Former Official Murad Hemayma On Libya

[waitingforcorrection: invalid GUID, no audio] Over a hundred tomahawk missiles were fired into Libya over the weekend by U.S., British, and French coalition forces, taking out roads, tanks, air defenses, and even a building in Col. Moammar Gadhafi’s compound. Feelings on the attacks are mixed here in the U.S., with some lawmakers applauding the decision, while others were left appalled. Murad Hemayma, a former Libyan senior official who defected, and now resides in Cairo, welcomes the enforcement of a no-fly zone, and says it was the right solution by the U.N.
