#Libya: Gaddafi 'running out of commanders': A Libyan colonel that defected to the rebel side last month has said...http://dlvr.it/bXtJj
Watching other news channels is a punishable offense." Some fighters are hardened regime loyalists, including men who left their posts in the Navy to come and fight for Gaddafi. But up to "80 per cent" would leave if they could, said the Colonel, who depended on the help of his fellow officers to escape. . "They told us we were fighting an invading force of Al Qaeda. A few months ago, they told us Osama Bin Laden had visited," said a captive member of Gaddafi's security brigades. "And on state television we saw that NATO was hitting the homes of innocent civilians. "When we realised we were battling Libyans, many of the boys said that because they were Muslims, was sinful to fight. A lot of the soldiers don't want to fight" said a captured Libyan soldier. "Many of the officers I was with got excited when they heard that the rebels had made progress. But it is hard to escape. If they think you might defect, they will execute you immediately," said the Colonel.
