U.S. may arm Gaddafi rebels

Libyan rebels
The U.S. administration has not ruled out providing military support and arms supplies to Libyan rebels, Ambassador to the UN Susan Rice said on Tuesday.
The U.S. goal is "squeezing Gaddafi's resources and cutting off his money, his mercenaries, his arms, providing assistance to the rebels and the opposition," she said in an interview on ABC's "Good Morning America" show.
Asked whether that could include some military support, Rice said: "We have not made that decision, but we've not certainly ruled that out."
According to some media reports, the U.S. has been looking for a legal framework to allow limited supplies of arms to the rebels if they can prove they need them to defend themselves from attack.
