We will never surrender. This is our country. We are fighting here in Libya. The Libyan people, we never will be welcomed into NATO, never again will welcome the Americans here." Libya is not easy, 're Mickey Mouse.
Libya is not a piece of cake, "he said. Gaddafi's son also announced the return of Dutch soldiers captured in Libya. "We told them again no more without our permission. This is Libya, and we're still here. This is Libya, not the Netherlands," Islam Said said, adding that the soldiers will return home, but not the helicopter armed "which arrived in the country.
