We do not go Gadhafi says U.S.

United States clarified that the operation "Odyssey at dawn" is not intended to assassinate Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, as reported by the Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, and the director of the Joint Staff at the Pentagon, William Gortney. " It would be foolish to kill Gadhafi in the military operation against strategic targets in Libya.

I think it important that we operate under the mandate of Security Council resolution the United Nations. " When asked about the objectives of the offensive to head with the United Kingdom and France, Gates said: "If I started to add goals to generate another problem. I think it is foolish to set goals that do not know whether they can be reached.

" In the same vein, said the director of the Joint Staff at the Pentagon, William Gortney, who said that are not pursuing Gadhafi and his forces are increasingly isolated and confused. The Vice Admiral also found that the offensive launched by the Allies has been "very effective" and decreased "significantly" the Libyan regime's air capacity.

"Attacks against Gadhafi ground troops in the rebel stronghold of Benghazi has been rather successful, although the city is still susceptible to future attacks. " Gortney stressed that Spain, Denmark and Qatar have joined the operation to provide aircraft, and hoped that other countries do likewise.

The chief of U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, Mike Mullen, acknowledged in an interview with CBS that the operation "Odyssey of dawn can be concluded without the Libyan leader Muammar Gadhafi leaves office. "That is certainly, potentially, a possible result." "Over time, clearly, Col. Gadhafi will have to make some decisions.

Have to make some choices about their own future. " The statements of the three U.S. officials questioned yesterday when one of the bombing led by allies aimed at the Bab al Aziziyah building, a four-story complex located on the outskirts of Tripoli where he resides Moammar Gadhafi. "It was a bombing that could have affected hundreds of civilians gathered near the complex, "said the spokesman of the regime, Ibrahim Moussa.

Earlier, Foreign Secretary, Liam Fox, acknowledged that depending on how you spend the offensive, Gadhafi might be one of the targets of the missiles. Yesterday the three countries continued to bomb Libyan cities, including Tripoli and Sirte Ajdabiya, the birthplace of Colonel. In compliance with the call of the African Union and UN resolutions, the Libyan Armed Forces ordered a cease-fuegoportavoz Libyan Army.

Our views on the declaration of a ceasefire (of Libya) is, or is it a lie, or has violated the National Security inmediatamenteconsejero. rebel or more have died since raised against the regime of Moammar Gadhafi on 16 February, according to opposition spokesman, Abdel Hafiz Ghoga. The head of the Joint Staff at the Pentagon, William Gortney, said the military campaign is an "international effort" that aims to implement the resolution adopted last Thursday by the Security Council United Nations, which imposed an air exclusion zone on Libya.

The head of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff, Michael Mullen, said the goal is to Benghazi and protect civilians. "It's about reaching specific targets to stop killing his people and provide humanitarian aid possible." The Pentagon says that the success of the first two days of attacks is estimated that Libyan dictator's troops no longer move about the city of Benghazi.

Mullen stressed that the new goal will be to extend these combat patrols to Tripoli and prevent Gadhafi forces continue to attack innocent civilians. The Arab League chief, Amr Moussa, called an emergency meeting of the Group of 22 nations to discuss the situation in Libya, which he said, "has left many dead and wounded civilians." "What is happening in Libya is different from the purpose of imposing a no-fly zone, and what we want is the protection of civilians and bombing civilians on over." Moussa said it was not necessary any military operation and said that since beginning the block called for the imposition of a no-fly zone to protect civilians.

Pope Benedict XVI said he was concerned about the situation and called on those with political and military responsibility in Libya to ensure the integrity of the Libyans. Also asked to allow access to humanitarian relief. "I wish to inform the Libyan people I moved close, while I pray that a horizon of peace and harmony arises as soon as possible on Libya and the entire North African region." Mexico, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, urged the warring parties to fully respect international humanitarian law strictly prohibits attacks against civilians.

Also called the Libyan authorities "to immediately halt gross and massive violations of human rights of civilians."
