"We will never accept any foreign intervention and any foreigners who try to do so will face the same fate as Gaddafi's mercenaries."
They are the words of Libya's interim government head Mustafa Abdul Jalil.
So should the world respect his wishes? Well, you have quite a bit to say about it.
Some of you ask for a no-fly zone, which is, a form of intervention.

'The US should continue it's moral support of the Libyan people and should impose a no fly zone over Libya (to protect the people as well as the oil installations that may be bombed).'
Paramza Hamza in Ghana on Facebook - of course Gaddafi is right there there is no street protest in Libya. What is happening in Libya is rebellion which he is quelling anyway. The good people of Libya and Africa are behind him.

The world should be standing ready to act, as soon as requested by the Lybian people. Too many times the world has been unwilling to act and we are dealing with this inaction 63 years on in one case. Mo. Edinburgh

Jeremy Bowen explains what he heard in his interview with Gaddafi, at a seafood restaurant in Tripoli. He said "no true Libyans" supported the protests, and that hallucinogenic drugs were being supplied to the protesters by al Qaeda.
