We are determined to continue our operation to protect the people of Libya." — NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen in a statement". This man is the Neo Fascism from Denmark.., this man needs to be prosecuted for war crimes against humanity…, meanwhile what these kind of people including Obama are doing and dragging this war for 90 more days is because they want to know how much of that $53 billion dollars can be stolen before ending this war.., This war is not about Obama,s democracy nor the EU democracy.., but is rather for stopping the African Union progress which Libya is part of it.., this war is about stealing the Libyan peoples and African Union wealth which Libya is contributing.., this is a modernized version in international mafia.
