Like an editor said above, some al qaeda are involved in the oposition to him, no doubt, some al qaeda members came from libya, that is a fact , but that is not the same as al qaeda being a full belligerent - the uprising began , Panorama had a full programme on it, Fighting Gaddafi you should watch it - when yellow hats police fired on unarmed ptoesters in Benghazi, they fired at a human rights protest over a massacre of dissenters in 1996, then it escalated when authorities launched a crackdown - 3 days of killing , then though unarmed, using benzine and bulldozers they beat the police and gaddafi soldiers-  - gaddafi began to call them terrorists, scum, al qaeda - if the U.N hadn't intervened he would have  wiped benghazi out 'get ready we are coming tonight to hunt for the scum..' etc - and in the time since  there has been no story that however it began since then al qaeda have assumed a significant , full belligerent role, there just is no RS  material for that story - you put al qaeda as a full belligerent  because of  'good faith' edits . bloody hell, those are probably Gaddafi-ite edits - ever thought of that?
