Moamer Kadhafi set for battle


13:42 |

Moamer Kadhafi set for battle "Embattled leader Moamer Kadhafi offered to arm civilians to defeat a popular revolt that poses the worst threat to his four-decade rule.

The UN Security Council called a special session to consider a sanctions resolution against the Libyan leader on top of those from President Barack Obama and the European Union in a clear attempt to weaken his teetering regime.

The escalating revolt to overthrow Kadhafi, which a Libyan diplomat to the United Nations said has killed thousands, has seen opponents grab almost the entire east and loyalists embark on shooting sprees in the capital.

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi, whose country is the former colonial power in Libya, became the first Western leader to spell out that Kadhafi appeared to have lost control of the situation."
