Q: To all outward appearances, this is a city deeply enamored of Libyan leader Moammar Gaddafi. His portrait hangs from lampposts, adorns shopping centers and sprouts from the gleaming new office blocks rising from the seafront. Sayings from his Green Book, required reading for all schoolchildren, are posted in government buildings, including public restrooms. 
  
 And his supporters, draped in Gaddafi green and clutching pictures of their beloved leader, noisily and passionately assert their presence in near round-the-clock displays of devotion. Hurtling through the streets in pickups or gathering in Tripoli’s central Green Square, they bellow the rhythmic chant that encapsulates the omnipotence of Gaddafi’s self-ascribed role: “God, Moammar, Libya: Enough!” 
  
 How deep that support runs in a populace that has been governed by fear for decades is impossible to tell. But six days into the allied bombardment of Libyan military targets, it is clear that Gaddafi can count on the fierce loyalties of at least a significant segment of the population in the vast stretches that lie beyond the enclave of rebel-held territory in the east. 
  
 “We don’t want anyone except him,” gushed Fatima al-Mishai, 20, who joined the crowds assembled at Gaddafi’s Bab al-Aziziyah compound to offer their services as voluntary human shields against the bombs. “He gave us freedom and everything we need.” 
  
 Indeed, the Libyan government has kept average incomes relatively high, while doling out generous social benefits, including health care and education. Even Gaddafi’s opponents, who dare murmur their dissent only out of earshot of regime loyalists, concede that the man who has governed Libya for nearly 42 years does command genuine support. 
  
 “Seventy-five percent of the people are against him,” said one dissident, who was in the vanguard of the protest movement that was crushed in Tripoli last month and who agreed to a furtive meeting with journalists in a downtown cafe. “But there are some people who really do love him. They’ve known no one else all their lives. They think he’s in their blood.” 
  
 That a man who boasts he lives in a tent and whom Ronald Reagan once dubbed “the mad dog of the Middle East” still commands devotion four decades into his rule is one of the enduring mysteries of this idiosyncratic country. 
  
 To enter the world of the Gaddafi believers is to enter an “Alice in Wonderland” realm in which the regime’s supporters are the real revolutionaries, not the rebels seeking to topple the government, because Libya is in a state of perpetual revolution. 
  
 The Libyan people can’t overthrow their government because they are the government, in accordance with the country’s definition of itself as the Great Socialist People’s Libyan Arab Jamahiriya, which loosely translates as “state of the masses.” 
  
 Gaddafi can’t be toppled because he holds no formal position; he is the Brother Leader, a guide and a mentor, a patriarch and an uncle who advises his people but does not rule them. 
  
 “Brother Leader Moammar Gaddafi and his colleagues are out of the executive completely,” explained Col. Milad Hussein, who is in charge of ideological education for the Libyan military, in a news briefing. “The Libyan people are the ones who do the deciding and the executing . . . because the revolution is the starting point for everything.” 
  
 In reality, said Dirk Vandewalle, a Libya expert and associate professor at Dartmouth College, Gaddafi is the state, the wellspring from whom all decisions and policies spring. Gaddafi is backed by a network of police enforcers and so-called Revolutionary Committees, effectively local vigilantes who keep a close watch on citizens’ activities. 
  
 “The man on the street has no real conviction, but there are nefarious consequences if you don’t support Gaddafi,” Vandewalle said. 
  
 Yet some appear to believe fervently in the government’s pronouncements. In Green Square, small crowds of Gaddafi supporters sustain what is supposed to be a permanent vigil of chanting, dancing and singing in celebration of the so-called perpetual revolution. They are watched over by matronly female guards dressed in camouflage and armed with shiny new AK-47s. 
  
 “He made me feel like a free man. If I don’t hurt anyone, I’m free in my own environment,” said Majdi Daba, a 42-year-old dentist who was born the year Gaddafi wrested power from Libya’s monarchy. Majdi said he goes to the square every day. “Gaddafi gives us advice, that’s all, and when he dies, 7 million people will rule themselves.” 
  
 The regime’s opponents, he said, are interested only in making more money, while most Libyan people are satisfied that the government adequately supports their needs. 
  
 “It’s not complicated,” he said. “This place is different from Egypt. There, a lot of people are poor, a lot of people are hungry, but here there are no poor people, no hungry people.” 
  
 Libya’s role as a sparsely populated, oil-rich state may go some way toward explaining why Gaddafi has been able to retain the support he has. Libya is nearly twice as big as Egypt, yet contains less than one-tenth as many people. Per capita incomes are more than double those in Egypt, where a successful revolt last month inspired Libyans to take to the streets. 
  
 The government funds generous social welfare programs that include free education and health care, helping keep at bay the poverty that has fueled discontent elsewhere. 
  
 “He has done a lot for the country and no one can deny it,” said Mustafa Fetouri, director of the MBA program at the Academy of Graduate Studies in Tripoli. “He’s built hospitals, schools, roads, lots of things.” 
  
 Moreover, he said, the powerful tribal structure that forms the backbone of the government has remained behind Gaddafi, despite initial reports in the early days of the uprising that powerful tribal leaders had defected. Gaddafi has apparently been helped in this regard by making good on a pledge to distribute weapons. 
  
 “There are two kinds of people: those who believe in the regime itself and just don’t care too much about freedom, and then there is the tribal structure, which is behind him,” he said. “The support of the tribes goes beyond Gaddafi to his tribe, and to their relationship with his tribe, which predates Gaddafi. It’s nothing to do with Gaddafi.” ||||| Image caption French Rafale jets have been heavily involved in enforcing the Libyan no-fly zone 
  
 A French warplane has destroyed a Libyan aircraft that had been flying in breach of the UN no-fly zone, French officials say. 
  
 The smaller trainer aircraft had just landed in the besieged city of Misrata when it was attacked, they say. 
  
 It is the first incident of its kind since enforcement of the zone began. 
  
 Meanwhile, Turkey's foreign minister has said Nato will take command of the international mission in Libya within a day or two. 
  
 "Compromise has been reached in principle in a very short time," Ahmet Davutoglu was quoted as saying after a conference call with his US, French and British counterparts. 
  
 Turkey, a Nato member, had earlier raised objections to the organisation taking command without certain conditions first being agreed. 
  
 Reports from Brussels suggest that the mission might be placed under Nato control, but overseen by a military council including some Arab states. 
  
 A senior US military official confirmed the handover could come as early as this weekend. 
  
 'Stop fighting' 
  
 Vice-Admiral Bill Gortney also told a Pentagon briefing that a total of 350 aircraft were now involved in the operation in some way, about half of them American. 
  
 A total of 38 ships were participating, he said, 12 of them from the US. 
  
 Analysis The battle for Misrata is turning into a battle for Libya's future. From reports reaching Tripoli, it looks as though coalition planes destroyed pro-Gaddafi tanks outside the town, while two or more tanks inside the town itself have succeeded in reaching the port. The Libyan plane which was destroyed by the French today was hit at Misrata airport. For the government here, its reported success in Misrata greatly outweighs the destruction of the air force plane. If Col Gaddafi recaptures Misrata, that would give him effective control over almost the whole western part of the country. Government officials here clearly feel now that regime change is becoming a little less likely. If the coalition manages to chase the pro-Gaddafi forces out of Misrata, on the other hand, the future of Col Gaddafi and the people loyal to him would be a lot more in doubt. Tensions on road to Tripoli 
  
 He insisted that Libyan ground forces would continue to be attacked as long as they threatened the lives of civilians. 
  
 "Our message to the regime troops is simple - stop fighting... stop obeying Gaddafi's orders," he said. 
  
 UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon has said there is no sign that the Libyan government is meeting demands for an immediate ceasefire. 
  
 He warned that the UN Security Council would take "additional measures" if Libya did not comply. 
  
 A sixth consecutive night of bombing was reported to be under way on Thursday, with Libyan state television reporting that areas in Tripoli and Tajoura had been hit. 
  
 Dozens of coalition missiles have already hit military bases, with the aim of ending Col Muammar Gaddafi's ability to launch air attacks. 
  
 UK officials said on Wednesday that Libya's air force no longer existed as a fighting force. 
  
 Initial reports of the French action said the Libyan plane, a G-2/Galeb with a single engine, was in the air when it was hit. 
  
 But French military spokesman Col Thierry Burkhard later said the plane had just landed when the attack took place. 
  
 The French jet, a Rafale, fired an air-to-ground missile, other reports said. 
  
 Earlier, the French military said their planes had hit an air base about 250km (155 miles) south of the Libyan coastline, but did not give any further information on the location of the target or the damage. 
  
 Western military planes were also said to have hit the town of Sebha in southern Libya, according to residents and media reports. 
  
 Fresh fighting has meanwhile been reported in Misrata, scene of a bitter battle for control which has lasted for many days.

 One doctor quoted by the AFP news agency said pro-Gaddafi forces had killed more than 100 people and injured 1,300 in the past week. 
  
 Further east in the strategically important city of Ajdabiya, residents described shelling, gunfire and houses on fire. One report said rebels were moving closer to the city but remained out-gunned by pro-Gaddafi forces. 
  
 In the main eastern city of Benghazi, rebel spokesman Mustafa Gheriani told the BBC that 17,000 fighters had set out from the city to join the battle to the west. 
  
 Although he admitted that the rebel forces were on a "learning curve", he insisted that they all knew how to operate their weapons and were committed. 
  
 "We will slowly advance," he said. "[Gaddafi's forces] have no reason to fight, no cause, while we do. 
  
 "We have given so much blood and we're willing to give some more if we have to." 
  
 The International Criminal Court's prosecutor, Luis Moreno-Ocampo, has said he is "100% certain" that charges of crimes against humanity will be brought against Col Gaddafi's regime. 
  
 An initial inquiry should end in May, he said, and a second case might follow to investigate more recent attacks on civilians. 
  
 Nato debate 
  
 Earlier this week Nato members had been holding talks about assuming responsibility for the no-fly zone over Libya, without agreement. 
  
 The US was keen to relinquish control, but there were disagreements about who should take on the role, and what the exact terms of engagement would be. 
  
 Turkey said it wanted any Nato-led action to focus directly on enforcing the no-fly zone and arms embargo, rather than allowing any continuing strikes against ground forces. 
  
 The Turkish parliament has backed a government decision to join the blockade. Four frigates, a submarine and a support vessel are being provided by Turkey. 
  
 In a separate development, African Union chairman Jean Ping has invited members of the Libyan government and opposition to talks in Ethiopia. 
  
 Representatives of the European Union, the UN Security Council and neighbouring countries have also been invited to the talks, scheduled to be held in Addis Ababa on Friday. 
  
 The UK has invited fellow Nato members, the UN, Arab League and African Union, and a number of Arab nations, to a conference in London on Tuesday. |||||
A: 
Despite Libyans’ revolt against their leader, many in the country, and Tripoli in particular, still fervently support Moammar Gadhafi, reports the Washington Post. The paper tells of "near round-the-clock displays of devotion" in the capital, with residents clad in Gadhafi green chanting while holding pictures of their leader. His portrait is everywhere, in fact: hanging from lampposts, displayed in shopping centers and office buildings. One rebel explains that "75% of the people are against him," but "there are some people who really do love him. They think he’s in their blood." "He gave us freedom and everything we need," says a supporter. Oil-rich Libya has supported its people with free health care and education, and per-capita incomes are twice that of Egypt's residents, notes the Post. Meanwhile, in the first enforcement of the no-fly zone, a French warplane destroyed a small Libyan loyalist plane that had been spotted flying, the BBC reports.
