"We have Plan A, Plan B, Plan C. Plan A is to live and die in Libya. Plan B is to live and die in Libya. Plan C is to live and die in Libya." - Saif Islam Qaddafi during interview

I called this Day 10 because the official kick off day was #Feb17 but the kickoff was 2 days early and today is in reality day 12.

Video evidence of clean ups: Gaddafi's men picking up dead bodies in #Tripoli

The world’s 100 largest arms dealers, excluding Chinese vendors, sold weapons for $401 billion in 2009, with US vendors remaining in first place

Threads for previous days are in my journal

To make sure the Army doesn't swing the revolution to the people, with the silent complicity of world leaders more concerned about the stability of oil prices than people's lives, Qaddafi has brought in more than 35,000 North African mercenaries specifically from Chad, Nigeria, Guinea and Darfur. There's a Facebook video of a captured mercenary from Chad (Youtube here). Captured mercenaries confessed they were paid between $12,000 - $30,000 each. Today pamphlet ads were found in Nigeria offering them $2000/day for their savage work.

Is Qaddafi the only one paying these mercenaries? Or are EU governments, with their long history of hiring mercenaries, chipping in? I demand to know.

9. U.N. council envoys clash on referring Libya to ICC
http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/02/26/us-libya-un-idUSTRE71P26Z20110226

(Reuters) - U.N. Security Council diplomats clashed on Saturday over a proposal to refer the deadly crackdown against anti-government demonstrators in Libya to the International Criminal Court, council envoys said.

While there was broad support for a draft resolution of sanctions to punish long-time Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi and others of the North African country's ruling elite for attacks that have killed thousands of civilians, countries appeared split over whether to refer the issue to the rarely-used war crimes court.

It was unclear whether the call for an immediate ICC referral would be cut to get unanimous agreement on the other draft's other punitive measures.

The 15-nation council has referred only one other case to the ICC -- the conflict in Sudan's western Darfur region. The court has indicted Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir for genocide and other crimes against humanity in Darfur.

Defecting Libyan tribes to defend oilfields-Quryna
Sat Feb 26, 2011 7:37pm GMT

RABAT Feb 26 (Reuters) - A group of tribes in Libya's Oases region have joined the revolt against leader Muammar Gaddafi and will defend the oil wells near the area, Quryna newspaper's online edition reported on Saturday.

A leader of one of those tribes last week threatened to cut off oil exports to Western countries if Libyan authorities continued to violently crush anti-Gaddafi protests.

Quryna said it had received a statement from three tribes in the Oases region (Wahat), south of Benghazi -- the flashpoint for the uprising -- that also urged the army and police officers from the region to join the "people's revolt".

It named the tribes as al-Zuwayya from Jikharra oasis, El-Mjabra from Jalu's oasis and al-Awajila from Awjila oasis.

Al-Azhar calls on the Libyan army to disobey Gaddafi's orders

Saturday, February 26, 2011, last update 18:40 (GMT +0400)


Sheikh Al-Azhar attack the Libyan regime

Cairo, Egypt (CNN) - considered the Imam of Al-Azhar in Egypt, Sheikh Ahmed Al-Tayeb, that the Libyan regime, led by leader Muammar Gaddafi, "lost all legitimacy" and now his time is the "rule of the usurper aggressor authoritarian people unfairly," and called for good - which is usually distancing himself from the political - military officers and soldiers to refuse orders Libyan protesters were killed.

...

He added: "Al-Azhar, and by virtue of its responsibility legitimacy, nationalism and humanity, calls on all Libyan officials and the Libyan Army officers and soldiers to refuse to obey the rules in shedding the blood of the Libyan people and regarding its integrity, and only become accomplices in the offense taken in the world and the Hereafter."

He also appealed to the good "Arabs and Muslims and honorable in all over the world to rise up to support the brotherly Libyan people to provide humanitarian support and medical and all the possible reasons for the victory and support."

Translation:

Our young brave rebels in Misurata have managed this morning to attack Hamza security Battalion and expelled them from its fortress place at the airbase/Air Academy/Air defence and the young brave rebels have managed to capture some of the mercenaries and some Libyan soldiers and with other officers they captured an officer with rank of Brigadier who is a close member of Col. Gaddafi and now you see the family book, passport and a number of ID cards and driving licence and Army ID and show his revolutionary ID card.

The card confirms he is a Brigadier and as I have stated before he is very close to Gaddaffi’s family (Goohisi). His wife’s picture is here but will not be shown out of respect in accordance to our Libyan and Muslim ethics. His wife’s name is Fat-Heya Muhammad Gidaf-dem. He is under arrest and treated with the utmost respect in accordance with our high morals as Libyan Muslims and the respect of the people of Misurata and we say this knowing very well that our brave unarmed rebels last night at their place had faced a dirty and scoundrel ambush and hunted them as they were defenceless and have captured one young man. This is a sample of what we have achieved for our great country and beloved Libya and to liberate Libya from the grip of the tyrant.

Our call is to the gaddafi tribe is to resolute to the logic and for the sake of stopping the bloodbath and stop assisting this dictator and his sons and disown him first and return to the bosom of Libya so that we can continue communicating and resolve all issues as we do not intend to retaliate or revenge, alternatively if our city is going to face another attack by any other security battalions/forces then we have no choice but return fire with an equal momentum and perhaps work something . If we can retain this officer (brig.) and faced the decision of sacrificing him then so be it (although we hope not to sacrifice him) if the circumstances lead to this.

We hope the intelligent people of Gaddafi family stop this crazy tyrant and we that they are the one who are capable of stopping him and side up and stand by the righteous side for the sake of Libya’s tomorrow and stop the bloodbath and start a new lease of life with us.
