Libya's embattled leader Colonel Muammar Gaddafi has said he has no intention of stepping down, declaring on state TV: "I will die here as a martyr."
He denounced thousands of protesters who have led days of anti-government demonstrations as "rats" and ordered army and police to crush the uprising.

Good riddance I say.
Yes, there will be blood...

What else would you want me to say? I can't do anything for the protesters, it's up to them. I wish them the best of luck but blood usually does spill if any change is to come about.

Always has been.
The Amazonian Guard is an elite group of 30-40 (reports differ) virginal women who are tasked with protecting the eccentric Muammar al-Gaddafi. Candidates for the Amazonian Guard undergo extensive firearms and martial arts training at a special academy and must be handpicked by Gaddafi, himself. Members of this elite group are allowed privileges not deemed acceptable in the Muslim world, such as dressing in western style fatigues and wearing makeup, western hair styles and high heels. The existence of this elite group has created controversy as it challenges the role of women in the Muslim world.
