Here We Go Again

A son of Muammar Gaddafi, previously reported captured, made a surprise appearance with jubilant supporters in Tripoli overnight, urging loyalists to fight off rebels who say they control most of the Libyan capital.

He’s captured: He’s not captured. That type of reporting propaganda is getting old. They wore it out in the Bush attack on Iraq.

"We're trying to figure out how he escaped," said one rebel, Muftah Ahmad Uthman. "You know the capital was captured really quickly. Many of the men in uniform are volunteers, and some of them make mistakes."

Mistakes. Letting the son of the tyrant you are trying to depose get away – a mistake.

Saif smiled, waved, shook hands with supporters and flashed victory signs.

"We broke the back of the rebels. It was a trap. We gave them a hard time, so we are winning," he said.

"Take up arms today," Saif told cheering supporters waiting to be given weapons. "Inshallah (God willing), we will attack the rats today."

....but hey, do what you want....you will anyway.
