gtjunur on 08 Sep 11It's interesting to hear all the rumors surrounding escapes of Gaddafi's forces. There seems to be a large span between the rumors of three vehicles in a convoy, to two hundred vehicles including Gaddafi himself. It would be interesting to hear Niger's perspective on the escapees and why they are being allowed to cross the border.
