Libyan rebels are criticizing the NATO force for what they say has been a failed attempt to stop attacks by Gaddafi regime forces. The head of the rebel forces, Abdel Fattah Younes, said NATO has been to slow to prevent Gaddafi’s advance on the town of Misurata.

Abdel Fattah Younes: “Children are dying every day, men and women are dying every day, because of this bombing. If NATO waited for another week, Misurata would have been finished, and there would be no civilians. It’s people who are dying, and the international community would bear the responsibility of such a crime. Who is NATO? What are they doing? The United Nations has imposed NATO on our heads, but they haven’t done anything.”
