BREAKING : from a libyan diplomat in beijing

just in

Diplomat representing #Libya in Beijing, China just declared on #Aljazeera that he quits post & supports revolution

source

and also this

Al Jazeera: Hussein Sadeq Al Misurati, Libyan Diplomat in Beijing: There is news that Al Moatassim had fired gun shots at Saif Al Islam

source

and also said that Gaddafi has fled to Venezuela , i heard him say that just now.

im waiting for confirmation

I doubt Gaddafi had fled anywhere yet, but I could be wrong. Why would an ambassador to/in China quit? Couldn't he have remained in his job and done more good? Sounds a bit hokey to me.

i was thinking the same thing..this story does not ring right with me either
sec line

Great news it seems like the whole country is turning against Gaddafi now.

I heard on the news earlier that members of the army declared themselves defectors and liberated Benghazi. Now senior diplomats are turning on the tyrant surely his days are numbered.

actually i heard him with my own ears some 20 minutes ago on al jazeera but i had to start my PC and while on the net found that huffington post beat me to it

They had him on from Beijing? I guess my question still remains. Couldn't he have stayed and done more good? Why quit?

these dictators seem to be getting pushed out of business rather easily dont they?
or is it just me that feels this

That is a very good observation. Qaddafi will probably be a bit more stubborn than most? He's certainly being more ruthless.

that is true , and also just heard that they captured some 30 Mercenaries from Tchad and Nigeria.

I'm actually surprised he has lasted this long. The interesting thing will be if the US assists there rogue agent in his escape or not. I am curious to find out whether they leave him to fend for himself or offer him some much needed asylum.

Yes, way to easy, something is fishy.

I too doubt that Gaddafi has fled to Venezuela; however, if he did, then that is one flight that will never reach it's destination.

Yeah, a coma at the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean. Gaddafi is the proverbial "turd" that nobody (especially the U.S.) wants to see resurface in another "punchbowl".

I have a bunch on Libya and the time line of news stories here if you're interested. Just stuff since Friday. www.abovetopsecret.com...

Libya is in NAM so Venezuela's not out of the question...it's just a matter of when. And I'd agree his flight might not make it.

When select squads of government forces are ordered to fire on the population, then impede medical assistance the main military forces do get annoyed, especially when there are close relations involved. I am not aware of any family links that may or may not have happened but any leader that gets on the wrong side of its military ain't going to be sticking around. It is one possible explanation for the fast exit, the story in Egypt shows how this game plays out.
