    This is not good for the Colonel as the oil ports are the basis of his power.

    The Colonel may be invited to a Libyan version of a Texas Necktie Party, just like Saddam.

    Reuters and Sky news are reporting there are air strikes as well as coordinated armour and artillery assaults at Ras Lanuf. Rebels may have the guns but the Government forces have coordination. The best the rebels have I have seen so far is cell phones and a ready supply of meat shields.
