Gadhafi Supporter Reacts to Events in Libya

The Takeaway

The U.S., British, and French coalition fired targeted major cities in Libya in an effort to enforce the U.N.-mandated no-fly zone and derail Gadhafi’s deadly attacks on rebel forces. The BBC’s Allan Little reports from Tripoli on escalating violence. Meanwhile, Col. Gadhafi still has supporters. Sami Alii, is a civil engineer living in near Tripoli and a Gadhafi supporter. He has a very different perspective on the rebel uprising and international intervention in his country.
