Libyan Dictator continues to blame foreigners and al-Qaeda for the unrest that is threatening his 41-year rule fearing that the end result will be similar to that if Egypt or Tunisia.
As more cities fall into the hands of the pro-democracy protesters, Muammar Gaddafi, the Libyan Dictator, is hanging on to the capital where security forces loyal to him seem to have a firm hold, even amid reports of sporadic gunfire.
On Sunday, protesters had taken control of the city of Zawiyah, 50km from Tripoli, further shrinking the control of Gaddafi's government after the opposition took over most of the eastern part of the country. However, tanks were surrounding Zawiyahand locals feared an imminent raid by pro-Gaddafi forces.An AFP reporter arriving in Nalut, 24km west of Tripoli, found that Gaddafi's security forces had entirely disappeared from the streets.
"The towns of Rhibat, Kabaw, Jado, Rogban, Zentan, Yefren, Kekla, Gherien and Hawamed have also been free for days. In all these towns, Gaddafi's forces have gone and a revolutionary committee put in place," Shaban Abu Sitta, a lawyer and member of a local committee, said.
"We have placed ourselves under the authority of the interim government in Benghazi," he explained, referring to the opposition council formed by former justice minister Mustafa Abdel Jalil in the east of the country.
Most political analysis says that he might flee to a country where his fellow dictators are their like Hugoe Chavez, Percy Mahinda & Mugabe
United Nations Security Council also voted for tough restrictions on and possible war crimes charges against the Libyan Dictator for killing of unarmed protesters .
