Gaddafi holds Tripoli

The New York Times: Reports that Colonel Gaddafi still holds the Libyan Capitol of Tripoli, he has sent out his supporters and mercenaries to kill the opposition. It looks like that Libya will be broken up, with some areas under the control of Colonel Gaddafi while others under the control of the protesters. The question is what will the international community do about such a development, the UN has been full of hot air, the Obama Administration with the exception of Secretary Clinton has been weak to the point that it makes Jimmy Carer look good, what is POTUS waiting for, this kind of weakness by President Obama will make Iran feel that it has a free hand in the Middle East, in other words they will go for the bomb as they see Obama as weak. The effect of Egypt and Libya might be to make Iran a Super Power in the region.
