Gaddafi, in power for four decades, sounded defiant, saying repeatedly he
would not be forced out of by a "crusader alliance" led by the United States,
Britain and France.
In a speech broadcast on state television, he said: "These are only terrorist
actions, but those who will succeed are those who belong to the land, the one
on the land is the one who will win the conflict.
"You are unjust, you are the aggressors, you are beasts, you are criminals.
Your countries are against you. There are protests everywhere in Europe, in
America against the steps you're taking against the innocent Libyan people.
The people are with us, even your people are with us. All the people on earth
are against you.
"You will fail like how Hitler failed, Napoleon failed, Mussolini failed. All
tyrants fall under the feet of the people. This is the era of the people and
the great Gaddafi revolution".
