Jordan joins the military mission against Gaddafi

On Monday a Jordanian plane loaded with aid for the people of eastern Libya, landed in Benghazi. As was learned this morning, was escorted by fighter Jordanian Air Force, deployed in a European base. Jordan follows in the footsteps of Qatar and became the second Arab country that joins the military mission on Gaddafi.

French sources claim that at an air base on the island of Sardinia have also reached aircraft of the United Arab Emirates. This reinforcement Arabic falls as rain in May on the NATO mission, most answered in Benghazi. The rebel military chief, Abdel Fatah Yunis, has criticized NATO for not doing enough.

The war front, stuck in the oil city of Brega, is an example, in his view, the ineffectiveness of Allied planes. Misrata, in his opinion, can not withstand more than a week. NATO pilots have increasing difficulty in distinguishing who is who in the battlefield. The gadafistas have parked the tanks and have the guns mounted on pick-up vans similar to those of the rebels.

NATO also insists his priority is not the front of Brega, where civilians two weeks ago that has sought refuge in other places, but the besieged city of Misrata, which may have been killed over a thousand people. The Alliance also insists that Libya missions have not stopped and this morning has given the figure of 154 missions on Tuesday.

In these missions, 58 were to attack, especially against forces loyal to Colonel Qaddafi on the outskirts of Misrata. Either way, the truth, on the ground, is that the besieged maintained gadafistas Misrata and have a great advantage of fire in Brega. Perhaps the warmth of the NATO attacks against Gaddafi is due to the lack of confidence that the U.S.

has in the rebel government. A Benghazi has reached a White House envoy to try to find out who is in charge of the revolution. The National Transitional Council, the main rebel body has received recognition from France, Italy and Qatar. EE. UU. says it still does not have enough information to take this step.

The rebels, through the mediation of Qatar, were about to meet a priority. A super tanker with a capacity of one million barrels docked yesterday at the Marsa al Hariga terminal near the port of Tobruq. This shipment, if you can finally leave will be a major economic boost for the revolution that not only will ensure public sector wages, but you can buy weapons, as long as the Allies turn a blind eye to the UN resolution, has imposed an embargo on all Libya, including the rebel zone.
