£1m for Gaddafi 'dead or alive'
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/1m-for-gaddafi-dead-or-alive-2343032.html

A £1 million reward was offered today for the capture of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi as Foreign Secretary William Hague called on the Libyan dictator to recognise his 42-year rule was over and stand down his forces.

Mustafa Abdel Jalil, head of the Transitional National Council, said he supported the offer by Libyan businessmen for a reward of two million Libyan dinars to anyone handing over Gaddafi "dead or alive".

He also offered amnesty to "members of (Gaddafi's) close circle who kill him or capture him".

His comments came as some 35 journalists held at the Hotel Rixos in Tripoli were released by soldiers loyal to the 69-year-old dictator.

1. That worked so well w/bin Laden, but I wonder if Gaddafi's
loyalists are motivated by a sincere zeal, or by money. If money, look out, Mo!
