Aisha Gaddafi, Muammar Gaddafi's Daughter: Libya Government In Talks With Rebels

Aisha Gaddafi

06/30/11 06:16 PM ET   AP

PARIS — The daughter of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi says both direct and indirect negotiations are being held between her father's authorities and Libyan rebels.

Aicha Gadhafi didn't elaborate during the France-2 network interview aired on French television Thursday night.

But she added to end the spilling of Libyan blood "we are ready to ally ourselves with the devil, with the rebel army."

During the translated interview filmed in a Tripoli hotel Aicha Gadhafi said her father remains "strong" and cannot leave the land where he is "a symbol, a guide."

Gadhafi's only daughter, in her mid-30s, held back tears when speaking of France's role in the NATO bombing campaign.

Aicha Gadhafi studied in France and said she had lost a daughter and brother in the bombings.

Air Force and Navy aircraft are still flying hundreds of strike missions over Libya despite the Obama administration’s claim that American forces are playing only a limited support role in the NATO operation.

An Africa Command (AFRICOM) spokeswoman confirmed Wednesday that since NATO’s Operation Unified Protector (OUP) took over from the American-led Operation Odyssey Dawn on March 31, the U.S. military has flown hundreds of strike sorties.

She will probably be the next leader of Libya when Qaddafi retires later this decade.
04:18 PM on 07/02/2011
Probably not, Qaddafi has plenty of sons, and Libya is still a very conservative nation.

I LOVE OBAMA FOR STARTING THIS WAR, HE IS NOW OFFICIALLY A WARMONGER
01:48 PM on 07/02/2011
Because clearly its a war, not a UN Resolution that we have been taking a backseat to and letting Europe do most of it. Are our troops on the ground?

And we won't be stuck in that country for 10 years looking in the wrong place for the guy we want to kill to somehow justify the deaths of thousands while killing thousands of innocents with drone bombings, murders, and the after effects of our actions.

MOORISLUM INVASION of the earth all over again and this time, unlike with moohamed, we are Funding our invasion and Demise. We have no business sticking our NEUTRAL Noses in anyone else's businesses, while funding this unlawful and unconstitutional WARS. Wer offically have an unlaful BUSHRACKRACY.

NOT I, I only buy oil from companies that sell American Petroleum I will not support the Moorislum invasion of the earth with my petrol dollars.

Get a list of gas stations that sell ONLY American oil and only buy from them.

End this BUSHRACKRA­CY and lets return to a LAWFUL REPUBLIC without Political Parties. Reject the Fake 13th Amendment and Recognize the ORIGINAL 13th AMENDMENT and End the unlawful Lawyers' Monopoly in DC.

We can't justify this illegal war. We talk about how MQ ia a blood thirsty murderer who kills his own people--PLEASE!!! He did not attack us, our allies, or his neighbors. He is more than happy to stay home and run his own little piece of the world, and in fact, he has been helping us round up Al Quaida in the North African region. How do we repay his cooperation and compliance? We kill his kids, destroy his cities, and encourage armed insurrection in his borders. It is not MQ that is acting in an evil way, it is US and NATO. America, with the highest prison population in the world. America, with the most people on death row in the world. America, with it's thousands living under bridges. America, with its schools producing nothing but sodomites and illiterate thugs. America, which exports weapons around the world to every 2 bit dictatorship who can suck a gallon of oil out of the ground. America who DAILY kills unarmed and innocent brown people in the middle east and SW asia. WE have no room to talk when it comes to his treatment of HIS OWN people, when we can't even deal with OUR OWN correctly. Liberals who hated GWB for his war, and rightly so, now support his majesty BO when he enters 2 more wars without even asking permission or trying to lie about it. MQ will live through this, and come out stronger with his people.

Libya was doing O.K. but its oil is coveted by France and U.K.and US companies. We have no idea who the Rebels are but the likelihood is that they will turn Libya into an Islamist state just as the invasion of Iraq has resulted in that country being controlled by Shia Islam mullahs. Women in Libya are currently not under the thumb of Islamist religious police as far as dress and daily life are concerned. They can drive cars and not wear veils but wear regular clothing like western women. That will change. The greed of the western powers is what is driving this UK, France and US war one sided war on Libya without which the country's civilians would not be suffering as much as they now are due to NATO bombing..

It doesn't matter to you that "Libya was doing OK" included rape, stealing from the people, or killing those who disagreed with anything Mr. Gadaffi dictated?

Then what about Jordan,Oman,Qutaar etc. Are they in it for the oil to? You people have to always spin everything that happens in the world into political party hatred crap or the US fighting for oil.

It's sad that anybody has to loose their family due to bombing even if it's Qaddafi's family. All the more reason for this madness to end as fast as possible.

If NATO and American hadn't interfered, either the rebels would have been wiped out or Gaddafi would have been wiped out, now its a bloody stalemate costing thousands of innocent lives and prolonging misery.

Then they will fall.

Europe and NATO need to understand than often the path to democracy is built from failure and disaster. We have to let these come to pass if only so that future Libyan rebels will become more united, more resolute and develop a better understanding of what they are fighting for and what they are fighting against and at what cost.

Human beings are very resilient and very capable creatures, no matter where they are and in the end if change is really in their hearts, it will manifest itself. Take any great freedom struggle - America, India, South Africa, Egypt, etc. Our problem is we underestimate the passion for freedom and capability from those we consider "down trodden" but in fact their strength and resilience will leave us in awe.

You are truly messed up in the head.......since Gadaffi's dictatorial games have been going on for years way before President Obama was even known. What would you say that Bin Laden had on President Obama? Do you remember the bombing of the Pan Am flight by Mr. Gadaffi and his friends? Was President Obama associated with American government then?
08:25 AM on 07/02/2011
All I ask is that Obama be honest in what he is doing. Is he trying to assassinate Gadhafi like he did Bin Laden? Or just mucking things up for some other half a...d reason?

You're a fool if you don't believe this president works for the Defense Industry just like all of his predecessors did. The only reason we are involved in any war, including this one, is for profit. Just like Afghanistan and Iraq.

Don't you people get it, Obama wants all the leaders to leave the Arab countries just so his buddies "the Muslim Brotherhood" can get in & take over. Obama wants Israel destroyed, has been his goal for years, he is using our tax dollars to make it happen. Look at the idiot Hillary & what she just said about accepting the Muslim Brotherhood. OUR COUNTRY & ISRAEL IS DOOMED IF OBAMA SUCCEEDS IN HIS MISSION. Don't misunderstand me Gaddafi is evil, but America had a contract with him which he did honor, to leave Israel alone etc. etc. Obama is the one that started this in the Arab countries with his "buddies" over there.

"According to the London Daily Telegraph of March 26, Darna (also transliterated as Derna or Darnah), a key city in the rebel heartland between Benghazi in Tobruk, is commanded by al-Hasidi, an al Qaeda terrorist controller who trained and hobnobbed with Osama bin Laden at the Khost terrorist training camp in Afghanistan.

Hasidi boasts of having sent 25 fighters to fight US and NATO forces in Afghanistan; one wonders how many they managed to kill. Hasidi was a US prisoner of war after being captured by the Pakistanis, but tells the Wall Street Journal of April 2 that he now hates the US only “less than 50%” hinting that Americans can redeem themselves by appeasing Al Qaeda with arms, money, political power, and diplomatic support.

At his side in the city leadership is Sufian bin Kumu, Osama bin Laden’s chauffeur, another terrorist who was an inmate at Guantánamo Bay for six years. Also among the Darna city fathers is al-Barrani, a devoted member of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, which merged with Al Qaeda in 2007.

This gaggle of fanatics, psychotics, and criminals is billed by the CIA media as an effective ruling elite for the future democratic governance of Libya. In reality, the Benghazi rebel council, heavily larded with al Qaeda terrorists, could only preside over the descent of the country into a chaos of tribalism, warlords, and criminal syndicates which would spell the end of civilization itself in the area."
