United States assesses the possibility of arming the rebels in Libya

Arming the rebels is one of several options that the U.S. is considering to Libya, said Monday the White House. The White House spokesman, Jay Carney stressed that Washington was moving quickly to assess the options, but the United States did not want to anticipate events. "The option of providing military aid is on the table because they have not taken out options on the table," said Carney.

The White House rejected the use of ground troops of the United States to respond to bloodshed in Libya, but said that option was not in the top of the list of possibilities.
