No more Moammar? Don't count Gadhafi out yet: "NATO-backed Libyan rebels are showing signs of serious fracture, punctuated by their indiscriminate killing of civilians, and they now face a challenge from the Warfalla and other pro-government tribes who could turn the tide in favor of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, according to Joseph Farah's G2 Bulletin.
The development could prompt a reconsideration by the Western alliance of what should be accomplished in strife-torn Libya.
Two U.S. sources currently in Tripoli told G2Bulletin that Deputy Foreign Minister Khaled Kaim, who is part of the embattled Gadhafi regime, told them that the Warfalla tribe – one of the largest in Libya – is being joined by other tribes to fight the rebels because of what is described as indiscriminate killing of civilians by Western alliance-backed troops.
The sources said that Qatari troops, tanks and helicopters 'are openly killing these unarmed tribal members. They have their Qatari tanks in the streets of Benghazi. They are actively shooting on unarmed civilians.'"
