Gadhafi's Forces Overcome Rebel Defenses in Town Near Capital

In Tripoli, Libya, Moammarr Gadhafi loyalists tightened in on security in the city closest to Tripoli. The rebel forces have captured a key oil port. The fighting in Libya is now turning into a Civil War. The fighting could last for months since neither side has enough power to defeat the other. The government is doing everything that they can to protect Tripoli and it's surrounding areas but the rebels continue to push. Thanks to Gadhafi, hundreds more have been found dead as they continue to count. The pressure is on for other nations to help stop the riots. President Obama continues to insist that Gadhafi leaves and that they are considering many options like a "no-fly" zone over Libya.
