Monday NATO continued to move Col. Gadhafi's forces back with their airstrikes. Despite the bombing the Government is saying that it is making progress in fighting on the ground with the rebels. However it is hard to make sure that is really happening because there have been reports that government officials have been exaggeration the death count of citizens caused by the NATO strikes.
A nurse in a hospital in Libya handed a hand written note to a reporter stating that the 7 month old baby that was said to have been injured during one of these bombings was actually injured in a car accident.
This caused Government officials to come out and say that they have not made any statements about the deaths caused by these strikes.
Despite all the hype that the Libyan Government is making about how well that they are doing NATO has stated that the rebels need to make post-Gadhafi plans so they do not have the same issues that Iraq had in 2003. They say this is necessary because Gadhafi will step down. They are not sure how long it will take but they know it will happen.
