of gadhafi s soldiers still will fight but we understand his hometown of sirte is quiet and people are preparing for the party tomorrow. back to you. thank you very much. it s interesting, and i note some of the graphics are just that, graphic. but the headline in the new york post today, gadhafi killed by a yankee fan. the picture there is of a guy in a yankee cap and apparently there he is right there. he s holding gadhafi s gun. this is a guy who apparently dragged gadhafi out of a sewer. and you did some research into why he was wearing perhaps a yankee cap. it turns out a lot of the clothes that we send out and put in those clothes boxes are taken by an organization called world view and given to third world country. so, for example, the t-shirts that were presented up to say new england patriots super bowl champions where the giants trial beat them, what do you do with them? you send them to another country. that s why a guy in a bruins jersey was pounding on gadhafi with his
he was dead an had bullet wounds to the body. so there is a lot of debate in groups like human rights watch and amnesty are looking now for an investigation into that. but libya is moving on, they are planning large celebrations tomorrow, because the libyan authorities will announce the whole country liberated then, and then, martha, there will be of course a massive party here in tripoli, back to you. martha: unbelievable scenes we have seen on that video and playing out on the ground. thank you very much. the new york post zeroing in on moammar qaddafi s killer, echoing arab media reports that a 20-year-old gun-slinging yankee fan fired the fatal shot. look at that, that was the headline we woke up to here in new york. moammar qaddafi killed by yankee fan. the dictator as we saw in this incredible hard to watch rid kwroe pulled from a drainage pipe trying to escape his hometown of sirte. the young man that we have shown
misrata. it seems mother morbid, but understand the people there have been through a terrible time. we ve traveled there and many parts of the city have been destroyed by gadhafi s forces. at the same time today, nato has confirmed that they did hit gadhafi s convoy, but they didn t know he was actually on board one of those vehicles and they said they didn t target him despite protests from russia. nato has said it s scaling down its operation in libya. celebrations have been ongoing today. we ve been hearing celebratory gun fire right through this evening. they re really preparing for a party on sunday now when it will be announced that libya has been totally liberated after gadhafi s hometown of sirte was captured yesterday. back to you, harris. harris: david piper reporting live tonight. thank you very much. president obama today signing a series of free trade agreements which together are said to be
between 3 to 5,000 troops for contingencies, but a divided iraqi government could not reach an agreement that would give american forces some immunity from iraq s laws. the iraq war costing the u.s. more than $800 billion when all is said and done, and claiming the lives of more than 3500 american service members. many more wounded. we re getting details now on the death of moammar qaddafi as people across libya celebrate the law of the brutal dictator, his life ending where it began in his hometown of sirte. we are learning more about the very last violent moments of moammar qaddafi s life. jennifer griffin is investigating this for us. live from the pentagon, hey, jennifer. reporter: moammar qaddafi was supposed to be buried today in an unmarked grave but clearly the new government is deciding not to keep with muslim tradition, not to bury him within the first 24 hours. his body is still being essentially moved around, but
gleefully overran his compound in tripoli. since taking tripoli, rebels consolidated gains. took control of basically every city and every region in libbo except for gadhafi s hometown of sirte. today sirte fell to the rebels. reportedly while fleeing sirte, moammar gadhafi was killed. i want to show some of what we know happened today. fair warning here, some of these images are a little bit graphic. we will not show them for very long. these images show gadhafi apparently wounded. maybe still alive. but captured in the back of some vehicle. you can see gadhafi raising his arm here, see, as he is being pushed around. people around him taking pictures with him. you can here gunfire, presumably celebratory gunfire, though we don t know, in the background. other footage, obviously chaotic. showing gadhafi s ded body on the ground. after a lot of conflicting
