and invading khadafi look we didn't need to invade eastern europe to have eastern europe fall what we needed to do was to be very confident about our democratic ideals and our democratic values and to demonstrate that they also represent the strength of our society after nine hundred ninety when the soviet union fell i was following very closely all the press in the middle east and i read article after article in egypt even among palestinians who were saying that one of the reasons why israel and the united states were one so many times was because they were free and they were asking themselves why not us and if you ask i think the most important period where we dropped the ball i really do believe it's from about one thousand nine hundred ninety to about one nine hundred ninety five when we really had a chance to champion the idea of democracy especially in some of our allies like egypt it would not have been seen. as a slam to american power it would have been seen as an extension of american values after having won the cold war and yes even the palestinians many palestinians were w

research associate from the center of research on globalization says khadafi is clinging to power and trying to rally support across this country. it's too soon to say from what i've heard from libya from my sources there. to death he had a meeting with three of the major tribes in the south he's made them promises i'm sure lucrative promises and he's also promised democracy much like what barak. has promised democratic reform and these tribes seem to be siding with him right now those are three out of five tribes that are known right now to be one colonel gadhafi site. in regards to his time being up well matthew the deputy chief of staff of the armed forces libya. he made statements that sounded like he defected earlier but he's also said that it's against a civil war and possible international intervention and american influence that his country he's actually stopped the people in his city from going to tripoli and that his city is forty kilometers from the libyan town. but will he stop them so it's too soon to say whether gadhafi will leave immediately but i think in the long term

there are talks of sanctions and a freeze of colonel khadafy's assets, but it would not amount to much. when you have the situation moving so quickly on the ground, it is difficult to see how that would change colonel gaddafi's actions. i think the administration realizes that the key thing at the moment, and the reason they're not being so specific is they're trying to get their own citizens out. there are still 5000 americans there and they are deeply concerned if they were to announce tougher action that could turn them into targets. >> many people thought that president obama would mention colonel gaddafi by name. is it significant that he did not? >> i think that is something that protestors and colonel gaddafi, his supporters, will have noticed. yes, what the obama administration condemned what is happening, sing it is unacceptable, calling it outrageous, with the lack of any specific action and the lack of mention of colonel gaddafi himself, it could be that it gives them some breathing space for colonel gaddafi. the events are moving incredibly quickly, but what is clear is it

crosstalk rules anderson if i can go to you first an interesting comment when we had the libyan leader khadafi to visit europe he went to italy on a two day visit and he's quoted in saying islam should become the religion of the whole of europe well not might happen one day but it won't be because of muslim muslim immigration is because of the secularization of a good parts of europe. yeah yeah but i also believe that we the europe and also russia is going to be muslim if we don't do anything to stop it these numbers also show it even saying these numbers is too low because in denmark they talk about two hundred twenty seven thousand muslims now we haven't heard this these numbers for the last fifteen years so i don't understand it and even then you statistic they don't make statistic after religion so i don't understand how they can get these numbers that's another thing well if i go to elizabeth in brussels i rely quite a bit on the pew research i found to be very good and reliable over the years and they estimate that as of two thousand and ten the report just came out only six percent of e

i five agent says some western countries are exploiting look writ of relationships with libya as khadafi vows to fight till the end. it's just a very talented of the regime that's been in place and the fact that the west has been cozying up to gadhafi ever since two thousand and three when he came in from the cold and became our new ally in the war against terror means that he's of course very tooled up with lots of new weapons which have been supplied by countries like france in the netherlands and the u.k. so he's in a very strong position and also very strong position financially to fight back and i think perhaps that some of his new friends in the west are a little confused on how to respond to what to do about him he had come in from the cold he was the sort of poster boy of being a poster dictatorship of course after what happened to saddam hussein he did offer up what little technology had which might mean taking him towards a situation where he had weapons of mass destruction and then of course he was welcome back into the international fold with with open arms and has been allow
