Report: Qaddafi Son Claims Dad Wants a Role in Rebel Government

Saadi says Muammar gave him official power to negotiate with rebels

Deposed despot Muammar Qaddafi wants a role in the Libyan government set up by the rebels who've taken control of Tripoli, Al Arabiya reports. Tweets, actually. "Saadi Qaddafi says his father seeks role in govt with rebels," the Saudi news channel says. Could Qaddafi be so delusional? Much of what's going on in Libya right now remains unclear. And even as Saadi told the channel he has "officially been given the power to negotiate with the forces fighting the former dictator for control of Libya," as Sky News reports, another Qaddafi son, Saif, released a video vowing to keep fighting the rebels.
