Eighty minutes. C'estle time it took to Muammar Gaddafi to repeat the night of Friday to Saturday, he would not give up power and to call France and the United States to negotiate with it a crisis. Unlike the very violent speech of 22 February in which he described the rebels as "rats" and promised to clean Libya "house by house," Gadhafi was content to urge the rebels to disarm, arguing that the Libyans do should not fight against each other.
"We can not fight against each other, we are a family," he said. According to state television, the NATO planes bombed a site near the building housing the headquarters of state television in Tripoli, Moammar Gadhafi when delivering his speech. Friday night, the Libyan government announced it was offering an amnesty to the rebels if they laid down their arms Misrata by next Tuesday, adding that he controlled the seaport of the country's third city.
The takeover of port by the forces of Misrata Gaddafi has not been confirmed by NATO. The Transitional National Council, political arm of the Libyan rebels, rejected on Saturday, calling Muammar Gaddafi. "The time for compromise is past," said Abdel Hafiz Ghoga, spokeswoman of the NCL. "The people of Libya can not consider or accept Libya where Qaddafi's regime plays a role," he added.
NATO has also declined the offer of cease-fire and negotiations Muammar Gaddafi, adding that the airstrikes on Libyan government forces would continue as civilians would be threatened. "We need deeds, not words," said an official of the Atlantic Alliance. Repeating that the Libyans "love," Gaddafi said he was for them "more sacred than the Emperor of Japan was for his people." "I'm sacred to the Libyan people, I am a symbol and a father to them," he said.
"We are ready to negotiate with France and the United States but without conditions," he told the Libyan leader. "We are not going to give but I'm calling to negotiate. If you want oil, we'll contract with your company, it is not worth fighting a war," he said. "We can solve our problems without fighting between Libyans, remove your fleet and your planes," he told the Libyan leader to address NATO.
He also said that the rebels who are fighting against its forces "are terrorists who are not Libya, but from Algeria, Egypt, Tunisia and Afghanistan." "We will confront children, women and old men, but without weapons," he said.
