ALGERIA

In a new audio message carried by a loyalist TV channel, Moammar Gaddafi has said he is ready to fight a long guerrilla war. His messages were broadcast on the Syria-based al-Rai television.

Despite the rebels' continued advances, Gadhafi is still free and, despite his bravado, may be planning an escape from Libya.

On Thursday, U.S. Secretary of State Hilary Clinton said that Libya's interim government deserves a seat in the United Nations. But it is a premature statement.

Muammar Gaddafi, driven into hiding by his foes, on Thursday urged his supporters to fight on, even as Libya's new interim rulers met world leaders to discuss reshaping a nation torn by 42 years of one-man rule and six months of war.

The regime is dying, said rebel council spokesman Abdel-Hafiz Ghoga.

The NTC received a large boost on Thursday when Russia finally granted its recognition.

Two of Moammar Gadhafi's sons clashed on the airwaves Wednesday, with one offering peace and another promising a 'war of attrition' as a final battle for control of Libya's coast loomed.

Rebels have overrun the capital of Tripoli, as well as the many mansions and estates owned by the Gadhafi family. The Gadhafis have been driven away, some into hiding and some out of Libya, perhaps for good. But where exactly are Gadhafi's children now?

The Gadhafi motorcade arrived at the Algerian border on Saturday.

Diehard followers of Moammar Gadhafi are refusing to surrender, raising the prospect of new fighting in Libya when an ultimatum expires after this week's Eid holiday.

Libyan rebels are furious at Algeria for sheltering Gaddafi family members and they have demanded that the family be sent back. The wife of the fugitive Libyan leader, Moammar Gaddafi, three of his children and some of his grandchildren arrived in Algeria on Monday morning.

Hannibal Gadhafi and his wife Aline Skaf allegedly abused their Ethiopian nanny when she refused to physically punish the couple's son. The nanny was discovered by rebels in a beach-side estate in Tripoli.

For the third time, rebels claimed that Khamis Gadhafi has been killed. The two previous times, the 28-year-old Gadhafi appeared on state television shortly after.

Libya's rebel forces were pushing hard on Tuesday to take control over Muammar Gaddafi's hometown of Sirte, even as the fallen despot's family members fled to Algeria and one of the sons was reportedly killed and buried by the rebels near Tripoli.

Libya's new rulers accused Algeria of aggression Monday for admitting the fleeing wife of Moammar Gadhafi and three of his children, but the whereabouts of the former strongman himself remain a mystery a week after his overthrow.

As the endgame in the long-drawn Libyan struggle to break free from Moammar Gadhafi's 40-year regime played out, reports said Khamis, the despot's son who commanded the elite Khamis brigade, has been killed and buried near Tripoli, while Gaddafi's wife, two other sons and their families have crossed the border into Algeria.

Ibrahim said he was in Tripoli and had seen Gadhafi on Friday.

It is not clear if Moammar Gadhafi himself was part of the group or not.

Algeria's Foreign Ministry denied on Saturday a report that a convoy of six Mercedes cars had crossed its border from Libya.

A convoy of six Mercedes cars have crossed from Libya into Algeria, Egypt's state MENA news agency reported on Saturday, quoting a rebel source.

Jobs' biological father is a man named Abdulfattah Jandali, a Syrian who was a political science graduate student.
