Moammar Gadhafi issued threats to attack in Europe against "homes, offices, families" but U.S Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said, "Instead of issuing threats, he should be putting the well-being and interests of his own people first." And he should step down from power.

Threats are taking seriously by British officials but there is now special security precautions implemented.

"He's now verbalizing something that we had been preparing for once the military operations began," said a British government official.

NATO launched airstrike to Gadhafis forces and there's a possibility that it was weakened NATO attacks. Clinton said that Gadhafi should stop military operations.

Protecting civilians was NATO's missions and pressure to Gadhafi to stop down was mounting.

"The rebels are gaining strength and momentum," Clinton said. "We need to see this through."

Gaddafi has only ever thought about his own self preservation up to now. Maybe NATO have given him cause to think about something else as well.

Good posting Mary Grace.
