however, another son of gadhafi, saif al- islam, said through an audio statement broadcast on a syrian -owned satellite channel... that no one is going to surrender and over twenty- thousand pro-gadhafi defenders are ready to fight the rebels. english "well, it's not surprising now that the remnants of the gadhafi regime are in a confused state and are giving out different messages. and so, yes, we have heard from different gadhafi sons, through the media, over the last 24 hours: messages of surrender, messages of defiance." while rebels flatly dismissed the remarks by ghaddafi's sons,... the two conflicting messages show that the failing regime is running out of time. park ji-won, arirang news. in this installment in our series on social enterprises, we visit a company that employs ethnic koreans in russia's far east. these korean people were rounded up and exiled by the soviets during world war two and in the 1990's had to flee again and start from scratch. our kim yeon-ji explains how the company, called baridream,... is helping them rebuild their lives. the social enterprise baridr

one of gadhafi's son saif al islam claims sirte is being defended by 20,000 gadhafi supporters. is it a bluff in the transitional leaders are hoping to avoid bloodshed there. let's go to cnn's senior international correspondent nic robertson in the capital city of tripoli. nic, gadhafi has all but been written off there, but keeping in mind saddam hussein what, we saw in iraq, can gadhafi cause the kind of trouble, you know, fighting month to month, town to town like he's threatening today? >> reporter: it seems to be a lot of rhetoric and a lot of bluff. yesterday saif al islam in a speech about this time said that this is the moment to attack, attack, attack and then nothing happened. there was no big attack from the gadhafi loyalists. so if the audience he's speaking to doesn't seem to be acting on his words. however, what's interesting is the former foreign minister here turned himself in to the national transitional council overnight, and he has told them that he believes, and this former foreign minister was living here in the city and called two national transitional coun

say, and this is very significant, he clearly has differences with his father and his brother saif al islam. there's clearly divisions emerging in this family. he said he is neutral, he's neither in the rebel camp nor his father's camp and is merely trying to negotiate a cease-fire. the divisions are significant. because until now, gadhafi's family have been the power brokers, the main people that have run the country. they've stuck together and now that cohesion is falling apart. >> nic, as you well know, the rebels have set a saturday deadline for gadhafi to surrender and now this development. how do you see things playing in and out libya over the next few days? >> reporter: they even talked about extending that cease-fire, there had been some discussion about it, certainly from political leaders. there was one senior military commander on the rebel side told me owe wasn't comfortable with that extension that the political leaders had given, this extension of another week, until next weekend. it seems that the military commanders have the initiative right now. and it does seem that they

let's also keep in mind that in the past rebel officials have put out reports, for instance, that saif al islamhafi had been captured, it turned out not to be true, it may be part of an an effort to undermine the areas of the country that remain loyal to moammar gadhafi. outside of bani walid, they are trying to work their way, the rebels are trying to convince the local inhabitants to trust them to allow them to go in. there are battles outside the town of sirte along the coast, the hometown of moammar gadhafi, so there is sort of an attempt to undermine the resolve of those parts of the country that until now have resisted the rebel rebel rebels' advances, john? >> and some hoped there might be a negotiated settlement between the rebels and what's left of the regime forces and loyalists, but you were part of covering those talks today, and things didn't go as planned, right? >> reporter: they certainly did not. in fact, ntc officials tell us that they were up all night last night with the elders from bani walid trying to give them these assurances that there would be no retribution, no reveng

but in a separate call, another son, saif al islam, once heir apparent, says he and his father will fight is good. we are in libya. we are fighting, he said. >> the fact he sent his wife and three of his children to algeria tells me now he appreciates that there is no return to the past. the gadhafi rule is over. the gadhafi dynasty is over. >> reporter: where could gadhafi be? he might be holed up in tripoli, a city of two million. or in his hometown of sirte. another possibility, another gadhafi tribal stronghold. analysts suggest more likely, it's that gadhafi has fled to central or southern libya. it has pockets of loyalists and is difficult terrain. few roads, vast deserts, oasis, caves and canyons. the region is also closer to the borders of algeria, niger, chad and sudan, giving gadhafi more options to escape the country. rebels say if gadhafi is caught he will be executed by a firing squad. >> richard engel reporting. secretary of state hillary clinton says the u.s. will release more than $700 million of the more than $1.5 billion in unfrozen funds. >>> thanks for joining us. i'm

people who were around him have left and certainly, we know we're outside this town, we were told saif al islame son of moammar gadhafi, was here but apparently he has left. it does appear that gradually many top leaders of the country are on their way out, not surprisingly. >> ben, are the rebels happy that they are leaving to get rid of them, or are they actually trying to stop them, arrest these people and eventually bring them to justice? >> reporter: certainly they are eager to get their hands on all of these people, particularly moammar gadhafi but also many of his top aides. they want to take them to justice. some of them say they want to give them over to the international criminal court, although speaking to some of the guys here, some of the gunmen, they are more interested in a swifter form of justice. i asked one of the fighters, he pulled out his bayonet and pulled it across his throat and said that's what we want to do to gadhafi if we find him. a bit of rough justice may be in the works here. >> explains why we're not seeing gadhafi anywhere. libya's national transitional council
