Libyan government claims that allied bombardment had killed dozens of civilians.
Vice Adm. William E. Gortney said in a Washington news conference that the United States was not trying to kill the Libyan leader.
The American and French militaries both said that Qatar would join the military operation, which would be the first Arab military force to explicitly sign on.
Admiral Gortney said that allied strikes against Colonel Qaddafi’s forces had been very effective.
Saturday night’s strikes had done little to stop the Qaddafi forces from shelling the city and its port, blowing up two power stations. A rebel who said he was a doctor said seven had died and the city was without water or power.
Earlier Sunday, Colonel Qaddafi delivered a fresh and defiant tirade against the allied military action, pledging retaliation and saying his forces would fight a long war to victory.
TRIPOLI, Libya — American and European militaries intensified their barrage of Col.Muammar el-Qaddafi’s forces by air and sea on Sunday, as the mission moved beyond taking away his ability to use Libyan airspace, to obliterating his hold on the ground as well, allied officials said. /// World news
Rebel forces, battered and routed by loyalist fighters just the day before, began to regroup in the east as allied warplanes destroyed dozens of government armored vehicles near the rebel capital, Benghazi, leaving a field of burned wreckage along the coastal road to the city. By nightfall, the rebels had pressed almost 40 miles back west toward the strategic crossroads city of Ajdabiya, witnesses and rebel forces said. And they seemed to consolidate control of Benghazi despite heavy fighting there against loyalist forces on Saturday.
There was evidence, too, that the allies were striking more targets in and around Tripoli, the capital. More explosions could be seen or heard near the city center, where an international press corps was kept under tight security constraints. Recurring bursts of antiaircraft guns and a prolonged shower of tracers arced over the capital on Sunday night. /// World most serious news
A day after a summit meeting in Paris set the military operation in motion, a vital Arab participant in the agreement expressed unhappiness with the way the strikes were unfolding. The former chairman of the Arab League, Amr Moussa, told Egyptian state media that he was calling for an emergency league meeting to discuss the situation in the Arab world, and particularly Libya. // world serious news

If Gaddaif give up that can save alot of lifes and fix all the problems that he have coust Egypt so farr, or he can fight and still keep the lead as leader for Egypt. Gaddafi is killing people by holding on to the lead.
