A real sense of family loyalty in this regime. so his inner core really will rise or fall with qaddafi. so there is people who have been around him now for decades. >> there is no indication publicly at the moment what targets their there could be and whats being called a new round of strikes at the moment as steve has indicated. you can hear the antiaircraft defenses going off in the dark in the evening in tripoli at the moment where it is just past 9:30 p.m. at night. any indication from your ...

Is there an indication that qaddafis forces will be sufficiently degraded so he will not be able to continue any attacks? >> i think certainly for qaddafis forces to take action in the east will be very problematic as you say, stretched out along the highway. those tanks and armored personnel carriers will be defenseless against air strikes and also his own air force will not be able to fly. so, controlling the east, it might already be too late for qaddafis forces. they are on the outskirts of ...

Third shooting war. and i think that president obama wants to be extremely careful so that america doesnt become the kind of target, the reason, the crusader for this absolutely on purpose. >> bill, lets talk about the mission. you just heard earlier in the show admiral mullen say his orders are clear. protect the civilians. dont overthrow qaddafi. thats not the point is that a mistake? can we live with qaddafi in any sort of power? he can create a lot of trouble. >> no. we cannot leave qaddafi ...

To the russians and chinese, that would be a huge mistake. im glad we have international support but i dont want the model to be that you have to go to the u.n. to deal with tyranny because russia and china are going to be less than friendly getting rid of dictators because in many ways they are countries run by dictators. >> chris: senator reid should the president get permission from congress. >> -- i think he will know the powers that gives us the opportunity to review what he has done. like ...

If we dont get rid of him we will pay a heavy price down the road. the obama administration owns libya with qaddafi. get rid of this man. dont be uncertain in your statements. be bold, be effective, work with the international community. replace this international outlaw sooner, rather than later. >> chris: let me take to you a couple of quick issues and i will ask you both to be brief about it. senator gram, president obama went to the u.n. security council to get approval authorization for thi...

Robust operations to protect the people of libya, there is the possibility of, i think, expanding this operation, not with u.s. forces but, frankly, with other forces like the french, the british, the qatarys. that, i think, will send a strong signal to qaddafi that his days should be limited. we have to consider not the u.s. but internationally some type of stabilization force. thats the most significant step, i think, going forward. but the flexibility of the u.n. resolution gives the united n...

Tenable. then you have international mechanism, a special envoy for the u.n. who can move in and begin to start the negotiations, hopefully that will eject qaddafi from power but also coordinate with the elements in opposition and try to develop a stable government. >> chris: were running out of time. i want to talk about a couple of other things. let me get to this senator graham. do you think you can negotiate muammar qaddafi out of power. >> no. i think he should be branded for what he is. i ...

Government in yemen on friday. yes. you each have 30 seconds. senator graham, should would he be intervening in those countries. they are our allies, but should would he be intervening. >> we should push back against using live ammunition against people who are protesting. this whole tee -- deterioration in the middle east is because of indecisive leadership. they do not believe there is a downside of shooting their own people because we let qaddafi come back and get stronger not weaker. if we d...

Mobile air defenses at this point tied to the position of his troops. so we continue -- we will continue to carry out the mission until directed otherwise. and i have just received no other direction. >> chris: but do you have any understanding or reaction to what the russians are calling for? >> actually i dont at this particular point. >> chris: when you mentioned a number of countries that are going to be involved in operational sense, when will we see the arab nations join the fight? >> actu...

Destroyed a platoon of tanks on the eastern edge of benghazi. and there is already reports of people who had fled benghazi heading back towards that city. and some instances of rebel fighters who were in benghazi now taking the road back to the west towards the capital. so it looks like the main center for rebels in benghazi has gotten already a sense of relief, a breather from the assault by qaddafis forces. some of qaddafis tanks destroyed outside that city and already a sense that people are ...
