"Interpol issued "RED notice" for (Julian) Assange...but issues lower "ORANGE notice" for Ghadafhi"
Interpol has issued an alert, called an "orange notice," for Gadhafi as well as 15 other Libyans, including some family members and other associates.
So what does this mean?
Interpol issues seven different kinds of notices: red, black, yellow, blue, green and orange, plus a "United Nations special notice." Each notice has a different objective. The orange notice, which is relevant to Gadhafi, is intended "[t]o warn police, public entities and other international organizations about potential threats from disguised weapons, parcel bombs and other dangerous materials."

Fresh protests hit Libyan capital
At least 1,000 people protesting against the rule of Muammar Gaddafi have taken to the streets of Tripoli, the Libyan capital, raising fears of fresh conflict between anti-government protesters and loyalist forces.
Protests called by the opposition began on Friday when worshippers streamed out of a mosque in the centre of the city, chanting "Gaddaf is the enemy of God", witnesses said.

Video - I don't have a problem with Saif #Gaddafi lying, he'll soon get his. I'm just terribly offended because he has the word "Islam" in his name.
Video - Anita McNaught interviews Gaddafi's Saif al-Islam interview at 15:30 GMT on Friday
One of Muammar Gaddafi's sons, Saif al Islam, has been the public face of the Libyan regime since the unrest began.
He has accused the international media, including Al Jazeera, of blowing the crisis out of proportion. In an interview with Anita McNaught, he repeated the allegation claiming the West was trying to take over Libya's oil.
Is Saif loosing it? Fascinating interview on AJEnglish but I'm baffled by him; by the fence sitting West still hedging bets.
