Libyan rebels claim control of most of Tripoli after advancing on the capitol Saturday night. After six months of fighting, The New York Times reports on the coordination between rebel forces and NATO in this campaign.

“NATO’s targeting grew increasingly precise, one senior NATO diplomat said, as the United States established around-the-clock surveillance over the dwindling areas that Libyan military forces still controlled … Britain, France and other nations deployed special forces on the ground inside Libya to help train and arm the rebels.”

Sky News’ Alex Crawford was on the ground with the rebels and reports on another group of Libyans supporting the rebel forces.

But embattled leader Col. Muammar Gaddafi wasn’t silent. The Telegraph has his audio address, where he says...
 

“To hellfire, what did you leave you traitors, you dirty people who made mosques filthy. You go into mosques and make calls (to fight from minarets) you sons of dogs.”

Col. Gaddafi wasn’t the only leader talking. In a public address, UK Prime Minister David Cameron said Gaddafi quote- “must stop fighting, without conditions.” According to the San Francisco Chronicle, U.S. President Barack Obama says the Libyan leader’s regime has already ended.
 

PRESIDENT OBAMA: “The momentum against the Qaddafi regime has reached a tipping point. … Muammar Qaddafi and his regime need to recognize that their rule has come to an end.”
 

But, as the Tripoli Post points out, Venezuelan President and Gaddafi-supporter, Hugo Chavez, saw the campaign differently -- calling  it an attempt to claim the country's oil resources.
 

HUGO CHAVEZ: “We are seeing images of the democratic governments of Europe, along with the supposedly democratic government of the United States destroying Tripoli with their bombs.”

Still, the street celebrations and the claims of fallen regime seem premature, says the Wall Street Journal, which notes -- the fighting is far from over.
 

“Early Monday…rebels beat a panicked retreat when word spread of a possible counterattack. That attack didn’t occur, but the city remained on edge as explosions echoed in the distance and rebels urged reporters not to linger at Green Square.”
