Saif al-Islam has been arrested at least one Gaddafi will face a trial.

This just in.

NATO secretary-general Anders Fogh Rasmussen called on Sunday for a peaceful and immediate transition of power in Libya, saying the alliance was ready to work with rebels fighting Muammar Gaddafi to achieve that.

"NATO is ready to work with the Libyan people and with the (rebel) Transitional National Council, which holds a great responsibility," Rasmussen said in a statement.

"They must make sure that the transition is smooth and inclusive, that the country stays united, and that the future is founded on reconciliation and respect for human rights."

He added NATO would continue to monitor military facilities in Libya to ensure civilians were not under threat.

BREAKING NEWS-Al Jazeera's Zeina Khodr is one kilometre from the Green Square in the centre of Tripoli. She says she can't get closer because of clashes and gunfire.

"There are a lot of snipers in the area... the are other areas in the capital under rebel control... lots of celebratory gunfire."

I love it when a plan falls together.

I hope gadaffi does not have anything dangerous under his sleeve theres nothing scarier then a cornered man

Muammar Gaddafi makes rallying call to his supporters to come out and fight rebels on the streets of Tripoli.

You, you leave your houses and carry out your duty. Dead or alive, come on, go to Tripoli, from within and from outside." The women who trained to use weapons should go out and use their weapons.

You are all armed in Tripoli so there is no excuse, get out.

The agents of colonialism consist of only small groups.

How can you allow the city of Tripoli, Libya's capital, to sit under colonialism once again after the (1969 coup) revolution and freedom?

How can the armed people allow a group of mercenaries, traitors and rats to open the way for colonialism in the city of Tripoli? This is rejected, it's a dangerous thing.

If Tripoli burns and becomes like Baghdad, what good will that do, why? How can we allow Tripoli, which was safe and beautiful, to become a stage for military operations

Gaddafi might end up like Mussolini and get hanged from a lamppost if the rebels catch him.

Oh god i hope so.

Don't get your hopes up, we may vary well be looking at the birth of an Islamic Republic or some other despotism.

green square under rebel control, rebels saying the city is now under their full control

The zero hour has begun, my friends.

"There's a party in the Libyan capital tonight. The people are in charge of the city. They've decided the square is now called Martyr's Square, the original name/.

"They're shouting "we're free" and shooting at a poster of Gaddafi."

Wonderful..........

IS there any news on Gaddafi yet?

None.

Well, the fight in Tripoli continues. And it´s surelly being bloody.

It´s a Battle of Berlin, 2011 version.

Actually there was almost no fighting in the attack on the city, the only people claiming heavy casualties are the Ghadaffy spokespeople.

Also, ChefLegel will be a show on food channel in a few years about russo-soviet cuisine

North Korean cuisine would be funnier. Today we have 3 grains of rice.

No right now it's three blades of grass.
