[QUOTE]Originally posted by tigerlily_misr: [QB] [b]White House Seeks Exile Spot for Qaddafi [/b] Even though there are no signs that Muammar Qaddafi is ready to leave power, or that there is a rebel leader who can be a credible successor, the Obama administration and its allies are quietly looking around for a place where the Libyan leader can live out his sunset years. The whole effort is made more complicated by his likely indictment by the International Criminal Court in the Hague for the bombing of PanAm Flight 103 in 1998, as well as human rights violations inside Libya, reports the New York Times. Officials are looking at the possibility of finding a country that has not signed the Rome Statute forcing nations to abide by the international court's rulings. That won't be as hard as it sounds since around half of the African countries have not signed the treaty, which the United States has also refused to do. The search is part of a White House effort to push for regime change without putting boots on the ground. Separately, the NYT also reports that rebels say they are receiving arms from abroad. Even though Qatar has publicly said it would be willing to arm rebels, the fighters refuse to confirm where the weapons are coming from or give details about when or how they might have arrived. On Thursday though, the emir of Qatar told CNN "that deliveries of antitank weapons might have already reached them." http://slatest.slate.com/id/2291484/ Can't see that Gaddafi will voluntarily leave his home anytime soon or infact ever.
